Gordon Stanley

Gordon co-leads our Global Growth practice (Revenue, Product, Marketing) and also our Board, CEO and general management practice when relevant to financial services and related industries. He also leads the global Payments and Fintech sector and drives client activity across banking and asset and wealth management. He has been with the business for 13 years and started with us as a consultant where he quickly established himself in retail/consumer banking sector in the UK and broader geographies. He bases himself from the London office but lives outside Bath with his family and has a remit that covers UK, USA, continental Europe and Middle East and Africa.

Gordon’s experience of working across these geographies gives him an appreciation of different cultures and companies and has allowed him to build and evolve relationships across the globe. He builds strong relationships with clients, candidates and colleagues and believes that all are equally important and places a strong emphasis on developing more junior colleagues to progress through their careers. Clients keep coming back to him because of his strong execution ethic.

Gordon is seen as a true partner to many of his clients as they seek advice on how and who they should hire into corporate functions. He has a strong lean towards the role that technology and product play and how this forms the next generation CEO leaders.

Gordon has sat on various panels and often publishes thought leadership articles on his specialist sectors. When not working he can be seen hiking, boxing, dancing or cooking and not always in that order.
