EY-Parthenon’s Strategy practice supports clients to develop and deliver strategic opportunities by providing in-depth market, competitor and customer insight. 

James Nicholson, EY-Parthenon Strategy leader, said: “I’m excited to be building on Matt’s great work to lead the team through its next phase of development. EY-Parthenon’s strength lies in its ability to tap into diverse sector teams to deliver expertise across strategy, transactions and implementation.  

“The appointments of Nick and Lluis to our existing team will help us support clients to navigate the challenges ahead and build long-term sustainable growth.”

Nick joins EY from a leading multinational online retailer, where he helped to build and grow several nascent business units. Prior to that, Nick was at Accenture Strategy, where he advised cross-sector clients on commercial excellence and digital strategy.
