Rick McCartney

Deloitte has named Ken Udenze as managing partner of its Arizona practice, effective June 1, 2020. He succeeds Jonas McCormick, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP, who will be transitioning to a new leadership role at Deloitte.

Udenze is a partner with Deloitte & Touche LLP. He brings 28 years of experience, specializing in public- and private-company reporting matters and M&A transactions. He will continue to serve clients across various industries.

While still maintaining his client service responsibilities, Udenze will oversee strategy, operations and talent for the Arizona practice. Additionally, he will work to strategically position Deloitte for continued growth and expansion in the Arizona market.

“I am honored to have been selected to serve as Arizona managing partner and look forward to expanding my experience in my new role at Deloitte,” Udenze said. “I am thankful for Jonas’ leadership, which has led to unprecedented growth in our practice over the last decade. His efforts and contributions have made a lasting impact on our clients, our people and our community.”

“Ken’s significant experience and impressive record at Deloitte will serve him well in his new role as managing partner,” said McCormick. “I look forward to seeing his contributions and firmly believe he will continue to help grow Deloitte’s presence in Arizona while making an impact for our clients and beyond.”

Deloitte’s Arizona practice has over 500 professionals serving clients across a multitude of industries in the greater Phoenix area, with a newly opened delivery center of over 2,000 employees in Gilbert.
