To be able to pass the reigns of the company on to a third generation of Judge is exciting. We have gone from a small three-person-company based out of one office, to a global organization with 35 offices in four countries and thousands of placements. The company is on solid ground, with a very accomplished management team led by Brian Anderson, great staff across the company, and a client base made up of many of the Fortune 100, as well as several promising startups.
