London Office Reception

Hans Klaus, Ruth Metzler-Arnold and Daniel Eckmann have been supporting and advising leaders, companies and organizations since spring 2011. The former companions in federal Bern - Klaus was Federal Councillor Metzler's head of information and media spokesperson, Eckmann was Federal Councillor Kaspar Villiger's delegate for communications - work as independent consultants in Zurich, Appenzell and Murten and operate together under the name "Klaus-Metzler-Eckmann. Strategy, Leadership, Communication".

At the beginning of July, the consultants opened an office in London to support their international clients. With its presence in the financial and commercial metropolis, the consultancy aims to become more interesting for foreign clients - both for internationally active companies that prefer to come to London rather than Zurich, as well as for companies and corporations that have their headquarters in the English capital. On the other hand, local companies should also benefit from the additional base abroad: "The office in London also makes us attractive for Swiss companies that operate internationally," emphasizes Klaus. "From an international communications perspective, London is the most important European city." London is also a hub for litigation cases, which are becoming increasingly important for Klaus-Metzler-Eckmann. The consultants are increasingly being asked by clients to support them in legal disputes.

The London offices will be managed by the lead partner Klaus, who will regularly look after the Berkeley Square office. Operationally, Klaus-Metzler-Eckmann will work closely in London with Jauch Associates, a consultancy specializing in executive search and organizational development in the financial industry, which is headquartered in Zurich.
