Marc Luber

Managing Director

Dubbed “the nicest guy in the world” by a former employer, Marc has been helping lawyers identify and pursue career opportunities that fit their goals, interests and experience since 2003. People find his recruiting approach to be personalized, consultative, thorough and friendly.

Prior to joining Onward, Marc worked for another top search firm. He returned to recruiting in 2022 after a decade running JD Careers Out There (JDCOT), the career coaching and video-based platform he founded to help lawyers explore the wide variety of ways they could use their law degrees.

Marc is a graduate of the University of Michigan (B.A., English) and the Chicago-Kent College of Law. He’s a member of the Illinois Bar and is a Certified Executive Coach. After a first career in the music industry managing bands and working for the Rolling Stones, A&M Records, Rondor Music Publishing and LicenseMusic.com, Marc made a career change in 2003 to become a legal recruiter. When not at his desk, Marc is most likely to be found exercising outdoors or at a live music event. He lives in Los Angeles and also spends a lot of time in his hometown of Chicago.
