EY se refuerza en capital riesgo con seis fichajes en Alvarez & Marsal

EY has bolstered its venture capital business by hiring six professionals from Alvarez & Marsal. Sources confirm the move, which includes Rodrigo Rodríguez returning as a partner after nearly a decade at the firm. EY's Big Four division, led by Federico Linares, is expanding its strategy and transaction-focused brand, EY-Parthenon, by bringing in Rodriguez alongside a director and four additional professionals.

The hires will strengthen EY-Parthenon's advisory services, particularly in private equity due diligence for M&A transactions. Rodríguez, who left Alvarez & Marsal in July to join EY in 2013, brings over 20 years of strategic consulting experience, specializing in supporting private equity funds, especially in pre-acquisition due diligence and value creation.

Before his return to EY, he spent four years at Alvarez & Marsal and previously worked at EY-Parthenon, KPMG, Oliver Wyman, and Accenture. Rodríguez, an alumni of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, holds an Executive Program from MIT. The six new hires, joined by Rodriguez, are part of EY's strategy to reinforce its teams and attract top talent.

In its latest fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, EY named a total of 51 partners in Spain, 2 more than the previous year, with 33 internal promotions and 18 new hires. Nearly half of the new partners, 24, became members of the partnership, while 27 became non-equity partners.
