Jane Robinson re-joins Avocado Consulting as COO

Avocado Consulting has appointed Jane Robinson as its new Chief Operating Officer.

Jane Robinson has more than 25 years of IT and business experience, with specialties in the financial services and technology sector.

In her new role at Avocado Consulting, Robinson oversees operations with a focus on culture, governance, team development and hiring, and back-office processes. This includes supporting the firm’s 150+ consultant workforce, across New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.

Robinson will also head up the Project Services business line which has been at the core of Avocado Consulting’s success as the firm enters its 20th year in business.

The move sees the freshly installed Chief Operating Officer return to familiar ground. She re-joins the consulting firm after serving as Head of Technology at SaaS start-up Advice Intelligence, which was incubated in Avocado Consulting before being spun off and acquired by global Fintech GBST last year.

“I’m happy to come full circle and be ‘home’ again. Being with Avocado Consulting in the earlier years and returning now as they celebrate their 20th anniversary is great,” said Robinson. “It’s exciting to be back to continue building the Avocado Consulting legacy as a trusted IT partner and contribute to the ongoing growth and success.”

Gerardo Barranquero, the CEO of Avocado Consulting, said: “Jane brings a wealth of capability, and I am looking forward to working once again with someone of her calibre. As we begin our third decade in business and expand new service lines, it instils confidence to know Jane will be supporting our business, our consultants and our clients so we can continue to deliver with certainty.”
