Case Studies

Professional Services Firm 

Practice Build-Out

After finding an acquisition and several Partner-level hires for this client (the largest professional services/accounting firm in the world), we built out their advisory practice with further Partner-track hires and Engagement Managers in key sectors. Key rainmaker hires had track records of multi-million dollar annual engagements with individual Fortune 500 clients.

​

"In total, our client secured 15 hires from 17 offers, almost all with top strategy firm and Ivy pedigree or deep sustainability expertise"

​

Successful hires brought

  • extensive experience identifying the business implications of global mega-trends and sustainability

  • C-level access across a broad range of high-profile clients

  • outstanding track records in leadership: “Authentic , straightforward, innovative, creative”

  • deep experience of effectively managing teams of consultants over long duration, multi-phase engagements

  • demonstrated subject matter expertise and desire to develop and extend thought leadership in the space.   

​

In total, our client secured 15 hires from 17 offers, almost all with top strategy firm and Ivy pedigree or deep sustainability expertise - and most with both. As a result the practice went from averaging $50K per engagement to $350K per engagement, with several multi-million dollar engagements, whereas previously the largest had been under $500K.
