Hunter Stone is an independent executive search and talent advisory firm. We operate across Europe, North America, and South America, connecting exceptional professionals with organizations that deserve them.
Hunter Stone was built on a different premise: that the right introduction, made with care, judgment, and full accountability, changes the trajectory of organizations and careers alike.
Julian Stone trained as an architect in Barcelona before a career that moved, by design, through construction, large-scale development, and the private client world.
He has directed projects across Europe, the Caribbean, and the Americas, and founded Gallostone & Partners, a private advisory firm serving family offices and private clients across international jurisdictions.
Through contacts developed during this time, he gained a first-hand understanding of what separates exceptional leadership from the rest.
In 2017 he co-founded Hunter Stone with his partner Charles Hunter. He divides his time between London and Madrid.
Charles Hunter was educated at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford. He assumed responsibility for the family office while still in his twenties.
From 1991 to 1997 he lived and worked in Moscow, where he managed family business interests in real estate and industrial assets. He left Moscow for London in 1997 and has been based in Zurich since.
Working closely with Goldman Sachs, Lazard, Morgan Stanley, and Rothschild across private banking, real estate, and infrastructure on both sides of the Atlantic, the network formed across forty years in private capital forms the foundation of Hunter Stone's reach.
In 2017 he co-founded Hunter Stone with his partner Julian Stone.
