David Elllis joins OMC Partners
Ex-PwC and Cap Gemini veteran joins legal outsourcing and offshoring consultancy
17th June, London: OMC Partners, the specialist legal
outsourcing/offshoring consultancy, today announces the appointment of David
Ellis as a partner in the firm.
David previously at Cap Gemini and an Associate Partner at PwC, has been
working in outsourcing and offshoring for over 10 years. He brings to the
partnership a wide range of experience, having worked across multiple sectors
with major global businesses. David, who has a law degree, is a qualified
accountant (FCMA), and holds an MBA from ESC-EAP, Paris’ leading Grande Ecole.
The hire comes as OMC Partners is expanding in response to an unprecedented
demand for its services from law firms and in-house counsel. The recession has
brought the advantages of outsourcing and offshoring into sharp focus, leading
to a record number of enquiries from major law firms.
Jack Diggle, Partner at OMC Partners, said: “We’re expanding the team in
response to the interest we’re seeing from law firms and in-house counsel in
our services. David brings with him a huge portfolio of experience that will
benefit our clients and help us offer an even more compelling service.
“As well as an increase in the volume of enquiries we’re getting we’re also
seeing a change in the nature of the interest that’s out there. Whereas IT and
support services continue to be prime areas to consider for new sourcing
arrangements, it’s increasingly legal services themselves that are being now
being examined.”
David Ellis, Partner at OMC Partners, said: “OMC Partners are the leading
independent outsourcing and offshoring consultancy for the legal industry. They
have a track record of running successful projects for some of the biggest and
best known names in the industry and it is exciting to be part of that story.
“The legal industry, like every other sector, is facing an unprecedented
economic downturn and so new sourcing models are a key consideration for
clients and law firms alike.”
OMC Partners is working with four of the top fifteen UK law firms and two of
the world’s largest firms. The firm recently rebranded as OMC Partners from
