Chicago, USA - 28th April 2026

Efficio, the world’s largest specialist procurement and supply chain consultancy, has appointed Jonathan Rutman to lead its Business Development for North America, strengthening its growth across the region. 

Jonathan joins Efficio with over 20 years of experience partnering with senior executives to leverage both procurement and supply chain to support their most critical priorities. Previously he has held senior roles within Big Four consulting and advisory firms.   

In his new role, Jonathan will focus on accelerating Efficio’s growing presence in North America, working closely with large multinational corporations and private equity firms seeking to create enterprise value through procurement and supply chain. 

Commenting on the appointment, Patrick Traynor, Efficio Vice President and North American lead, said: “Jonathan’s appointment reflects our continued investment in North America and our commitment to supporting clients as they face increasingly complex procurement and supply chain challenges. His functional experience, combined with his ability to design and deliver initiatives aligned to clients’ strategic priorities, will enable our clients to realize and sustain measurable results.” 

We are seeing a lot of organizations who have invested heavily in strategy yet have not realized the expected returns. Efficio’s approach of partnering and embedding alongside client teams enables the execution of strategy while also building internal capability. The use of AI and related technologies developed to accelerate our own work on behalf of our clients, has generated huge efficiencies and scale, and we are excited to be bringing these proven, real-world AI-use cases and tools to our clients.
