MissionSquare Appoints VP and Strategic Programs Head
MissionSquare has named Max Hamm as vice president and head of Strategic Programs.
In this newly created role, Hamm will oversee MissionSquare’s enterprise-wide efforts to guide the scoping, evaluation, and execution of strategic projects. He reports to Drue Holloway, chief strategy officer at MissionSquare.
“We are thrilled to welcome Max to our growing strategy team at MissionSquare,” said Andre Robinson, chief executive officer and president of MissionSquare. “Max’s breadth of experience and innovative approach to transformation will be instrumental as we continue to shape our strategic direction and deliver quality service, investments, and technology to all our customers.”
Hamm joined the team on June 23 from McKinsey & Company, where he most recently served as an engagement manager in the Wealth and Asset Management and Insurance practices. During his time at McKinsey, he co-led research efforts for the firm’s retirement practice, which focused on understanding consumers’ shifting needs in the wealth accumulation and decumulation journey across the evolving retirement ecosystem. Prior to McKinsey, he held various roles at The Carlyle Group and KPMG.
In this newly created role, Hamm will manage MissionSquare’s portfolio of enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, working closely with teams across the organization to identify and prioritize growth efforts that align with MissionSquare’s long-term goals.
He joins an expanding strategy team at MissionSquare, which has been a focus for the company over the past several months as the organization looks to continue its growth and momentum in the market. In late 2024, MissionSquare appointed Holloway as the new chief strategy officer and most recently hired Josh Hsu as vice president and head of Firm Strategy.
“As we continue to drive our growth and expansion efforts, Max will play a critical role in ensuring MissionSquare’s strategic initiatives are effectively prioritized and aligned with our strategic goals,” added Holloway. “Max brings to our team a great depth of experience in the industry and in transformation efforts that will undoubtedly support his success in this role and our growth as a company, and we are excited to have him on board.”
Hamm is based in Northern Virginia. He holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the George Washington University School of Business. He also holds a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
