Former MOL Chief Compliance Counsel Marton Kocsis has left the company to rejoin Cerha Hempel as Head of Competition and Compliance.

Kocsis worked at Cerha Hempel from 2015 to 2019 before leaving last year to join MOL. He also worked from 2007-2015 as a Competition lawyer with the Hungarian Competition Authority.

“I’m very happy and excited to join my old colleagues in a new role, as leader of the Competition practice group, "said Kocsis. "I will work with my colleague, [Cerha Hempel Co-Managing Partner] Tamas Polauf, to serve our existing clients with the flexible and high-end legal services that they have grown accustomed to, and to attract new clients with state-of-the-art innovative legal and compliance solutions that help them achieve the highest possible level of compliance."

“As we continue to build our practice that we started in 2015, we couldn’t have asked for a person who is better suited to head our joint effort than Marton," added Polauf. "Competition law engagements have started to play an increasingly important role in our daily operations, and our clients are looking for new, innovative compliance solutions in today’s ever-changing and complex legal environment, and therefore our organically growing competition practice needed a new, well experienced leader. I’m confident that the complex multi-national knowledge Marton has acquired in a corporate setting during the last period of his career will further strengthen our office and practice.”
