Sydney, Australia - January 2025 - Fusion5 has appointed former McKinsey & Company Associate Partner Jaime Enríquez as Group Head of Strategy and Transformation, as Australian and New Zealand organisations face growing pressure to move beyond AI experimentation and deliver measurable business outcomes.
The newly created role reflects Fusion5’s focus on helping customers bridge the widening gap between AI ambition and operational reality, particularly as boards and executive teams grapple with how to scale transformation while managing cost, risk, and capability constraints.
Enríquez brings more than a decade of global consulting experience, having spent 11 years at McKinsey & Company advising CEOs and boards across more than 20 countries on technology strategy, managed services growth, and large-scale transformation programs. Most recently based in Stockholm, his work has spanned Europe and ANZ, with a track record of driving sustainable growth, margin improvement, and capital efficiency.
“Organisations are no longer asking whether AI matters — they’re asking how to operationalise it safely, responsibly, and at scale,” said Deepak Nangia, Group CEO of Fusion5 Australia and New Zealand. “Jaime’s experience turning complex strategy into executable transformation will help us accelerate outcomes for our customers at a time when execution matters more than vision alone.”
Fusion5 is an independent ANZ transformation partner, combining managed services, cloud, security, and AI capabilities to support increasingly autonomous enterprise outcomes — where technology augments human decision-making rather than simply automating tasks.
Enríquez said the move reflects a broader shift he is seeing across the market.
True digital transformation is no longer just about cloud migration; it is about deploying Agentic AI to take ownership of business results, with humans in the loop. We are moving beyond the traditional managed services model to one where we don’t just support IT, but use autonomous agents to deliver specific enterprise outcomes. This allows us to insource our clients’ technology capability cost-effectively, while we guarantee the performance.”
Enríquez officially joined Fusion5 in mid-November and is based in Sydney.
