People

You work with the partner, not the pitch.

The person who earns your trust is the person who does the work. Every mandate is partner-led, from the first conversation to the ninety-day follow-up.

How we work

Every mandate at ROES is owned by a partner. Not assigned to one after the pitch, not handed to a researcher once the brief is signed. Owned, from first conversation to the ninety-day check-in.

We have been advising leadership across the Gulf for twenty years. The relationships that makes possible are not in a database. They are the reason clients come back.

International reach

Global expertise, applied to the Gulf.

The best senior hires for Gulf organisations frequently come from beyond the region. We maintain active networks across the financial centres and talent pools that feed the GCC, and we know how to make a credible approach in each of them.

Middle East

UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman. Two decades of relationships built inside the markets that matter.

Europe

London, Paris, Frankfurt, Zurich. Access to senior talent in financial services, private equity, and family offices with cross-border mandates.

North America

New York, Toronto. Coverage of global banks, asset managers, and technology firms that move talent into and out of the Gulf.

Asia Pacific

Singapore, Hong Kong. Regional executives who have operated across both markets, particularly in sovereign wealth and infrastructure.

We hire the same way we advise. If that is you, write to us.
