Experienced advice. Directly from the person you hired.

Selling a business you have spent years building is not an ordinary transaction. For most owners, it happens once. The decisions made along the way can affect not only the value you realize, but your employees, your family, and what happens to the business after you leave.

JWC was built around a straightforward idea: owners deserve experienced, senior-level advice throughout that process.

When you work with JWC, you work directly with Joshua Wolf—from the first conversation through closing. There is no handoff to a junior deal team.

Josh has spent more than 25 years in M&A and corporate finance, advising business owners and companies on transactions and financing.

Before establishing JWC, Josh spent eight years as a Managing Director with Cetane Associates, where he advised on 45 completed sell-side M&A transactions. Earlier in his career, he held corporate and investment banking positions with Mizuho Corporate Bank, ABN AMRO and Crédit Lyonnais in New York.

That experience shapes how JWC approaches a sale: prepare carefully, understand what makes the business valuable, create competition among qualified buyers, and manage the process through closing.

Josh holds a BBA from Emory University and is a CFA charterholder.

Focused on Industrial Services

JWC focuses exclusively on founder- and family-owned industrial services businesses.

We understand that the value of these companies often extends well beyond the financial statements. Skilled employees, customer relationships, safety performance, technical capabilities, reputation, and years of operating know-how can all matter to a buyer.

Our job is to understand those attributes, communicate them effectively to the market, and run a disciplined process designed to give the owner choices—not simply find the first available buyer.

Senior Attention Throughout the Process

JWC intentionally limits the number of engagements we undertake so each client receives meaningful senior-level attention throughout the process.

That means being accessible when an owner has a question, personally handling negotiations and buyer interactions, and staying closely involved when issues inevitably arise during diligence and closing.

For an owner, the objective is simple: know who is representing you, know where the process stands, and know that the person you hired remains personally engaged from beginning to end.
