Education

Salvino attended Marietta College, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in industrial engineering in 1987.[2][3] Salvino was a starter for the Marietta Pioneers, the school’s basketball team, where he was a forward.[4][5]

Career

edit

Salvino’s first major position was with Andersen Consulting, where he became an associate partner in 1997.[6] He later left the company for Exult Inc.[7] By 2003, he had been promoted to executive vice-president for North American client sales and accounts at Exult,[8] and by April 2004, he was the company’s president for the Americas region.[9] Before he left for Accenture in 2006, Salvino had been appointed global sales and accounts co-leader for Hewitt's human resources outsourcing group, which had acquired Exult.[10]

Salvino joined Accenture in 2006 to serve as managing director of business process outsourcing (BPO). In September 2009, he was named group chief executive of business process outsourcing.[10]

In 2014, Salvino became group chief executive of Accenture operations.[11] As of 2016, when he left Accenture Operations, Salvino supervised 100,000 employees, with the division generating $7 billion in annual revenue.[2]

In 2016, Salvino joined Carrick Capital Partners as one of the firm’s operating partners.[12] He later became a managing director.[13]

In May 2019, Salvino joined the board of directors of DXC Technology, and in September of that same year, he became CEO of the company.[13]

In 2020, Salvino oversaw a deal to sell DXC's state and local health and human services business to Veritas Capital[14] for $5 billion.[15]

In 2021, Salvino rejected an offer from French IT firm Atos to acquire DXC.[15][16] Salvino said the bid undervalued the company based on recent quarterly gains.[17]
