TORONTO, July 10, 2019 /CNW/ - To meet clients' evolving and complex talent needs, Lee Hecht Harrison Knightsbridge (LHH Knightsbridge) is pleased to announce that it has expanded its Executive Search, Recruitment Solutions and Executive Interim Management teams.
The rapid growth strategy driven by market demand—which includes the addition of five new partners (two located in Montreal and Vancouver), a bolstered presence in Toronto and planned expansion into the US market—is designed to further strengthen the company's existing commitment to top-tier Executive and Leadership Search Practice aligned with LHH Knightsbridge's leadership and cutting-edge assessment, onboarding, leadership development and coaching solutions.
These new additions now complete the team of 18 highly talented partners, with extensive experience and expertise across a wide-range of sectors and geographies.

This new team of partners is comprised of five industry veterans, each of whom brings unique expertise to the Search Practices:

Leveraging 30 years of executive recruitment experience, with 15 years in senior leadership roles, Marc's sector expertise, at the Montreal office, will include government, education, arts media and culture, retail and distribution, transportation, consumer goods, communications and technology.
