OC&C’s B2B team provide a depth of expertise and sector insight to clients across Automotive, Built Environment & Recycling, Industrial Products, Insurance, Marine, Professional Services & Outsourcing and TICC.
As Partner, Fred will continue to build on his commercial success, supporting clients across two key strands: Professional Services and TICC.
Since joining OC&C as an Associate Consultant 10 years ago in 2014, Fred has delivered exceptional results over a wide range of client work. As his career developed, he continued to display mastery of a wide variety of topics. He is now focusing his platform on Professional Services and on the deployment of VCP within B2B clients as core strands.
Fred brings to his new role a deep understanding of the B2B sector and a strength of conceptual problem solving.

Commenting on his appointment, Fred said:
“I am very grateful to OC&C for being such as nurturing place, and I am honoured to become Partner, helping my clients, working through their biggest challenges with rigour and honesty, and always staying a step ahead.
“I particularly relish the opportunity to grow OC&C’s work in the professional service firms and investors space, as the industry has been on a very interesting journey from a PE perspective over the last 10 years. We should expect to see continued disruption from GenAI and ESG mega-trends alongside Phenna-style roll ups in TICC.”
