Who we are
The people behind the counsel
We work in small senior teams on a handful of engagements at a time - so the thinking stays sharp, and the partner you meet is the one who does the work.
Our story
We built the firm we could not hire
Palladio started in 2019, after twenty years of watching capable boards pay a great deal for careful advice that nobody could act on, and then quietly shelve it a quarter later.

Careers
We hire rarely and carefully
Every role here is senior, and every one of them is in the room. If you have run the meeting before, we would rather hear from you than from your recruiter.
Nothing that fits?
Write to us anyway. We have made a role for the right person more than once, and we would rather meet you early than not at all.

Questions
Asked before you ask
The twelve things boards want to know before they call, answered the way we would answer them in the room.
Still not answered?
Ask it on the call. Thirty minutes, no commitment, and you get a straight answer either way.
