About Ellie Acton

Ellie Acton's role as a Corporate Development Director bridges the gap between our service lines and core functions, acting as a catalyst for complex and strategic National Leadership Team projects.  
Ellie has been with RSM for eight and a half years. She previously worked in the criminal justice sector, joining RSM from the Ministry of Justice.

During her first six years at RSM, Ellie worked in client-facing teams, supporting our clients with business transformation and performance improvement. She is qualified at master’s level in criminal psychology but also holds qualifications in programme and project management.

"I absolutely love problem solving and change, so this is the dream role for me at RSM. It allows me to explore our opportunities and address some of our internal pain points."

Outside of work, Ellie is a keen tennis player and recently played in a tournament where she was only fourth to last - an improvement on the previous year.
