 Les Moeller |
Les Moeller, most recently global leader of PwC's Strategy& unit, has joined FTI Consulting as chairman of North and South America.
In announcing Moeller’s recruitment, CEO Steve Gunby noted that FTI wants to “build a business that as a whole is more than the sum of its individual parts.”
Moeller will focus on client development and leverage FTI’s cross-company expertise in the Americas, as it has done in Europe.
“We see Les’ appointment as the opportunity to extend those learnings and results to our largest business — the U.S,” said Gunby in a statement. “Les is a savvy and results-focused leader with a track record of delivering consistent financial growth through economic cycles and a commitment to client service.”
Moeller, who has more than 25 years of consulting expertise, was managing director of North America at Booz & Co. at its acquisition by PwC.
