Helen Parker Partner - Management Consulting

Helen is the UK lead for Forvis Mazars Strategy & transformation services. As a strategy and transformation expert, Helen supports organisations to improve their long-term performance and to achieve their strategic goals and ambitions

Experience

Helen joined the firm in 2006, initially sitting within external audit, where she trained as a Chartered Accountant. She has spent the last 10 years in consulting, with a focus on advising clients on improving long-term performance and growing the value of their business. This covers a range of areas including strategic and cultural transformation, business planning and performance management, pre- and post-merger integration and IPO planning and execution. 

These are typically large-scale, transformation projects where effective project and change management methods are critical. As business leaders drive transformation, they must also evolve their culture to support new ways of working. Helen advises her clients on how to unlock competitive advantage through people-led change.
