Steadman & Chase Information

Steadman & Chase is a boutique headhunting firm operating from London, New York, and Düsseldorf, trusted by market-leading organisations across Legal and Technology. Our Legal practice appoints General Counsel and senior in-house legal leadership, Chief Privacy Officers and Group Data Protection Officers, Chief Compliance Officers and Global Heads of Investigations, and the counsel leading AI governance across the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001, including counsel inside defence, national security, and government contracting. Our Technology practice appoints Heads of AI and machine learning leads, cloud and data engineering leaders, senior systems engineering leaders, and the AI governance engineers who make regulation hold in production. These appointments increasingly sit where law meets technology, and the Talent Vault™ holds both sides of that market. We partner with clients and candidates operating at the highest level. The network is built on trust, and professionals engage with us directly, frequently outside the visible job market. Talent Vault™ is our UK trademarked executive search framework, supported by a proprietary Python-based labour market intelligence pipeline. Qualified shortlists are delivered within 48 to 72 hours, off-market and in strict confidence. Our core regions are EMEA, the Americas, and APAC. We support clients through retained, contingent, scale-up, and contract engagements, alongside complimentary graduate and HR hiring programmes that build sustainable, high-calibre leadership pipelines. For candidates, we act as trusted career advisors, guiding pivotal, long-term moves with discretion. LONDON | NEW YORK | DÜSSELDORF
