Falcon Brook Search is thrilled to announce the opening of its New York office, another major milestone in our global growth journey and a powerful step forward in serving the North American energy and commodities markets.
Following the success of our Houston launch, this expansion cements Falcon Brook’s position as a trusted global partner to leading trading houses, investment firms, and energy companies across London, Dubai, Singapore, and now New York.
At the heart of this exciting new chapter is Ben Max, who joins Falcon Brook as Managing Director, Energy & Commodities, U.S.. Based in New York, Ben brings over 20 years of executive search expertise, having built a reputation for delivering exceptional front-office talent across energy, commodities, and financial markets.
Ben’s appointment marks a pivotal moment for Falcon Brook. His deep market insight, extensive network, and proven ability to build and inspire high-performing teams will drive our continued expansion across the Americas. Under Ben’s leadership, our U.S. practice will strengthen Falcon Brook’s on-the-ground presence, delivering senior talent solutions across portfolio management, trading, origination, analytics, risk, operations, and executive leadership.
“Our New York launch is about more than opening an office, it’s about investing in people, partnerships, and purpose,” said Ben Max. “The energy and commodities landscape is evolving rapidly, and Falcon Brook is perfectly positioned to help clients navigate that change by connecting them with top-tier talent that will define the next decade.”
As the global energy transition accelerates, Falcon Brook remains committed to helping clients manage market complexity and build world-class teams capable of driving growth and innovation. The opening of our New York office reinforces that commitment, bringing us closer to our clients and candidates shaping the future of energy and commodities.
