Leading global professional services firm Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) has added business leader and senior executive Jeffrey Bartel to support client service development in the Southeast region and firm-wide.  Mr. Bartel joins as a Senior Adviser based in Miami and will serve in a firm-wide advisory role for business needs in South Florida, Atlanta and Washington D.C.

“With his extensive business operations and leadership background, deep experience with federal, state and local government, and broad range of industry-specific expertise, Jeff brings a compelling and valuable set of skills to the firm as we continue to expand in the Southeast,” said Ernesto Perez, a managing director with Alvarez & Marsal and interim chief executive officer of the firm’s Tax practice. “The unique depth and breadth of his background will help our clients address the critical issues, trends and challenges they’re facing in today’s evolving business world.”

With more than 25 years of experience in government, law, corporate and entrepreneurial initiatives, Bartel brings expertise in management and executive leadership, public-private partnerships, regulatory and government affairs, and operations – alongside his extensive knowledge of legal, compliance and corporate responsibility, corporate governance, real estate and capital markets issues. He advises clients on transforming operations, improving business performance and creating value across industry sectors including: financial services, energy and utilities, private equity, real estate, retail companies and public sector organizations.

Bartel also currently serves as chairman and managing director of Hamptons Group, a private investment firm focused on capital markets with diversified public and private assets and venture-oriented investments in areas such as real estate, financial services, infrastructure, energy, retail, franchising and entertainment businesses. “This is an exciting opportunity to serve in an advisory role for Alvarez & Marsal and to focus on optimizing client opportunities and outcomes,” said Bartel.
