Ed O'Connell

CEO - UK

What’s your role with ECMS?

As the UK CEO of Eames Group, I’m responsible for the ECMS and Eames Consulting businesses in the UK. I’m a highly experienced staffing and managed services leader with over 20 years’ experience in the talent industry. With exposure to S&P 500 and private equity environments, I pride myself on my ability to build and scale businesses with a focus on excellence.

What’s the future of consulting?

The traditional ways of delivering projects have long been needing change. ECMS addresses this need by striking the right balance between subject matter experts and powerful advisers, working with organisations to generate great opportunities.

Our group is organised to build fantastic outcomes through our four highly specialised pillars of technology and digital enablement, change and transformation, corporate functions and specialist disciplines.

It’s the symbiotic building of the right groups and projects in line with project demands, at the right cost.

Why ECMS?

We recognise the need for human-led relationships that deliver cost-effective outcomes, delivered by world class experts. Unlike the traditional consultancy model which dictates the nature of the solution, we have an agile approach utilising world class global expertise to shape the right solution to meet client budgets – and it’s all done in partnership. We don’t tell clients what to do; we work with them to deliver the right outcome for their business.
