Andersen’s managing partner in Spain José Vicente Morote has been appointed new member of Andersen’s Global Board

After being unanimously elected by the European Regional Board as the firm’s representative in Europe, José Vicente Morote (pictured) joins Andersen´s Global Management Committee.

The Global Management Committee is the highest governing body of Andersen Global as it sets the strategic lines of development and management of the Legal and Tax services firm. It is chaired by the firm’s chairman and CEO, Mark Vorsatz, and is composed of 11 members from the different regions of the world, who bring different perspectives to the firm’s organisation and expansion process.

Alongside chairman Vorsatz and European representative José Vicente Morote (pictured), the Global Board is completed by Bill Amon (U.S. – Los Angeles), Ilan Ben Eli (Israel), Joseph Karczewski (U.S. – Chicago), Ellen MacNeil (U.S. – Washington, D.C.), Dorice Pepin (U.S. – Chicago), Joseph Toce (U.S. – New York), Stefan Kraus (Germany), Jelil Bouraoui (Tunisia), Lena Hamdi (Egypt) and Juan Federico Fischer (Uruguay).

José Vicente Morote, who took over the management of Andersen in Spain alongside Íñigo Rodríguez-Sastre in January 2021, is also the firm’s European Legal Coordinator since 2018 and a member of the European Board.

For the managing partner of Andersen in Spain, this new international responsibility “is a very exciting new challenge that allows me to actively participate in the global development of the firm, both in the expansion and integration of new members and in the coordination of all the countries and institutionalisation of the firm.” He stressed that the appointment is a “recognition of the work and efforts of the European firms and Spain in particular, which are a benchmark in the organisation and will continue to contribute knowledge to the international organisation, which is constantly expanding.”
