Prior to founding Blount Capital Management, Josh was a strategy consultant at Boston Consulting Group, where he was embedded with a top-5 global energy company on corporate finance and strategy initiatives. He helped leadership establish performance benchmarks and long-range planning frameworks across 1, 3, 5, and 10+ year horizons — the kind of institutional discipline that now defines how BCM underwrites and operates every asset it acquires.

Before BCG, Josh was a consultant at Rockwell Automation, where his engagements ranged from conducting end-to-end operational due diligence — R&D through client service and returns — on an $11 billion medical device company ultimately acquired by Johnson & Johnson, to advising a family office on its self-storage portfolio. That self-storage engagement focused on two questions that would later become central to BCM's thesis: how to drive facility-level efficiency through technology, and how to operate those technology solutions themselves as efficiently as possible by placing the right automation in the right places. It was Josh's first exposure to how much operational upside sits inside a self-storage facility when you apply institutional rigor to a sector that rarely sees it.

Earlier, he spent seven years at CAZ Investments, helping scale institutional investment operations from $300 million to over $2 billion in assets under management. His team conducted buy-side due diligence on hundreds of private market opportunities across asset classes, developing the discipline of identifying genuine competitive advantages versus market-driven performance.
