Experienced Leader Award
Jon Hooker leads teams of Technology Strategy & Transformation consultants to deliver outstanding results for KPMG’s Infrastructure, Government and Health clients. Working primarily in the Ministry of Defence Jon has delivered complex strategy and transformation engagements that have contributed significantly to Defence’s Digital transformation journey over the past four years.
He draws upon extensive technical leadership experience from 16 years as a British Army officer in the Royal Corps of Signals, where he led squadrons of technical soldiers to provide communication and information systems to the Army, completed tours of Afghanistan and overseas exercises, and held training and command positions back in the UK.
Jon also built up considerable technical knowledge, working in technical staff posts for Defence’s Chief Technology Officer and in Defence’s Digital Operations HQ.
This has led to a highly successful second career as a Technology Strategy and Transformation consultant at KPMG. Jon has combined his detailed knowledge of the MOD with his understanding of digital and information technologies in the Defence environment, and overlaid consultancy skills and capabilities to achieve outstanding results.
Jon’s clients note his total customer focus, and commitment to exceed expectations, on recent work leading teams to define, articulate and write several iterations of MOD’s Digital Strategy, as well as to define the operating model for MOD’s newest Digital and AI delivery capabilities. His leadership has led to his teams’ work becoming the template for other underlying MOD strategy work and he also volunteers time helping other military professionals transition to second careers.
