Jordan Gersh brings over a decade of deep expertise combining corporate finance, strategic M&A advisory, and private equity execution to his role as Managing Director & CFO. Mr. Gersh guides mid-market, founder-led and GovCon firms through the deal cycle—from rigorous due diligence and valuation analysis to negotiation and closing. A self-proclaimed “Excel geek,” Gersh says, “I have to enjoy the work and enjoy the people, and I get enormous personal gratification from helping business owners lift off with my team at sbLiftOff.”
Says CEO Sharon Heaton, “Jordan has become a critical player at sbLiftOff, not only improving our internal deal processes but also partnering with our clients to navigate what for many is the largest financial transaction of their life.” Gersh joined the company ownership circle in 2026.
Prior to sbLiftOff, Mr. Gersh worked at FIS Global (NYSE: FIS), climbing the corporate ladder of this global FinTech behemoth, which boasts more than $10 billion in annual revenues. Mr. Gersh ended his career at FIS Global as Senior Director of Investment Capital, with over $10 billion in aggregate M&A transaction value booked, leading a team responsible for $1 billion in annual capital management. “sbLiftOff is a little different from other national M&A firms,” says Gersh. “Not only do we bring industry expertise and execution prowess, but I’m glad to say we also bring humanity to investment banking.”
Mr. Gersh holds an MBA from Duke University (Fuqua School of Business), where he received the prestigious Fuqua Scholar honor, and graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Finance from the University of Florida.
