Linzi Barr has joined Valcon in the UK. She arrives as a chief operating officer for the firm’s national wing, overseeing its operations across Britain.
European consultancy Valcon specialises in digital and business transformation, hosting 1,650 consultants across its operations. It partners with enterprises of all sizes, serving them over four key competences: data, AI, technology and consulting.
Linzi Barr arrives as COO for its UK branch, strengthening its leadership team in the country, as the firm continues its expansion throughout Britain. Her appointment comes at a time of increasing demand from organisations seeking practical, value driven support to navigate AI adoption, digital transformation and operating model evolution.
Barr noted, “Valcon has built a strong reputation for combining strategic thinking with hands-on delivery. I’m excited to be joining the senior leadership team at such a pivotal point – when we have announced our new vision to become a European powerhouse in AI and data driven transformation – to help drive the next phase of growth, while working with the team to focus on delivering real impact for our clients.”
Barr was previously a member of BJSS’ senior leadership, overseeing operational excellence and driving growth across complex client environments. She arrives at Valcon from CGI, following the technology consulting giant’s acquisition of BJSS.
At Valcon, Barr will be responsible for overseeing UK operations, process improvement, and scaling delivery capability.
Laura Casci, UK managing partner with Valcon, added, “Linzi is a fantastic addition to Valcon’s UK executive team. She brings deep operational expertise, strong leadership credentials and a pragmatic mindset that aligns perfectly with Valcon’s culture and ambition in the UK. Her experience will be instrumental as we continue to scale, while staying focused on delivering measurable outcomes for our clients.”
