Caber Hill Advisors Adds to Management Team to Accommodate Growth in Middle Market M&A Activity

CHICAGO - March 11, 2025 - PRLog -- Caber Hill Advisors, the leading advisory firm for privately held, middle-market businesses, today announced the addition of Brian Steffens to its team of Managing Directors. Steffens, who brings over 10 years of M&A executional experience to the firm, joins Caber Hill Advisors to help accelerate the increase in M&A activity seen in its priority sectors of healthcare, facility services, manufacturing, and business services.

In his career Steffens has a wide range of experience, representing both buyers and sellers who include large corporate, middle market, and private equity clients.

"It's exciting to add someone of Brian's caliber to the Caber Hill team," said Craig Castelli, Caber Hill Advisors Founder & CEO. "His experience adds another layer to the expertise we currently have in-house, and his work on the buy side is an especially valuable asset as we anticipate a wave of exits in 2025 from private equity firms that are accumulating aging assets and in need of liquidity events."

Caber Hill Advisors recently conducted a survey of private equity investors (https://caberhill.com/private-equity-survey-middle-market...) whose responses point to favorable conditions for M&A activity in the upcoming year, citing a substantial supply of available capital, robust macroeconomic growth, ongoing industry consolidation, and favorable financing options in a lower interest rate environment.

"Craig Castelli has built a dynamic team at Caber Hill," said Steffens. "I'm thrilled to join a firm with a strong reputation in the industry for delivering great outcomes for their clients. Craig's vision for growth aligns perfectly with my own and I'm looking forward to making an immediate impact for Caber Hill and the businesses we advise."

Prior to joining Caber Hill, Steffens was a buy-side M&A advisor at G2 Capital Advisors. He began his career with the Big 4 accounting firms of PriceWaterhouseCoopers and Deloitte. Steffens holds degrees and professional certifications from Indiana University and Pepperdine University.
