Industrials & Family Business
In an owner-led company the search starts with the family. We spend the first weeks listening to everyone who will live with the decision.

Mathilde Varenne
Managing directors and successors in owner-led industrial companies
We work with engineering and manufacturing businesses in France, Germany, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, many of them owned by the family that founded them.
What we do differently
Succession mandates begin with separate conversations with each family member involved. A longlist is built only once everyone agrees on what the company needs next.
We often stay close after the appointment, to support the first year of the handover.
