Charterhouse Strategic Partners

Charterhouse Strategic Partners is a private equity firm led by Managing Directors Tom Dircks and William Landuyt, and Principal Steve Dircks — veterans who previously managed Charterhouse's multi-billion-dollar institutional private equity funds. The firm evaluates direct investment opportunities across public and private markets. It invests its own capital alongside management teams and existing shareholders rather than relying solely on outside limited partners, bringing decades of boardroom and value-creation experience as former chairmen, CEOs, and directors of public and private companies. Current focus areas include crypto rails infrastructure, telecommunications, and AI infrastructure, targeting North American companies with experienced management and growing market positions. Portfolio holdings include Diamond Communications, Charter Digital, Suburban Propane, and TierPoint.
