Clients regard as a key strength his tenacity in driving a search towards successful delivery of both the hire and the strategic objectives of the search. Rob is known for having very deep and detailed market knowledge. He gives advice based on strong market understanding. His practice covers a mix of retained/exclusive partner searches as well as representing individual partners and teams. He has been involved in facilitating a number of targeted merger discussions.
