Continuing its post-acquisition expansion under Alvarez & Marsal’s LSS Strategic Partners, the hires come as the firm reports 146% growth since its relaunch, with additional appointments expected to bring headcount close to double its original size in the coming months.

The five new partners joining, and leading sector-specific practices, are: Graham Michener, head of financial services; Jamie Page, head of industrial and real assets; Nick Carrad, law firms; Scott Reid, head of commodities; and Carlos Garcia, supply chain, operations and procurement.

ECB STAR Group now operates four service lines: executive search, project-based advisory under the Milestone brand, on-demand recruitment (RPO) and pre-deal services. The firm continues to focus on growth across core industries including law, healthcare, infrastructure, technology and financial services.
