CohnReznick hires Jane Brogan as director in public sector advisory practice

CohnReznick, a New York-headquartered accounting and consulting firm, has hired Jane Brogan as a director in its government and public sector advisory practice.

Based in New York, Brogan brings over 20 years of experience in disaster recovery, resilience, community development, and housing – including 15 years in senior government roles overseeing community development block grant disaster recovery (CDBG-DR) funds.

Brogan has extensive expertise leading program design, strategic grant management, and implementation processes for disaster-related challenges.

She previously spent a year at engineering and construction firm Hill International, where she was a VP in the resilience and disaster recovery practice, and a year at environmental services firm Aptim, where she was disaster recovery program director.

Before that, Brogan was chief policy and research officer within the New York governor’s office of storm recovery, leading development of 17 programs funded with $4.5 billion in federal disaster recovery funds. She also previously was unit head of program and policy for CDBG-DR at the New York City office of management and budget.

Earlier in her career, Brogan was a project manager at Warren & Panzer Engineers.

She has a master’s degree in environmental science from the University of Sydney and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Colgate University.

“This role allows me to continue supporting communities as they navigate complex challenges in resilience, housing, community development, and infrastructure,” Brogan said in a LinkedIn post. “I’m looking forward to collaborating with the extraordinary CohnReznick team, developing solutions that strengthen communities, and continuing to grow in a space that drives meaningful impact.”

CohnReznick has over 5,000 employees and recorded $1.12 billion in FY25 revenue.

London-based private equity firm Apax Partners acquired the accountancy earlier this year.
