“Enspira is delighted to welcome Dan Lee as our first CFO. He has been both an investor and operator in his professional career, which serves him and Enspira well in this new role. Given his investment background and our likely need for growth capital to execute on our ambitious goals, he knows what investors look for in companies. In addition, he previously served as the CFO of a private equity-backed software and services business and raised additional capital from the financial sponsor, so he understands the unique opportunities and challenges of a services and software business. As we build and grow our software offerings, his insight and experience will be invaluable,” said Enspira Founder and CEO Kurt Landon.

“As an early investor in Enspira, I have witnessed the incredible growth and innovation that Enspira is doing in the HR space,” said Lee. “Enspira is at a stage of its growth trajectory where my background fits incredibly well with its financial leadership needs, and I couldn’t miss an opportunity to work with a team for which I have the utmost respect. The culture at Enspira that Kurt Landon and the entire leadership has created is among the most unique I have seen.”
