Professional services firm, Deloitte, today announced it has significantly expanded its Enterprise Information Management practice with the appointment of Information Management experts Robert Hillard, Frank Farrall and Kevin Moysey.
Previously with BearingPoint, the three partners join an additional 60 Information Management consultants of varying levels that Deloitte has recruited over the last six months in Australia, bringing Deloitte’s Information Management practice to a total of 140 people.
Gerhard Vorster, Managing Partner of Consulting at Deloitte said, “Our Consulting practice has grown by over 40% in the last 12 months and one of our core growth areas has been in the Information Management and Business Intelligence space. This has been driven by the need for organisations to more effectively leverage their information assets, combined with a need to assist our clients navigate the rapid changes in the vendor landscape.”
“We are therefore absolutely delighted that Robert, Frank and Kevin have joined us, all three being strategic recruits in the development of our business. Their delivery of information strategy advisory and architecture services will complement our existing technology advisory, finance transformation and CFO agenda offerings.”
Robert Hillard said, “Information is central to corporate knowledge and most organisations do not have a formal strategy to tackle this critical resource. Organisations that are unable to quickly and effectively manage the mass of information and gain real insight into their business will fall behind their competitors.”
“I was attracted to Deloitte because it offers clients the full breadth of business advisory services that none of the other consulting firms can at this time. It is well recognised in the industry as a leader in the market, it is a truly innovative organisation and the leaders are passionate about applying their skills to solving real business issues. I’m delighted to be part of the team.”
Robert Hillard will lead the Information Management team within Deloitte’s Consulting practice. He is acknowledged as one of the world’s leading information management experts with close to 20 years experience in the industry. His previous position at BearingPoint was Managing Director of the Information Management division as well as BearingPoint’s “global solution leader” for Information Management.
