Irish Executive Committee

The day-to-day management of Mazars in Ireland is delegated to the executive. The Executive has the responsibility for setting Mazars’ national strategy, within the overarching framework of the international strategy.

The Irish partnership is managed by the managing partner and other executive members. Both the managing partner and The Executive are elected by the partners in the firm. The managing partner candidacy is submitted for consideration by the nomination committee and the GEB. The managing partner is elected by the partners for a term of 4 years and he nominates the other executive candidates who are subject to ratification by the partners (members of the current executive are pictured below).

A partnership agreement sets out the management and governance structure within Mazars and its requirements regarding The Executive, Risk Committee, and Audit Committee are set out here.
