Madrid, Spain — EY Abogados announced the hiring of Silvia Bauzá as the new partner overseeing markets and corporate development of the legal department and the labor practice. Bauzá, previously associated with A&O Shearman in Spain, brings extensive experience to her new role under the supervision of EY Abogados’ managing partner, Ramón Palacín.
Palacín expressed enthusiasm about Bauzá’s addition to the team, highlighting her prominent legal background, “Silvia’s joining marks a considerable gain for EY Abogados. Her seasoned expertise and commanding leadership are pivotal as we aim to enhance our client services and further our standing in the marketplace.”
Bauzá arrives at EY with a storied career in labor law, dating back over twenty-five years which includes stints at major national and international firms. Prior to her latest role at A&O Shearman, she served in high-ranking positions at Hogan Lovells and Gómez-Acebo y Pombo, after starting her career at Garrigues.
At EY, Bauzá will lend her expertise primarily to strategic labor and employment law consultations for both domestic and international clientele. Her specializations include labor restructuring projects such as collective dismissals, modifications of working conditions, and collective bargaining agreements.
“I am thrilled to start this new chapter with EY Abogados,” said Bauzá. “I am eager to collaborate with this exceptionally skilled team to deliver innovative and practical solutions that will assist our clients in adeptly managing present and impending labor challenges.”
Her expertise extends into complex litigation involving both individual and group disputes, high-level executive negotiations, and designing incentive schemes. Furthermore, her extensive labor law knowledge is also applied in mergers and acquisitions and corporate restructuring scenarios.
Beyond her professional work, Bauzá contributes academically to the field. She holds a law degree from the Universidad San Pablo CEU, a master’s degree in Legal Practice from the Universidad Pontificia de Comillas ICADE, and another master’s in Occupational Health and Safety from the European Institute of Health. Bauzá is active with the SIMA Foundation as a mediator helping in the extrajudicial settlement of collective conflicts and serves as a co-director of the High Specialization Course in Labor Law Counseling at the Complutense University’s School of Legal Practice.
Bauzá’s appointment is seen not only as a significant individual addition but also as a strategic enhancement of EY Abogados’ capabilities in navigating complex labor laws and enhancing company workforce dynamics in an ever-evolving global business environment.
