Clarkston Consulting promotes Ling Lin and Anand Nataraj to associate partner. October 22, 2026 Ling Lin and Anand Nataraj Clarkston Consulting, a business and technology consulting firm, has promoted Ling Lin and Anand Nataraj to associate partner, expanding its leadership in supply chain consulting, enterprise transformation and SAP technology services. Both executives are based in New Jersey and serve clients across the firm's core industries, including life sciences, consumer products and retail. The promotions strengthen Clarkston's leadership presence in the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania region while supporting its consulting operations nationwide. In their expanded roles, Lin and Nataraj will continue advising corporate executives on business and technology transformation initiatives, developing client relationships and supporting the firm's growth. "Ling and Anand exemplify the leadership that drives Clarkston forward," said Tom Finegan, CEO and co-founder of Clarkston Consulting. "Their expertise has helped clients navigate meaningful business and technology challenges, and their willingness to invest in those around them has strengthened our firm." Finegan said both executives have demonstrated the ability to develop long-term client relationships and deliver results across complex consulting engagements. Lin, based in Millburn, New Jersey, specializes in supply chain strategy, operational improvement and enterprise transformation for life sciences and consumer products companies. Her experience includes integrated business planning, supply chain transformation, operational effectiveness, strategic planning, post-merger integration and mergers and acquisitions due diligence. She works with corporate leadership teams to align business strategy with operational processes, technology systems and organizational change. Before her promotion, Lin served as a client sales executive at Clarkston, where she developed new client relationships, expanded existing accounts and strengthened the firm's channel partnerships. Her work also contributed to the development of Clarkston's supply chain and transformation consulting capabilities. In addition to her responsibilities at Clarkston, Lin serves on the Workforce Transformation Advisory Board for the International Accreditors for Continuing Education and Training. Nataraj, based in Plainsboro, New Jersey, brings more than 20 years of experience in enterprise resource planning and SAP consulting. He joined Clarkston in 2006 and has since helped more than 20 companies develop SAP strategies and implement enterprise technology solutions supporting business operations. Nataraj co-leads Clarkston's SAP practice, advising organizations across industries including apparel retail, life sciences and medical device manufacturing. His expertise includes SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA, along with enterprise planning, data management, business process design and systems integration. He also advises companies evaluating newer SAP technologies, including SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, SAP Signavio and SAP Joule. These engagements focus on helping organizations assess how cloud-based ERP systems, process improvements, data capabilities and artificial intelligence can support business transformation. As associate partner, Nataraj will continue helping clients manage complex ERP decisions while contributing to the growth of Clarkston's SAP consulting practice. "Ling and Anand have each made a meaningful impact at Clarkston," said Mike Hackett, president of Clarkston Consulting. Hackett credited Lin with strengthening client relationships and expanding the firm's supply chain consulting capabilities, while recognizing Nataraj's role in developing its SAP practice. "These promotions reflect the confidence their clients and colleagues place in them," Hackett said. The appointments come as companies across life sciences, consumer products and retail continue investing in supply chain modernization, enterprise technology and operational transformation. Clarkston's consulting services support organizations navigating these initiatives, including technology implementation, business process improvement and organizational change. The greater New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania region represents an important market for the firm because of its concentration of pharmaceutical, biotechnology, consumer products and retail businesses. By promoting two New Jersey-based executives, Clarkston is expanding its regional leadership while maintaining support for national client engagements. Lin's expertise in supply chain strategy and organizational transformation complements Nataraj's background in enterprise technology and SAP implementation. Together, their appointments broaden the firm's associate partner leadership across business operations and technology consulting. Clarkston did not disclose additional compensation or organizational changes associated with the promotions.
