Five professionals join London-based consulting firm Moorhouse

UK headquartered consultancy Moorhouse has welcomed five new professionals to its London team. Andy Hemsley joins the firm as Client Director and Leader of Financial Services Sector at Moorhouse, Nikitha Yereddi and Emily Blampied both arrive as Senior Consultants, Tom Clark has been appointed as an Account Development Manager, while Clarke Dodd begins life at Moorhouse as a Management Consultant.

Established in 2004, Moorhouse is a transformation consultancy which works to deliver complex transformational projects in key areas including strategic design, change management, customer journey improvement, digital and technology transformations, post-merger & acquisition integration, programme management and performance improvement. Recently, the firm’s importance in Britain was underlined when it was listed as one of the top 25 healthcare consultancies in the UK – as the NHS continues to engage the consulting industry in order to eke out potential savings.

This is just one of many avenues where Moorhouse Consulting has growing consistently, and the firm has been ringing in the changes as of late, as the rapidly expanding organisation attempts to make good on its bullish economic performance in recent years. The firm was recently named one of the fastest growing SME consultancies by the London Stock Exchange, while a merger with SQS and Assystem Technologies has opened up new revenue streams and capital resources to the British consultancy. Now as the firm further strives to better meet growing client demand, Moorhouse has on-boarded five new professionals to become part of its London team.

Andy Hemsley has joined Moorhouse as Client Director and Financial Services Sector Leader. The former EY staffer has spent more than 24 years in the consulting and financial services sector, and will bring a wealth of experience to his latest senior role. Most recently this saw Hemsley working as a member of Project One’s Account leadership team, where he had accountability for oversight and assurance of complex change and transformation programmes across multiple clients and sectors as well as business development and maintenance of senior client relationships to c-suite level.

Before this, Hemsley spent nine years with firm EY, where he was latterly a Director in Advisory, leading the Programme Advisory Services team for the Products & Services market at the Big Four firm. Previously, he also had spells working for Chaucer Consulting, Mouchel (now part of WSP), and Hyder Consulting.

Nikitha Yereddi has arrived at Moorhouse as a Senior Consultant, by way of the Helix Centre. Yereddi spent over a year with the group working on chronic disease management and digital behavioural interventions as an Innovation Fellow, having previously spent two years as an Analyst at global IT and advisory firm Accenture.

Emily Blampied similarly takes up the role of Senior Consultant at Moorhouse, having most recently worked in the same capacity for Big Four firm PwC. She joined the firm as a graduate, having picked up a BA Hons in Geography from Oxford, and during her three years at PwC, she rose to the rank of Senior Consultant in PwC’s Technology Consulting practice. During this time, Blampied was PMO Lead in a financial transformation at a retailer with operations across Europe, supporting delivery of a £20 million SAP implementation programme, among other projects.

Tom Clark has been hired as an Account Development Manager at Moorhouse, following a succession of roles in the financial services and consulting sector. Holding a Master of Arts in Theatre Directing from the University of East Anglia, Clark redirected his career in 2013, joining Grant Thornton. Spending over a year with the UK’s fifth largest accounting and advisory firm, he rose to the rank of Business Development Manager before taking a role as Sales Director at iNeed, a consumer app for which he devised and completed in depth market research and oversaw the development of the client journey from concept to MVP. Before joining Moorhouse, Clark spent two years with Inform Direct, a cloud-based company secretarial software platform where he was latterly a Subscriptions Manager.

Clarke Dodd has also been appointed to Moorhouse, arriving at the firm as a Management Consultant. A former summer intern with PwC, in 2015 Dodd returned to the Big Four firm to begin his career as a Management Consultant. He spent the best part of three years with the firm before departing to found and own 1HourAthlete.com, a website covering exercise and nutrition articles with event and product reviews, which he still runs alongside a role as a Strategic Advisor at health and fitness network GoGetters.
