Building a US Financial Services Consulting Practice

 

Situation:

River entered a Partnership with the Global Head of FS to build out capabilities in New York and Charlotte across Banking, Wealth and Asset Management and Climate Risk. 

Outcome:

2 Partner placements – New York and Charlotte. 

River was able to assimilate a complex set of briefs, manage a broad and diverse global stakeholder community, and ultimately deliver mapping, market insights and well qualified candidate shortlists across both New York and Charlotte markets; meeting all quality expectations ahead of schedule. The longlist contained approx. 60%/40% male/female spilt, as we strove to identify a diverse talent pool.
