Booz Allen Hamilton Chief Financial Officer Lloyd W. Howell, Jr. will be retiring Dec. 31, and Chief Strategy Officer Matthew Calderone will replaced him, effective Oct. 1.
“It has been a tremendous honor to work alongside this talented team during my tenure at Booz Allen as we transformed the company into a world-class leader and established a foundation for long-term, sustainable growth and expansion,” Howell said.
Howell will continue in his role as executive vice president to assist with the transition in the coming months.
“Lloyd has made tremendous contributions to Booz Allen during his 34 year-tenure, culminating most recently in his role as CFO,” said Booz Allen President and CEO Horacio Rozanski.
“Lloyd has helped to guide Booz Allen through a period of tremendous growth and transformation that delivered significant growth in shareholder value and strong returns,” Rozanski added. “He has helped build a world-class financial team and contributed to making Booz Allen the industry growth leader we are today. He leaves our firm well-positioned to scale and grow even faster in the future.”
Calderone began his Booz Allen career in 2000 as a management consultant serving commercial and government classified clients. He worked closely with Rozanski in the design and execution of Booz Allen’s Vision 2020 strategy, which transformed the firm into a technology-first industry growth leader.
Calderone became chief strategy officer in 2020 and has led a portfolio of strategic projects including the conception and design of VoLT (Velocity, Leadership, Technology), Booz Allen’s long-term growth strategy.
“As CFO, Matt will guide Booz Allen to continue our track record of delivering outstanding shareholder value,” Rozanski said. “I am excited to work closely with Matt over the coming years as we build the Booz Allen of the future.”
