ABOUT JEROME PANOFF
Over 15 years running businesses and shaping the leadership teams inside them — most recently leading 8 VP-level executive searches at Siemens Advanta in partnership with Russell Reynolds, while owning a €10M+ AI consulting P&L. That dual track — operator and talent advisor in the same role — is where I work best. My background spans McKinsey, portfolio side of private equity (Navico / Altor), and senior leadership at Siemens across Munich, India, and global mandates. I have built and scaled consulting businesses, turned around underperforming organisations, and advised C-suite leaders on the leadership decisions that ultimately determine whether strategies succeed or fail. I am now focused on bringing this combination of experience to executive search and leadership advisory — working with professional services firms, AI-driven organisations, and DACH industrials on their most consequential leadership hires.The leadership decisions that determine whether strategies succeed are rarely the ones that get the most attention. I\'m always open to conversations at the intersection of leadership, professional services, and AI — whether that\'s a talent or leadership challenge, an organisational question, or simply a good debate about where the industry is heading.
