Attorney Catherine Nathan Sets the Standard for Cross Border and National Retained Legal Search
NEW YORK, May 9, 2000 -- TMP Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: TMPW; ASX: TMP), the leading provider of global recruitment solutions, including the dominant Internet career portal, Monster.com, and one of the world's largest search and selection agencies, announced today that it has appointed attorney Catherine R. Nathan as Head of TMP Worldwide Executive Search's Global Legal Search Practice Group. With Ms. Nathan's appointment, TMP Worldwide Executive Search has solidified its reputation as one of the leaders in retained legal search.
TMP Worldwide Executive Search established its unique Legal Search Practice Group to provide retained legal search expertise to major corporations, financial institutions and prominent New York and national law firms. Dedicated professionals deliver quality service in an area of search that has become increasingly important as today's general counsel participates fully as a critical member of the senior management team of major corporations.
Steve Potter, CEO of TMP Worldwide's Executive Search Division, said: “We feel that Catherine has set the standard for retained legal search. Her clients rely on her legal background and ability to quickly understand the substantive and personality requirements they are searching for in their next general counsel. She brings an unusually high level of expertise to the legal search profession.”
Ms. Nathan joined TMP Worldwide Executive Search in September 1999. Since 1988, Ms. Nathan has developed a successful retained executive legal search practice. She has recruited attorneys across the entire spectrum of the legal community, including general counsels, senior in-house lawyers and partners for major corporations, financial institutions and law firms. Corporations for which she has successfully completed general counsel searches include Harley-Davidson, Pitney Bowes, Reuters America, Diageo Plc, Medtronic, Nokia Inc., Instinet, GE Capital Global Consumer Finance, Barclays Bank, and Exel Insurance Co. Ltd. She has also recruited senior level lawyers for GE Capital, PepsiCo, Owens Corning, Becton Dickinson, Eli Lilly, Frito-Lay and for many of the previously listed companies. Her law firm work includes partner searches for Simpson Thacher & Bartlett; Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison; Arnold & Porter; Morgan, Lewis & Bockius; Chadbourne & Parke; Stroock & Stroock & Lavan; and Baker & Botts.
Ms. Nathan earned her law degree from Boalt Hall School of Law, University of California at Berkeley, and her undergraduate degree as an Honors Major in Russian Studies from the University of Pennsylvania. For six years following law school, Ms. Nathan practiced corporate law and litigation with two Wall Street law firms, Chadbourne & Parke and Patterson, Belknap, Webb & Tyler. While serving as a Labor Arbitrator with the American Arbitration Association, Ms. Nathan joined the New York City Office of Collective Bargaining where she conducted hearings and recommended decisions to resolve labor disputes between the City of New York and its various labor unions.
