Excellence in Strategy Consulting
Age: 33
Currently a Principal at L.E.K. Consulting, Rob Wilson joined the firm in 2010 and has more than 11 years in strategy & operations consulting. Wilson is a leader in the Retail and Consumer Products Practice and has led dozens of strategic consulting projects worldwide for food and beverage clients.
Recent examples include a growth strategy for the fastest growing packaged foods brand in the United States and multi-year strategic planning for a leading commercial baker that has outperformed its competitors over the last three years.
Wilson led cases that garnered L.E.K.'s Intellectual Capital Award for three years running. This award is given annually to one project across the hundreds of L.E.K. projects worldwide for excellence in creating client value.
"I am passionate to drive results for my clients and proud when they achieve success," Wilson says. "Receiving this distinction and being promoted to Principal within weeks of each other in 2015 were my proudest moments professionally over my 11-year consulting career and an acknowledgment of the success I've helped my clients achieve."
Wilson says L.E.K. is in one of the most exciting positions in the profession with consistently strong growth and a bright future ahead. "In particular, our retail and consumer products practice continues to expand and we've been recognized two years in a row for having a Rising Star of the Profession." (L.E.K.'s Maria Steingoltz in 2014.)
As far as being named a Rising Star of the Profession for 2015, Wilson says: "It was an honor the firm recommended me and the congratulatory e-mails I received from my colleagues meant a lot, even the ones from those who were surprised I was under 35!"
