RECENT CASE STUDY, CEO MIDDLE EAST heading

  • The Client

Our client was a major top-tier global asset management and private banking organization. They are headquartered in Europe, have roughly $200 billion in assets under management, more than 2,500 staff, and serve a global client base.

  • The Project

Our client had little visibility in the Middle East, despite the huge upside fundraising potential that the region represented, with its plethora of sovereign wealth funds, pension funds and family offices, particularly in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar.

The requirement was for a ME-based diversity hire who had an outstanding reputation in the market, an established in-region client base, and was comfortable with selling to a discerning group of investor clients, both new and established.

RECENT CASE STUDY

  • Our Search Process

Because the client wanted a game-changing individual with best-in-class experience and credibility, we targeted the most successful and premium global and international asset management organizations who had an established and well-regarded presence in the Middle East offering sophisticated product solutions.

Our dedicated, extensive and methodological approach, combined with our advantageous no off-limits candidates pool, and our own extensive in-market network generated significant interest in the position.

  • The Result

After a comprehensive selection and evaluation process, from amongst a short-list of three exceptional finalists, a standout candidate emerged and was successfully offered the position.

She came with a stellar resume, reputation, skill-set, and experience (she was jumping from a big brand in the market), but was also candid and authentic, showing genuine affection and passion for the products.
