London Team

Emma Weir is the Chairman and Founder of Eban. She started her career in executive search in 1985, covering UK equity broking and all aspects of fund management. After establishing offices in New York, Hong Kong and Tokyo, Emma believed it was an appropriate time to build her own search firm. In 1995 she established the first Eban office in Hong Kong. The rapid success of this office prompted Emma to return to London in 1997 to set up and manage the second office in Eban’s global presence. Emma now spends the majority of her time in London and personally conducts senior level assignments within Global Emerging Markets asset management.

Zanni Young has worked with Emma Weir since 1993, initially as Head of Research for the pan-Asian markets and was an original member of the Eban team in Hong Kong. Zanni relocated back to London in 1997 with Emma to assist in building Eban's European business. She then spent two years recruiting in the communications industry, assisting in the set-up of a New York office, before rejoining Eban in 2001 as Head of Research in London.
