Boards of directors, CEOs, and senior leaders have dramatically redefined the role of General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officers. Risk management, a framework of global regulations across industries, and the complexity of managing intellectual property in a technology-enabled world are just a few of the pressures and responsibilities Legal executives face. As companies grow and expand, the complexity of their legal function follows suit — and not all lawyers are created equal. You require top talent who thinks strategically and acts proactively to protect your organization and respond to opportunities. As General Counsel and other legal executives take on the role of “company conscience,” they must walk a fine line between ethics and integrity while leveraging the law to your full advantage.

Our experienced consultants have worked with the Ireland’s leading companies to help them identify their legal leadership’s potential, drive development, accelerate readiness, and energize transitions. Our global reach and local knowledge ensure that you have the highest calibre of talent available to you, while building a solid Legal team to support and facilitate your business.
