Class Valuation names Daniel Busch as CFO

Real estate appraisal management company Class Valuation announced Wednesday that Daniel A. Busch has joined the company as its chief financial officer.

Busch, who brings more than two decades of financial leadership experience to the role, most recently served as CFO of Continental Services, a private equity-backed provider of food service management solutions operating across five states.

As CFO at Continental, Busch is also credited with having helped the company grow nearly fivefold through organic expansion and 18 acquisitions. He built finance, tax, treasury and M&A functions, and he established a data analytics team that introduced workflow automations and performance dashboards, boosting same-store sales while cutting labor costs and stockouts.

Busch holds an executive MBA from the University of Michigan and a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of Colorado at Boulder.
