About Dennis Hoffman
Business-minded legal executive passionate about aligning legal strategy with business performance and purpose. As Senior Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary at Greif, Inc, I lead global legal affairs, governance, compliance, M&A, intellectual property, and risk management across more than 35 countries. Throughout my career, I’ve focused on building high-performing, collaborative teams that add measurable value to the enterprise. I believe the legal function should be both a protector and an enabler — a strategic partner that drives ethical, sustainable growth and supports innovation across the organization. My approach blends business acumen with calm, practical judgment. I’ve guided companies through complex transactions, regulatory challenges, and transformational initiatives.
