He advises law firms on cross\u2011border recruitment, strategic expansion and long\u2011term growth across key international legal markets, including Europe and offshore jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his role, Harrison works closely with law firms on international hiring strategy, supporting the establishment and expansion of practices outside their home jurisdictions. His work often involves advising on senior\u2011level and partner\u2011level appointments, as well as helping firms build new teams and capabilities to support sustainable, long\u2011term growth.
