RGP has appointed Jessica Block as Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer. In this role, she will advance the firm’s internal AI capabilities, expand AI-driven solutions for clients, and help organizations effectively integrate and scale AI to achieve business outcomes. The appointment reflects RGP’s move to place AI more centrally within both its operating model and client offerings.
Block most recently served as Executive Vice President, Head of Growth and Transformation at Factor, where she led the company’s AI transformation and advised Fortune 500 legal departments on AI applications. Earlier in her career, she held senior leadership roles at Ankura Consulting Group and FTI Consulting, building experience across technology-driven transformation, legal services, and enterprise advisory work. Her background combines hands-on AI implementation with broader business and client-service leadership.
Why this matters: Appointing a first Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer signals that RGP sees AI as a strategic growth lever, not just a toolkit for internal efficiency. Bringing in a leader from Factor with prior senior experience at Ankura and FTI Consulting suggests the firm wants practical AI execution that can translate into both stronger internal capability and more credible client-facing transformation work.
