PwC has announced the appointment of two new partners, Julian Hunt and India Hardy, as part of its continued strategic investment in digital transformation of health and social care.
Julian Hunt joins from IBM Consulting where he was the managing client partner for the NHS, delivering significant growth supporting major digital programmes, including the NHS App and Digital Transformation of Screening.
After more than four years as health services leader, David Morris will hand over the role to Julian, and will take on an exciting new role within PwC, which will be announced in the coming weeks. Julian will also lead digital health across all service lines.
Julian says: “I’m excited by the opportunity to use the full breadth of PwC’s multi-disciplinary capabilities, including valued alliance partners, to help deliver a technology revolution in health and care, driving improvements in experience, cost and clinical outcomes.”
India brings a unique combination of consulting and clinical service delivery experience, with close to 10 years experience in the NHS. She has led on numerous iconic health programmes, transforming delivery care and making it more accessible for all. She is PwC’s Global Health Industries Community of Solvers co-lead for virtual health, helping organisations activate digitally enabled healthcare. India will lead on health alliance partnerships for the UK Firm.
India says: “It is great to be back in the UK serving a system that I know and love. The changing demographics, rise of the use of digital and the inherent need to evolve our delivery models represent a complex but exciting challenge. I look forward to tackling some of our clients' most complicated problems with the esteemed PwC UK team and ecosystem of partners.”
Rachel Taylor, government & health industries leader at PwC, says: “I am delighted to welcome India and Jules to our growing healthcare team.
