Global integrated executive search and leadership advisory firm, Odgers, has welcomed its new new Warsaw office – joining the Odgers network from Amrop. This strategic addition further strengthens the firm’s international presence and underscores its commitment to supporting clients and candidates across Europe. With this latest addition, Odgers now operates 59 offices across 33 countries worldwide, including 18 offices across the European continent.
Poland represents a dynamic and growing market, offering significant opportunities for global businesses seeking to strengthen their leadership capabilities in Central and Eastern Europe. The new Warsaw office enhances Odgers’ ability to deliver tailored, integrated executive search and leadership services across the region.
As Poland continues its trajectory of robust economic growth—recording a 2.9 per cent GDP increase in 2024 and a projected 3.4 per cent in 2025 – demand for senior leadership and talent development has never been higher. The country’s strategic role in the region makes it a prime location for Odgers to deepen its support for both multinational and domestic clients navigating complex leadership challenges.
The Warsaw team, established in 1993, brings unparalleled depth in the Polish executive search market. With over 1,400 successful senior-level placements—including more than 300 CEOs and general managers—the team is known for its nuanced market insight and longstanding client partnerships across Industrial, Consumer, Life Sciences, Digital, Private Equity, and more.
“Poland is one of Europe’s most exciting and resilient economies, and the addition of our Warsaw office represents a strategic milestone in our continued international growth,” comments Kester Scrope, CEO of Odgers. “This experienced team brings exceptional insight, local market knowledge, and a strong leadership track record that will allow us to better serve our clients across the region.”
Looking ahead, the Warsaw office will serve as a regional hub for leadership transformation, helping clients navigate cross-border talent needs, succession planning, digital transformation, and boardroom effectiveness amid an increasingly competitive talent landscape.
Maciej Bednarczyk, Managing Partner of Odgers Poland, commented: “Our team has built a strong reputation across Poland and the CEE region by delivering tailored, integrated executive search solutions. Becoming part of Odgers will strengthen our market proposition, allowing us to combine local insight with global reach. We share the same values and vision – to challenge convention and be the first-choice partner for leadership appointments. Together, we’re poised to enhance our impact, grow our team, and continue delivering exceptional service to our clients.”
