Alvarez & Marshall expands in Chicago
Alvarez & Marsal, a leading independent global professional services firm specializing in performance improvement, turnaround management and business advisory services, has expanded its presence in Chicago, IL with the addition of former PricewaterhouseCoopers partner Thomas Watson as a managing director.
With more than 23 years of hands-on consulting experience, Mr. Watson has worked extensively with companies across multiple industry lines and around the world to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of their corporate finance functions through improvements to people, processes and technology.
“All companies need to manage growth and costs in any economic cycle. This means their finance organizations need to deliver transparent, efficient and forward-looking insight. At the same time, finance executives must effectively manage risk and compliance, leverage capital and maximize liquidity,” said Tom Elsenbrook, head of A&M Business Consulting. “Tom Watson brings a wealth of global experience and executive-level finance expertise, and is an outstanding addition to our team.”
Prior to joining A&M, Mr. Watson spent 15 years with PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP in Chicago, where he served as a lead partner in the Finance Effectiveness Practice. He earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting from Illinois State University and is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) licensed in the state of Illinois.
