River Partnership is an executive search firm whose mission is to assist leading firms and corporations to significantly improve performance by attracting, recruiting, retaining and developing the most talented people in the market.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) forms an important part of every piece of research and search project that we undertake.
We are proud of the strategic client partnerships we have developed in this space with brands like Kearney, CVC and Deutsche Bank. We also pride ourselves on the thought leadership we curate in this space and are increasingly sought as an expert partner on DEI with clients across our portfolio.
We have seen first-hand the decisive impact that more diverse teams can have and consider these values not only as a matter of fairness, but also of effective governance and inclusive economic growth.
