The Heitmeyer Story

Our Founder, Norm Heitmeyer, worked at one of the largest banks in the country as an Operations and IT Leader for nearly 16 years and leveraged consultants on a regular basis. Norm noticed a lack of industry experience from external resources that often left him feeling he did not realize the value he expected. As a result, Norm founded Heitmeyer Consulting in 1999 with the mission of building a Financial Services focused consulting firm that leveraged proven industry professionals to address this value gap. In January of 2018 Pat Scott joined the Heitmeyer team with a group of investors that believed in Norm’s vision. Norm, Pat and the new board members have a wealth of financial industry experience and the additional capital allowed Heitmeyer to invest further in bringing value to its client partners.

Today Heitmeyer Consulting has a network of more than 65,000 highly skilled financial services professionals servicing the US and Canada in Banking, Asset Management, Investment Management, Insurance and FinTech. Since Pat joined forces with Norm in January of 2018, Heitmeyer Consulting has grown by over 450% and has deployed resources in 21 States to over 40 clients. We truly value our clients, consultants and employees and appreciate the opportunity to be part of our community and make a positive impact.
