Organizations are currently sitting on fragmented data with inconsistent governance, unable to bridge the gap between AI ambition and AI readiness. And the pressure to drive meaningful returns is intensifying. What’s missing is the experience to architect, govern, and deliver AI at the complexity level most organizations require.
“Amadally has led large-scale AI and data programs from inside some of the world’s most successful organizations,” said Scott Rottmann, President of Consulting Services at RGP. “His experience, especially within the heavily-regulated industry of financial services, gives our clients something they don’t get from most advisors: someone who has actually delivered AI value at enterprise scale.”
Hosseinbukus brings more than 30 years of experience across AI, technology, consulting, and financial services. In his new role, Hosseinbukus will lead RGP’s AI strategy, data and analytics modernization, intelligent automation, and governance capabilities — helping clients accelerate adoption while managing risk.
“Amadally will help our clients move from AI experimentation to AI competitive advantage,” said Stephen Hook, Digital Solutions Leader at RGP.
Most recently, Hosseinbukus served as Managing Director and Global Head of Innovation and AI Delivery for Wells Fargo’s Corporate and Investment Bank, leading the firm's enterprise AI delivery strategy across Markets, Lending, and Investment Banking. He oversaw a portfolio of more than 50 strategic AI initiatives that spearheaded digital transformation, improved operating efficiency, and delivered significant, measurable business value across the organization. He built and led a 70-person cross-functional team, established the AI roadmap and execution model for the division, and drove adoption across the organization.
Prior to Wells Fargo, he spent eight years at IBM Technology & Consulting in senior roles including Lead Account Partner for a global banking client and Practice Lead Partner for IBM’s Capital Markets AI and Automation practice. Earlier, he held senior technology leadership positions at Deutsche Bank — including Global Head of Regulatory Controls Technology and Global Head of Investment Banking Sales and Client Technology — and at Credit Suisse, where he served as Chief Technology Officer for the firm’s Data & Analytics business. He holds a B.Sc. in Computer Science from the University of Durham, UK.
“AI is reshaping every industry, but sustainable value will come only from embedding it into the fabric of the business with trust, accountability, and measurable impact at its core,” said Hosseinbukus. “This is a defining moment for organizations. Those that pair bold ambition with disciplined execution and responsible governance will set the pace for innovation and long-term growth.”
