About Us

Transformative Strategy and Transactions, Built for the Real World

EY-Parthenon is one of the world's largest strategy and transactions consulting organizations, with 25,000+ professionals operating across 120+ countries. Founded in 1991 as The Parthenon Group by former Bain & Company directors William Achtmeyer and John Rutherford, and merged with Ernst & Young in 2014, we have grown from a boutique strategy firm to a global powerhouse that sits at the intersection of corporate strategy, transactions, and transformation. We design, develop and deliver end-to-end solutions that work in practice — not just on paper. With deep functional and sector expertise, paired with innovative AI-powered technology and an investor mindset, we partner with CEOs, boards, private equity and governments at every step of their transformation journey — helping them to shape the future with confidence. Our connected solutions combine integrated strategy, transactions and transformation capabilities, further enhanced by the full spectrum of EY services across assurance, consulting and tax. Whether navigating geopolitical uncertainty, digital disruption, or complex M&A, we bring outside-in insights, data analytics, and rapid execution to your toughest strategic challenges.
