You will work closely with clients on complex, high-impact engagements, where your insights and capabilities will drive real results. At the same time, you will play an active role in shaping our team, contributing to a strong culture and supporting the development of future leaders.

Skills and attributes for success

You are analytically strong and comfortable working with complex data and problem-solving, using AI-enabled tools to enhance analysis and insight generation. You bring a structured and pragmatic approach, combined with strong business understanding and attention to detail.

You thrive in fast-paced environments and can manage ambiguity while maintaining focus on delivering high-quality outcomes. At the same time, you communicate clearly and confidently, translating complexity into actionable insights for both clients and colleagues.

You bring experience from client-facing or in-house roles across M&A execution (pre- and/or post-deal) and operational delivery, for example:

• Product and technology diligence
  • Assessment of the product portfolio and roadmap, together with the underlying technology and R&D setup to evaluate commercial attractiveness/value creation potential
• IT diligence
  • Evaluating the IT environments, from strategy to costs, to identify risks and opportunities, and to inform the investment case
• Technology integration and separation
  • Leading technology workstreams, from strategy to execution/operationalization
• Digital value creation
  • Assessing digital and AI-driven value creation opportunities, and implications for the deal theses and post-deal value capture

As a Senior Consultant, you will work across a range of M&A engagements spanning M&A strategy, operational diligence, as well as value creation and deal management. You are passionate about the operational aspects of M&A, thrive in fast-paced and ambiguous environments, and build trusted relationships with clients and colleagues.

Your main responsibilities include:

• Conducting operational due diligence/value creation analysis
• Managing and driving workstreams across pre- and post-deal engagements
• Supporting business development through pitch content, proposals and client conversations

What we look for

As our new colleague you bring 3-6 years of experience from strategy and M&A consulting or industry experience. You bring an inclusive approach, building strong relationships with both clients and colleagues and are a strong communicator who can translate complex ideas into clear and actionable insights. You take ownership of your work with a consistent focus on quality and impact.

What’s in it for you

• Work on complex, high-profile M&A and divestment engagements
• Collaborate with integrated teams across geographies and disciplines
• Continuous coaching, feedback and formal learning to support your development
• A purpose-led culture focused on creating long-term value for clients and society
• Hybrid work model, balancing in-office and client-site collaboration with flexibility
• A role with broad responsibility and room to shape how we deliver and grow

What you can expect during the recruitment process

• Interview process will include a take-home case and an on-the-spot case
• Your CV gives us the basics; a strong cover letter helps us understand your motivation and relevant experience beyond M&A consulting
