Rochelle Park-based ZRG on Wednesday said Susan Gallagher has been named as president of Consulting Solutions. Gallagher will lead the continued expansion and integration of ZRG’s global consulting platform, further enhancing the firm’s ability to help clients align leadership, culture, and strategy for long-term success.
With more than 25 years of experience building and leading high-performing consulting organizations, Gallagher was one of the founding partners at Huron Consulting Group, where she helped grow the business through its IPO and into a public company. Most recently, she served as CEO and part owner of Bravanti, a private equity backed firm, which Susan led the sale of to ZRG Partners in 2024. Gallagher’s leadership spans large-scale enterprises, mid-market ventures, and entrepreneurial spinout – all with a focus on delivering exceptional client outcomes.
“Susie is exactly the kind of leader we look for at ZRG: forward-thinking, results-driven, and ready to break from convention,” Larry Hartmann, CEO of ZRG said. “As demand for modern advisory solutions continues to rise, Susie’s experience and vision will be instrumental in scaling our consulting platform and delivering even greater value to our clients.”
“I’ve spent my career building businesses by staying close to the people who matter – our clients and our teams,” Gallagher said. “ZRG isn’t here to replicate the old consulting playbook. We’re building something bolder: a more connected, agile, and human advisory model that’s built for today’s pace of business. That’s what drew me here – and what I’m excited to lead.”
This appointment reflects ZRG’s ongoing momentum and commitment to delivering modern, data-enabled advisory solutions. Through the firm’s proprietary Zi platform and client-first delivery model, ZRG helps organizations find, grow, and align talent with the speed and intelligence today’s business landscape demands.
