Leadership and governance

Deloitte EMEA comprises 16 Participating Firms operating across the region. Our governance structure balances effective regional leadership with the strength and autonomy of our local partnerships.

EMEA Executive

The EMEA Executive includes the EMEA CEO, the CEOs of 12 Participating Firms, and the managing partners of our business, growth and enabling areas. This structure enables us to execute a shared regional strategy while supporting local market success through combined regional and local decision-making.

Our leadership approach is built on alignment, collaboration and inclusiveness. In doing so, we maintain our vibrant local partnerships, enhance trust across the region and operate with the agility needed to respond effectively to market dynamics. Importantly, all EMEA Executive members remain partners in their local firms, ensuring deep connections to local markets and operations.

EMEA Board

The EMEA Board is the primary regional governance body of Deloitte in EMEA with the responsibility for oversight of the strategic direction of the region and ensuring alignment across Participating Firms.

The Board oversees the execution of the regional strategy and monitors financial performance, regulatory and risk considerations that are either cross border or material, leadership development and succession for EMEA roles, and other key governance matters. The EMEA Board comprises the Chair, Deputy Chair and CEO plus 18 Board members and one Deloitte Global observer.
