Bluerock launches new financial services sourcing division
 
 Past and present NOA
directors Nigel
Roxburgh, Rory Graham,
and Rob Aylott have
joined Bluerock
Consulting, where they
have re-united to launch
the strategic
Source-to-Service
practice of the UK-based
boutique consultancy
that specialises in the
management of change
within the financial
services sector.
   Each adds more than
20 years of sourcing
experience to Bluerock.
Much of their shared
vision on best practice
was developed together
 
 during their tenure on
the NOA Board. Their
central positioning of
the NOA opensource best
practice framework at
Bluerock bears testament
to this background.
   Outsourcing veteran
Roxburgh is one of the
founding members of the
NOA and currently holds
the position of research
director, heading up
this industry body’s
research initiatives
into outsourcing
business issues as well
as running its thriving
financial services
Special Interest Group.
Roxburgh has recently
 
 held senior positions at
Accenture and Xansa and
is a specialist in
outsourcing in the
banking, investment and
insurance sectors.
   Commercial strategist
Graham recently left the
legal profession –
having held partner
positions at a number of
legal firms including
Bird and Bird, and Baker
McKenzie – to make his
foray into the broader
world of outsourcing
consultancy at Bluerock.
Graham is a past board
member of the NOA and
held the position of
legal director.
 
    Seasoned outsourcing
industry professional
Aylott, was a sourcing
practice leader at both
KPMG and Orbys and
brings a wealth of deal
strategy and offshoring
expertise. He received
an NOA lifetime
achievement award in
recognition of his
industry standing.
   Kevin Webb,
Bluerock’s head of
technology, and former
partner and consulting
director at KPMG
commented: “With so much
experience under their
belts, having Nigel,
Rory and Rob join
 
 Bluerock will get our
new sourcing practice
off to a flying start.”
   Chief executive
Julian Sawyer added:
“Bluerock has aggressive
growth plans over the
next five years and
having a team which is
highly knowledgeable
about financial services
sourcing will be crucial
to achieve our vision.
This represents another
exciting step in our
development.”
