Alison Hunter

Ali is a Senior Vice President and founding member of Raines International’s Advisory: Leadership & Org Consulting Practice, identifying, shaping, and delivering services beyond executive search that can truly add value. A former waitress and ice cream scooper in high school and college, Ali was always drawn to people-facing service jobs. She ditched the menus and remains fascinated with the people space, as well as the opportunity to make it better, smarter, and more transparent and equitable.

Ali graduated from Columbia Business School where she focused on Human Capital and Data & Analytics, spending her summer as a Data & Analytics intern with Estee Lauder’s Innovation team as part of the company’s Presidential Management Associate Program. She built on her passion for the people space with her independent study on the evolution of management and human resources practices, following several years as an executive search consultant moving from research through to client management and development.
