London's economy in one paragraph
London is one of the two largest financial centres in the world, home to the London Stock Exchange, the Bank of England, and the majority of the UK's FTSE 100 corporate headquarters. Beyond financial services, London anchors professional services (legal, consulting, accounting), technology and fintech, media and creative industries, life sciences, and a vast base of multinational European and cross-Atlantic corporate headquarters.

How we work in London
Anker Bioss is the organization and people advisory firm — not an executive-search firm. The London office runs the international advisory practice: board and CEO succession, organization design, leadership assessment and development, and the institutional / organizational / individual capability advisory that the Anker Bioss Framework is built around.
Typical London engagements
- Board and non-executive director search advisory for FTSE and privately held boards
- CEO and chair succession planning and assessment
- Executive team assessment and organization design at the top of the house
- Post-merger integration and culture work for cross-border transactions
- Capability assessment and leadership development for high-growth and transformation programs
- Family enterprise governance, succession, and institutionalization work
Why London is a distinctive advisory market
London is one of the few markets where board governance, institutional-investor discipline, and cross-border corporate leadership meet in the same room — under a governance code that expects clear accountability from chairs, boards, and executive teams. That combination is exactly what the Anker Bioss Framework was built to serve.
