About the Role

FTI Consulting’s EMEA Private Equity team is growing, and we are looking for exceptional Senior Consultants who can operate at the intersection of operations, technology, and value creation. You will work directly with leading Private Equity funds and portfolio company leadership to assess performance, identify upside, and deliver change at pace.

This is a hands‑on, high‑visibility role for individuals who thrive in fast‑moving deal environments and enjoy solving complex operational and technology challenges under pressure.

What You’ll Do

• Operational & Technology Due Diligence
  • Building a bottom‑up view of how a business really works - its operations, systems, architecture, scalability, and risks.
  • Identifying red flags
  • Quantifying investment needs
  • Translating findings into commercial implications for investors.
• Value Creation & Modernisation
  • Developing investor‑ready value creation plans across both operational and technology levers: pricing, procurement, automation, cloud migration, platform consolidation, productivity, and SG&A optimisation.
• Sign to Close Execution
  • Shaping TSAs, Day 1 readiness plans, and continuity strategies across operations, IT, data, access, and security.
  • Identifying critical path items that could impact deal timelines or stability.
• Post‑Deal Integration & Separation
  • Leading workstreams on synergy capture, cost takeout, footprint consolidation, IT carve‑outs, system migrations, and platform integrations.
  • Working directly with operators, CTOs, CIOs, and engineering leads to deliver, not just recommend, change.

What You’ll Need to Succeed
