Legal & Risk Officers
Empowering Growth with Strategic People Leaders
We are dedicated to delivering outstanding results in our executive search within the Legal & Risk Officers Practice. Our focus on excellence ensures that we present our clients with exceptional candidates who possess the ability to propel their organisations towards long-term success.
In a complex, evolving global business and political environment with increased scrutiny and demands around legal, compliance and government affairs matters, the recruitment of world-class general counsel, senior in-house lawyers, chief compliance officers and government affairs leaders is critical. Whether it is the pressures from public and private shareholders to myriad stakeholders and ever-expanding regulatory frameworks, organizations face a seemingly never-ending labyrinth of hurdles.
The legal market is undergoing a period of profound change. Profitability pressures, the emergence of alternative legal service providers and elite talent demands are changing the rules of the legal recruitment and retention game.
