“By integrating market-leading business capabilities and legal operational discipline into the frontlines of service delivery, the services function delivers transformational initiatives to modernise the firm's service delivery platform."

Bakers’ global COO Jason Marty said: "David joining Baker McKenzie last June represented a significant milestone for our firm, and his new appointment to chief services officer reflects the strategic importance of the services function, which underpins our efforts to transform our operating model and how we serve our clients."

Bakers global IP and technology practice chair added: "We recognise that our clients are looking for more than legal advice. They are looking for creative, business-minded, cost-efficient solutions that meet their business needs. David's growing team is enabling us to translate our innovation efforts into tangible improvements in how we deliver our work to clients."

Commenting on his new appointment, Mr Cambria said: "Baker McKenzie is building for the future and investing deeply in its professional and business capabilities. I'm looking forward to leading our services function to new heights as our firm delivers ever greater client value at scale".
