Selma Attride

Selma Attride is an accomplished HR leader with more than 25 years of experience guiding human resources strategy and operations. As Head of HR at Global Strategy Group, she partners across teams to shape a culture that’s inclusive, high-performing, and deeply connected. Selma is passionate about building trusted relationships with employees and leaders alike and ensuring that GSG’s people practices reflect both the firm’s values and its commitment to wellbeing.

Before joining GSG, Selma built her career in the pharmaceutical advertising and medical communications industries, leading HR for teams of scientific, creative, client service, and digital professionals. Her work in those fast-paced, interdisciplinary environments strengthened her ability to balance strategy with empathy — a hallmark of her leadership approach.

A graduate of Dartmouth College, Selma also held positions in various companies in London and Dublin early in her career before returning to the U.S. She now calls New Jersey home and enjoys the balance of small-town life with frequent trips into New York City — whether for a walk through her old Brooklyn neighborhood, a great dinner, or to enjoy some live music.
