Leadership

Setting the standards for success

Situated in London and led by the CEO and COO, the Global Office supports the day-to-day leadership and management of Baker Tilly International. It recommends the policies and regulations to govern and manage the network ensuring alignment in executing the global strategy.

We also have an International Board which is made up of at least 15 senior partners drawn from member firms across our global network. Baker Tilly looks to these leaders for direction on our values and standards, the procedures governing our operations worldwide – and to set the path for our CEO and Global Office team.

Board directors come from all of our regions and represent firms of every size. The International Board meets in person twice a year, and on other occasions as needed.
