CTG hires healthcare and life sciences leader

CTG (NASD: CTG), a Buffalo, NY-based staffing provider, named Alfred Hamilton as VP and general manager of CTG Healthcare and Life Sciences, effective July 22. Hamilton will lead the day-to-day operations of the practice, provide input on the practice’s strategic direction and be accountable for the group’s financial performance.

Hamilton joins CTG from the Milken Institute School of Public Health at George Washington University where he served since 2011 as the senior advisor to the associate provost for military and veterans affairs and as an assistant professor teaching various health IT courses. In addition to his role at George Washington University, Hamilton was president and CEO since 2010 at Technology Consulting Solutions. Prior to Technology Consulting Solutions, Hamilton was VP, strategic federal health care solutions, for Evolvent Technologies, Inc.

CTG earlier this year named former Dell exec Cliff Bleustein as president, CEO and board member.

“Al Hamilton is a dynamic and innovative leader,” said Bleustein. “Throughout his career, he has demonstrated the unique ability to build, manage, and lead diverse global teams. Al has worked on a variety of initiatives to successful outcomes, often in remote and challenging environments. His broad experience in health IT, including practical experience as a CIO, academic rigor, national thought leadership, and consulting, makes him especially qualified to lead CTG’s Healthcare and Life Sciences practice through this critical period of transformation in healthcare delivery.”

CTG ranked as the 17th-largest IT staffing firm in the US in 2014.
