Meet The Founder: Shireen Hilal

Great firms aren’t built on borrowed blueprints—they’re made with bold ideas and flawless implementation.
I’ve spent my career working inside top service firms: leading operations, driving strategy, and solving cross-functional challenges. But what excites me most is partnering with boutique and mid-sized firms—where agility, ambition, and the drive to execute make all the difference.
Strategy isn’t the endpoint; it’s where the work begins. Every solution I build is designed to work in practice. That starts with curiosity: about your business, your people, your clients—what makes your firm unique. Because the best strategy is the one your team can execute.
When you work with Maior, you’re bringing on a partner who’s a relentless advocate for your success and isn’t afraid to push your firm to achieve what others might overlook.
I bring the same energy and drive to growing my own business. Building and scaling Maior while helping other firms transform is as fulfilling—and as fun—as it gets. I’m proud to help set new standards for what my clients can achieve, and make it happen.
Chief Executive Officer
Before Maior
I practiced as a litigator for a decade, helping companies solve their largest crises, before moving to strategy and operations.



First I helped a national firm achieve double digit growth while building their processes to sustain further growth.

Next I led strategy and operations for a 5,000-person division of a global firm that was losing business to more nimble competition, helping them reset and move faster.



Then I served as the COO of a national firm that had outgrown its infrastructure and upgraded it across the board, bringing them record revenue and profitability while improving culture.

Before starting Maior, I built the growth team for an early stage firm, creating the sales process, marketing engine, and refining the client experience function to ensure retention.
