NEW YORK (July 19, 2016) — Allegis Partners (AP), a global executive search firm, announced today that it has been retained by GLG (Gerson Lehrman Group) to recruit the company's next global head of human resources. GLG is the world’s largest and leading professional learning platform, with 22 offices in 12 countries and more than 425,000 thought leaders and practitioners serving more than 1,400 client companies in 40 countries.

New York City-based GLG has been a pioneer in professional learning for more than 15 years.
