Everest Group, a global leader in research and advisory services, has announced the appointment of Jimit Arora as its new Chief Executive Officer, marking a pivotal moment in the firm’s 35-year history.
Effective as of February 1, 2025, this leadership transition will see Peter Bendor-Samuel, who founded Everest Group and has served as CEO since 1991, now assume the role of Founder and Executive Chairman.
Peter will continue to actively contribute to the firm’s strategic vision and evolution, but his primary focus will be on working closely alongside the firm’s clients to help navigate the complexity of the global sourcing and technology landscape, as well as dedicating time to the ongoing development of Everest Group’s market-leading research and insights.
Jimit, who celebrates two decades at Everest Group this year, brings a wealth of leadership experience from within the firm, most recently serving as Managing Partner since January 2024.
In his Managing Partner role, Jimit has spearheaded the firm’s enterprise services practice, guiding a team of analysts dedicated to addressing the needs of Fortune 500 companies, in the process providing guidance to the world’s leading organizations.
