AlixPartners adds Eric Nelsen as managing director in Houston
AlixParners has hired Eric Nelsen, a seasoned management consultant, as a managing director in its Houston office.
Nelsen brings more than 30 years of consulting experience, with expertise driving revenue and growth in the oil & gas and other industries.
Nelsen has led engagements across growth planning, new offering development, post-merger strategy and integration, operations design and implementation, and change management, among other areas. He has completed client projects throughout the Americas, Europe, and Asia.
He joins AlixPartners from Oliver Wyman/Mercer Management Consulting, where he spent the last 29 years (the two firms were merged together by parent company Marsh in 2007). Nelsen most recently served as a Chicago-based partner in Oliver Wyman’s oil & gas practice, where he focused on client engagements in strategy and operations.
He holds an MBA from Stanford University and a bachelor’s degree from Dartmouth College.
“Eric’s deep experience in the energy industry, and in revenue enhancement in many industries, will be of great value to companies grappling with today’s unprecedented levels of disruption,” said Simon Freakley, CEO of AlixPartners. “We are delighted to welcome Eric to AlixPartners.”
Aside from a core capability in turnaround and restructuring consulting, New York-based AlixPartners offers services in performance improvement, mergers and acquisitions, economics, investigations and disputes, technology and digital, and leadership. The firm has more than 2,000 people across more than 20 offices globally.
The consulting firm earlier this year hired cybersecurity expert Beth Musumeci as a managing director.
