Former Tennenbaum Capital Partners Managing Partner and Veteran Credit Investor Joins Comvest’s Leadership Team

Comvest Partners (“Comvest”), an operationally-focused middle-market private investment firm, today announced that private credit investment veteran Lee Landrum has joined the firm as a Partner and Head of Investor Relations.

Mr. Landrum will manage Comvest’s relationships with investors globally across the firm’s private equity, direct lending, and special opportunities investment strategies, and will serve as a voting member on the investment committees for Comvest’s direct lending and special opportunities funds.

“We are thrilled to welcome Lee to Comvest’s leadership team,” said Michael Falk, Comvest’s founder and Chief Executive Officer. “Lee is an outstanding leader with extensive alternative investment experience and a background that spans the capital structure. We look forward to Lee’s leadership as Comvest continues to expand its investment capabilities and solutions for a broad base of global investors.”

“Lee’s specific experience in the private credit markets, collaborative leadership style and proven track record with institutional investors are a perfect complement for Comvest at an exciting stage of our firm’s growth,” added Robert O’Sullivan, Managing Partner and co-founder of Comvest Credit Partners, Comvest’s direct lending investment platform.

Mr. Landrum brings approximately 30 years of experience working with middle-market companies from an early career in investment banking and more than two decades in alternative investments at some of the world’s preeminent global asset management firms. He joins Comvest from Tennenbaum Capital Partners’ successor organization (BlackRock), where he most recently was a Managing Director on the U.S. Private Credit Team of BlackRock Financial Management, Inc.
