FTI Consulting adds three senior members to Health and Human Services practice
FTI Consulting has expanded its Health and Human Services practice with three new senior members: Kerrie Young, James Baulch and Cameron Cuthbert.
Kerrie Young has joined the global consulting firm as a Senior Managing Director and will lead the Data Analytics & AI team within the practice. James Baulch and Cameron Cuthbert have been appointed as Managing Directors. All three arrive at FTI Consulting from Scyne Advisory, having previously served PwC before its private equity-backed carve-out transition.
The hires continue the growth of the Health and Human Services practice, which launched early 2025 and has since grown rapidly to a team of over 35 people. “This latest expansion comes at a critical period for Australia’s healthcare system, which is facing rising demand, workforce constraints and sustained funding pressures,” said Nathan Schlesinger , Head of FTI Consulting’s Health and Human Services practice in Australia.
“Kerrie, James and Cameron bring highly complementary strengths that reinforce our ability to support healthcare, human services and other organisations navigating complex transformation in Australia. Their combined expertise in system modelling, machine learning and digital transformation allows us to help clients move beyond insight to execution.”
Kerrie Young has more than 20 years of experience leading data analytics and artificial intelligence initiatives. She has built and led high-performing data and AI teams, and advised public and private sector organisations on how to harness advanced analytics, cloud-based platforms and intelligent decision support to improve outcomes, efficiency and resilience.
Her expertise includes data strategy, performance improvements including large-scale procurement optimisation, supply chain resilience and workforce analytics.
Prior to joining FTI Consulting, Young was a managing director at Scyne Advisory and led the firm’s Data & AI practice. Previously, she spent two decades at PwC.
