“Gary will be joining April 3rd as managing director of social services leading on non-profits and purpose work,” David Meadvin, an advisor to Oaktree, told amNewYork Metro. “Gary has incredible experience and the firm is thrilled to have him.”
Carone left City Hall himself at the start of this year, having served as the mayor’s right hand for just 12 months. He launched Oaktree shortly after departing the administration in January and has alreadysuch as the Durst Organization and SL Green Realty Corporation. “Frank Carone has been very successful, historically, before he was in City Hall, and after he left City Hall he will continue to be very successful as an attorney and [a] businessman,” Sheinkopf said. “And Gary Jenkins is an expert on the vexing problem that cities throughout the country and localities seem to be incapable of solving, so it’ll probably present some real opportunities for both of them.
