Jason Salzetti, a principal at Deloitte Consulting, has been selected to succeed Mike Canning, a previous Wash100 awardee, as head of the professional services firm’s government and public services practice.
Salzetti, a member of Deloitte’s U.S. board of directors, will oversee the GPS practice with over 26,000 personnel focused on delivering consulting services to customers in federal, state and local government, nonprofit and higher education markets, Deloitte said Monday.
He is a three-decade Deloitte veteran who most recently served as head of the firm’s integrated state, local and higher education practice, which supported clients in meeting the demand for benefits and services during the COVID-19 pandemic.
He has led citizen services improvement efforts and other digital transformation initiatives in support of public sector clients for the past 12 years.
“Jason’s deep technical experience coupled with his humanity and ability to build highly effective teams will continue to help our government and higher education clients tackle their most difficult challenges and differentiate Deloitte in the marketplace,” said Dan Helfrich, chair and CEO of Deloitte Consulting and a two-time Wash100 awardee.
