PA Consulting appoints Chris Fosdick as Head of US

31 October 2024

PA Consulting (PA), the global innovation and transformation consultancy, today announces the appointment of Chris Fosdick as head of its US business.

As Head of US, Chris will lead a team of industry experts across Consumer & Manufacturing, Energy & Utilities, Health & Life Sciences, Financial Services, and Transport.

PA leverages insight and impact to change the face of businesses, economies, and society for the better. The company’s diverse teams of experts combine innovative thinking and breakthrough technologies, partnering with clients to help solve their biggest challenges.

PA’s US team has worked with consumer, retail, and manufacturing companies to build new growth platforms for brands, products, services, and experiences; with energy clients to help them thrive in complex markets and seize the opportunities of the energy transition; and with life science and medical technology clients to deliver end-to-end innovation to meet changing patient and healthcare expectations.

Examples of PA’s US client work includes:

  • Designing, developing, and launching a category-defining fitness platform for Hydrow, creators of the connected rowing machine
  • Helping Invenergy and energyRE win a major offshore wind auction, gaining entry and significant market share in one of the fastest growing sectors in the US
  • Designing a proof-of-concept for Hubly Surgical for an advanced intracranial drill with unique technology that could save thousands of lives each year in the US alone.

After beginning his career in the media sector, Chris has spent the last two decades helping clients respond to changing market dynamics to capitalize on new growth opportunities. Recognizing innovation is crucial to unlocking organizations’ growth, Chris is passionate about bringing together diverse teams of experts to get to the best possible solutions for clients. Chris joined PA in 2022 when it acquired The Cambridge Group, an award-winning growth strategy consulting firm. The Cambridge Group further enhanced PA’s strong growth and innovation strategy capabilities, helping clients to meet demand in a meaningfully differentiated way from their competitors.

I couldn’t be more excited about the future for PA in the US. We’re a highly ambitious team, embarking on the next stage of our growth journey. Our people bring an unmatched blend of technical expertise and creative problem-solving to deliver real impact and value for our clients. I look forward to continuing to foster a culture of collaboration where we work as one team with our clients to address their most pressing challenges and celebrate shared success.”
