Emily Slocum

Emily is the global head of Client Services, operating out of New York. She focuses on partnering with clients in additional ways aside from GQR’s main service – talent acquisition. While GQR assists companies in securing elite talent, Emily’s Client Services division supports businesses in three other key areas: employer branding, events and experiences and People Intelligence.

Her goal is to attract and retain top talent while improving the culture, image and mission of GQR’s clients at the same time. Through assessing research analytics, surveys and trends, her team assists clients in boosting workplace motivation, engagement and performance metrics.

Emily joined GQR tasked with growing out a recruitment team while the New York office was only six people strong. Today, GQR is the fastest-growing privately owned talent acquisition business in America and spans six offices globally.

Emily is a global board member of the Hedge Fund Association, deputy director for the New York Chapter of PRMIA, and a supporter of 100 Women in Finance, Help for Children, Smile Train, and A Leg to Stand on.

Emily and her team are gearing up to host more than 30 events each year to drive thought leadership across the finance industry and increase peer and company collaboration.
