Since 1980, we’ve expected nothing less and neither should you.

“Our President for North America is the most effective and capable CEO I have worked with. The JM Search Team brought us a leader who has a growth mindset, a proven track record of scaling businesses as a GM/ President with P&L ownership, and leads with a profound customer-centric approach. Additionally, having exposure to fintech was a non-negotiable for us, making our new North American leader a perfect fit. Thank you for helping us identify the unicorn we were searching for… she will lead us to great success!”
