Mourant, an international professional services firm with law at its core, is further strengthening its leadership team with the appointment of Tom Grogan as Chief Transformation Officer.
Tom joins Mourant from Mishcon de Reya, where he was labelled the ‘Tech Guru’ by leading legal publication The Lawyer. At Mishcon, he played a pivotal role in business transformation, digital strategy and innovation as Head of Emerging Technology, alongside leading its consultancy arm as divisional Chief Executive Officer. With extensive expertise in operational strategy, process optimisation and AI-driven innovation, Tom has led high-impact transformation initiatives across legal, financial and retail sectors.
Tom was one of just 19 advisors globally identified by Lexology Index as a Global Elite Thought Leader for FinTech and Blockchain in 2024. As Chief Transformation Officer, Tom will work closely with Mourant’s leadership team to accelerate the business’s digital innovation, enhancing operational effectiveness, and driving strategic change.
Tom has worked extensively on leveraging technology to advance environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives, helping businesses integrate sustainability into their operational strategies. His appointment reflects Mourant’s commitment to harnessing technology for sustainable growth.
Jonathan Rigby, CEO at Mourant, said: “It’s a pleasure to welcome Tom to Mourant. Tom’s appointment emphasises our reputation as an employer of choice and highlights the strength of our vision. His expertise in transformation and digital innovation, as well as his passion for sustainability and ESG-driven solutions, will be instrumental as we continue to evolve our firm and position ourselves for long-term success.”

We are looking to carve out a uniquely valuable proposition for our clients around the world. I look forward to embracing this exciting opportunity to drive meaningful transformation and innovation.”
This latest appointment follows a series of high-profile hires at Mourant, including former Kirkland & Ellis Partner Brad Hillson, who joined as Global Head of Private Capital in May 2025.
