We are looking for Senior Consultants who can operate at the intersection of operations, technology, and value creation for leading Private Equity funds. In this hands‑on, high‑visibility role you will assess performance, identify upside, and deliver change at pace in fast‑moving deal environments.
What You’ll Do
- Operational & Technology Due Diligence
- Build a bottom‑up view of how a business really works – operations, systems, architecture, scalability, and risks.
- Identify red flags.
- Quantify investment needs.
- Translate findings into commercial implications for investors.
- Value Creation & Modernisation
- Develop investor‑ready value creation plans across operational and technology levers such as pricing, procurement, automation, cloud migration, platform consolidation, productivity, and SG&A optimisation.
- Sign to Close Execution
- Shape TSAs, Day1 readiness plans, and continuity strategies across operations, IT, data, access, and security.
- Identify critical path items that could impact deal timelines or stability.
- Post‑Deal Integration & Separation
- Lead workstreams on synergy capture, cost take‑out, footprint consolidation, IT carve‑outs, system migrations, and platform integrations.
- Work directly with operators, CTOs, CIOs, and engineering leads to deliver, not just recommend, change.
How You’ll Grow
We will invest in your professional development through on‑the‑job learning, self‑guided courses, certifications, and a dedicated coach. You’ll receive tailored programmes for key career milestones and be prepared to take on higher‑level roles.
What You’ll Need to Succeed
- Comfortable working with limited data, tight timelines, and ambiguous situations.
- Ability to translate technical and operational issues into clear commercial insights.
- A hands‑on mindset – willing to dig into data, processes, systems, and operations directly.
- Strong stakeholder management skills with both technical and non‑technical audiences.
Basic Qualifications
- Experience in operational consulting, technology consulting, transaction advisory, performance improvement, software/IT transformation, or a PE‑backed environment.
- Experience on buy‑side or sell‑side transactions across operational or technology workstreams, or equivalent.
