David is a senior partner in McKinsey’s Israel office, where he was the Israel office managing partner from 2021 to 2025.
David previously led the Social Sector, Healthcare, & Public Sector Entities Practice in Europe, established our work in the cybersecurity space, and led our services for defense ministries and armed forces globally.
Originally from London, David returned to Israel in 2021, bringing more than 20 years of experience serving companies across multiple industries on topics ranging from strategy to operational transformation and procurement. His focus over the last few years has been on government transformations with a particular expertise in defense, and he has increasingly applied his expertise to support related initiatives since 2022, driven by the renewed focus on defense in Europe.
David’s projects have included multiyear transformations in aerospace and defense manufacturing, application of lean management techniques for maintenance and optimization of organization design and personnel management, and major corporate transformations covering topics including portfolio strategy, sales growth, and operational efficiency. He has supported multiple substantial transformations related to indirect and direct purchasing and supply chain design and manufacturing.
David also aids McKinsey’s pro bono efforts, applying his experience in military logistics to support disaster recovery teams. He led our aid efforts following the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, working with the Haitian government, leading NGOs, and other organizations in the international community to manage disaster recovery and reconstruction operations. He has played a major role in our COVID-19 support for governments in Europe.
