• Work collaboratively with clients to clarify their strategic aims and design customized execution plans that drive business growth and operational effectiveness.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including tax, legal, and operational experts, to gather and assess relevant information for thorough due diligence processes.
• Develop and present comprehensive reports and presentations that encapsulate findings, emphasize strategic insights, and outline actionable steps for implementation.
• Actively seek out and cultivate new business opportunities by leveraging existing client relationships and crafting targeted proposals for strategic projects.
• Engage in business development activities by participating in client interactions, presentations, and industry conferences to showcase EY-Parthenon Strategy & Execution services and capabilities.
• Guide and mentor junior team members, fostering a culture of collaboration and encouraging innovative problem-solving.
• Keep abreast of industry developments, regulatory shifts, and emerging best practices in strategy and execution to continuously enhance service delivery and client value.
• Use EY’s internal AI-powered tools and data platforms to streamline analysis and improve accuracy.

Skills and attributes for success

• University degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business, or a related subject.
• At least 5+ years of directly relevant experience in strategy/management consulting, M&A or investment banking.
• Must have hands-on experience in delivering Commercial Due Diligences and/or strategy engagements, including market sizing.
• Experience in managing client-facing projects/workstreams, reviewing junior team output and presenting conclusions to senior stakeholders.
• Experience in a Big Four or management consulting company is strongly preferred.
• Advanced understanding of accounting and financial statements.
• Knowledge of business administration and business processes.
