June 13, 2016 – Russell Reynolds Associates has opened an office in Montreal. Brigitte Simard, a managing director with international executive search experience, has been appointed to lead the firm’s new operations.

She conducts executive searches and works with boards across a number of functional areas, including financial services and the retail industry. She is involved in the business community of Greater Montreal, sitting on the Montreal board of the Canadian Club, serving as a member of Women in Quebec Finances as well as the International Women’s Forum and the Women Corporate Director.
