PwC partner Olivier Maltese joins Alvarez & Marsal
Olivier Maltese has joined Alvarez & Marsal in its London office. The Managing Director will work with clients facing transformational challenges.
Speaking on his new role, Maltese said, “The ability of Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) to support businesses with the carve-out of complex operations, particularly within the industrials space, provides companies with a critical advantage for turning challenges into opportunities. I look forward to helping our clients maximize value and achieve their business objectives.”
Most recently a Partner with PwC, Maltese served within the Big Four firm’s deal value practice, co-leading the industrials platform.
His industrial experience includes the carve-out of a producer of a high-performance steels business and the merger integration of two global players in railway transportation. He also brings knowledge of the life sciences sector, having worked on a major pharma merger and the finance transformation of one of the largest UK-based healthcare companies.
Maltese will serve as a Managing Director in A&M’s offices in London and Paris. His appointment coincides with another Managing Director hire in that latter office, with Olivier Duval joining from Ascometal – where he was Chief Operating Officer and Chief Restructuring Officer, and led a major transformation of the supply chain function.
Over the past two years, A&M has grown rapidly in France, with a 200% headcount increase at the Paris office. These appointments are aimed at helping the firm strengthen its ability to advise industrials clients on a global level by defining and driving their transformational agenda.
Guillaume Martinez, Managing Director and Head of Corporate Transformation Services in France, commented, “This growth is testament to A&M’s collaborative approach across our business lines to provide clients with tangible results to maximise value. We believe the addition of Olivier Duval and Olivier Maltese, along with their combined industrial sectors experience, will strongly benefit A&M’s clients.”
