“Kate’s promotion to Chief Strategy Officer is a natural
progression and recognition of the leadership she has shown helping
to drive our strategic initiatives over the years,” said the firm’s
managing partner, Simon Malko. “Kate has played a pivotal role in
shaping our firm's strategy, leading key projects that have
significantly enhanced our market position. Few people know our
firm like she does, and her leadership and deep understanding of
our business have been instrumental in our success.”
Pearch, who has been with the firm for nearly two decades, began
her career as a marketing coordinator and gradually took on more
responsibility within marketing and business development. As CMBDO
for the past seven years, she worked closely with firm leadership
to identify, prioritize, and pursue revenue and growth
opportunities. She also served as a strategic business adviser to
practice group leaders regarding key organizational, business
development and management issues. While she will continue to
oversee the firm’s marketing and business development team, Pearch
will devote more of her time to implementing the firm’s strategic
initiatives, including client, lateral, and revenue expansion,
working closely with Malko on those priorities.
Pearch has also played a pivotal role in developing internal
firm initiatives that have shaped MMM’s culture. She founded the
firm’s Women’s Initiative, which has helped attract and retain
women and position them on a path for partnership through
mentorship and professional development. She also co-founded the
firm's Recruiting, Retention & Training Committee, an internal
leadership group that helped develop, promote, and retain talented
associates. Pearch also serves on the firm’s MMMPact Committee,
which directs MMM’s corporate social responsibility outreach.
“What started as a job search for a position at one of Atlanta’s
best places to work has evolved into a fulfilling career at a firm
I’ve been fortunate to call home for nearly 20 years,” said Pearch.
“I’m honored to take on the role of CSO and serve as one of the few
women in this role within the Am Law 200. This position underscores
MMM’s commitment to continuous growth and innovation, and I look
forward to continuing to drive MMM’s positive momentum and
success.”
