MorganFranklin Consulting, a leading management and technology consulting firm and a subsidiary of Vaco Holdings, announced today that it has promoted Jeffrey Henry to the role of President of MorganFranklin Consulting. Chris Mann, the former President, will remain with the enterprise and take on a new role as a Senior Advisory Partner.
In his new role, Henry will be responsible for driving accelerated growth, ensuring client satisfaction, developing talent, and maintaining the firm’s competitive edge in the market. Meanwhile, Mann will focus on further developing client relationships, as well as supporting key people-related initiatives and solutions.
“For the last several years, we’ve identified Jeff as someone who is highly in tune with our clients, possesses a strong ability to build scalable teams, and can develop solutions to support their most complex needs,” says Mann. “We feel like now is the right time to make the transition. Jeff’s promotion reflects the exceptional value he has brought to our teams, enabling them to deliver outstanding client results. A thoughtful, empathetic, team-focused leader, his solutions-driven expertise has been integral to MorganFranklin Consulting’s growth and development of its people and services.”
Brian Waller, Vaco Holdings CEO and Co-Founder adds, “Jeff embodies the spirit of our organization and will be able to guide our clients into the future as a strategic partner from start to finish. Thank you to Chris for leading MorganFranklin Consulting to remarkable milestones and always ensuring the successful development of our staff. I’m looking forward to working with Jeff and Chris in their new roles to drive the long-term success of the firm.”
Henry started at MorganFranklin Consulting as a Senior Consultant in 2013 and was promoted to Partner in 2019. Prior to taking on his current role, he led the firm’s Financial Services practice through seven consecutive years of over 20% growth. Since then, he’s supported his clients in navigating some of their most complicated challenges, bringing technical capabilities in the areas of transaction services, finance transformation, and technology advisory. In recent years, Henry has helped clients execute over $100 billion in complex mergers, acquisitions, and carveouts, primarily in the banking and fintech sectors.
Prior to his work at MorganFranklin Consulting, Henry spent three years at Booz Allen Hamilton. He holds a Master of Business Administration from Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business and a Bachelor of Science in Finance from Clemson University.
“It is a tremendous honor to lead a firm that cares so deeply about our clients and our people,” Henry says. “We’re living in a time where geopolitical shifts, evolving economic environments, supply chain dynamics, and opportunities for growth—whether through acquisitions or the potential to go public—can shape the trajectory of a business at any time. I look forward to helping to bring this firm into the future alongside proven leaders like Chris Mann, Ron Morgan, and the managing partners from whom I’ve learned many valuable lessons.”
