MENLO PARK, CA – Sept. 11, 2018 – Ron Lefferts has joined consulting firm Protiviti as a managing director and global leader of its Technology Consulting practice.

Lefferts comes to Protiviti from IBM Global Business Services, where he held several leadership roles during his 11-year tenure at IBM, including managing partner for the financial services sector in North America and managing partner for the financial services sector in the company’s Greater China Group, and was a member of IBM’s Industry Academy. In these roles, Lefferts built a strong record for strategy, operations and management by leading strategic client relationships and running major client transformation initiatives for some of the world’s largest financial services institutions.

Prior to this, Lefferts served as director of Technology Strategy and Architecture for Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management. Previously in his career, Lefferts was a strategy, operations and technology consultant for a Big Four accounting firm.

His experience helping some of the world’s largest companies in their transformation initiatives through technology adoption and vendor relationships is remarkably well-suited to our clients across all industries and to our team.”
