Avila has joined Lense & Lumen Advisory Group, an international executive search alliance. Lense & Lumen operates in 18 countries and across more than 25 industries, and its member firms have collectively completed over 1,750 executive search assignments. This membership strengthens Avila’s position in executive search and creates new opportunities to serve our clients more broadly, including in international assignments.
“Over the years, we have had discussions with several international networks, but it has been important for us to find a partnership that brings real value to our clients and supports our own development. What impressed us about Lense & Lumen was the strong position of its member firms in their local markets, their shared values and their ambition to develop the industry. This is an important step towards our goal of strengthening our position in executive search and offering our clients greater international reach,” says Mikko Savusalo from Avila.
Local market expertise meets international collaboration
Lense & Lumen’s partners are independent executive search firms with strong expertise and extensive experience in senior leadership recruitment. The alliance’s strength lies in its members’ deep understanding of their local markets and their expertise in leadership development. Together, these capabilities make the global alliance a trusted partner for executive search assignments.
“Lense & Lumen has a strong, forward-looking approach and a clear sense of energy and ambition in the way its members work together. We were particularly impressed by the network’s strong presence in Europe and the significant positions many of its member firms hold in their local markets. It is great to be part of this group and to have the opportunity to develop our business together,” says Savusalo.
International collaboration expands our capabilities and brings new perspectives to the development of our own executive search expertise. It also strengthens our ability to support clients across borders. As a member of the alliance, we can help Finnish companies with international executive search assignments through our trusted local partners. At the same time, we bring our expertise in the Finnish market to international companies.
The partnership supports the growth of Avila’s executive search business
Joining Lense & Lumen Advisory Group is part of Avila’s ongoing development and growth in executive search. Our goal is to strengthen our position as a local executive search partner in Finland while expanding our ability to serve clients in international assignments.
Through this membership, we gain access to a network of experienced executive search professionals around the world, as well as broader market data and insights across Europe. In return, Avila represents Finland within the alliance, providing local market knowledge and expertise.
We are very pleased to begin this collaboration and look forward to the new opportunities it brings for both our clients and Avila.
