At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence.

We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go.

Join EY and help to build a better working world.

EY Parthenon’s Large-cap Private Equity Origination practice is seeking an Assistant Director (Senior Manager) to join the team as the sector lead for Health, Science & Wellness (“HSW”). The role is based in London and focuses on transaction opportunities that span Europe and EY’s wider EMEIA footprint.

The Origination team is an entrepreneurial group within EY’s EY Parthenon (“EYP”), otherwise known internally as SaT, service line. The team is focussed on generating new deal opportunities by supporting our private equity (“PE”) client base through regular deal pipeline and asset-specific discussions. The team is organised along sector lines, and works closely with practice areas such as (e.g., financial diligence, strategy, and operational value creation) on key transactions by proactively providing valuable insights, knowledge and intelligence on prospective large-cap deal targets across Europe. The team is a crucial lynchpin in the EYP go-to-market strategy for PE, and the aim is to enhance our existing Health, Science & Wellness dialogue with PE sector teams aligned to HSW.

The opportunity

* build external relationships with dealmakers at large-cap PE with strong life sciences teams, selected corporates and with other market advisors (bankers, lawyers etc)
* develop selected account and relationship management responsibilities.
* build relationships across EY’s Health, Science & Wellness team, the Origination-Key Executive Programme practice and the broader EMEIA firm.
* develop sector knowledge and Health, Science & Wellness deal evaluation and valuation techniques.
* support the development of thematic pieces and pursuits in the areas of digital health, outsourced pharma services, and pharmaceuticals, among other sub-sector opportunities; and
* be a key member of an elite, highly experienced team central to helping deliver SaT revenue and growth.

Your key responsibilities

As the Origination Health, Science & Wellness sector lead, you will be the central point of contact for deal flow within the sector. You will be responsible for managing both the short and medium-term sector pipeline by sourcing, investigating and distributing deal intelligence to the SaT Partners. Another essential part of the role involves developing market-leading insight discussion materials on upcoming pipeline targets and sector themes (“pursuits”), then delivering this alongside pursuit team deal experts to selected Health, Science & Wellness Funds, PE and corporate clients.

Your responsibilities will involve internal discussions with relevant people from the SaT Service Line and qualitative and quantitative analysis to develop pursuits. You will also be required to form relationships with Investment Bankers and other advisers to chase leads and gather market intelligence.

You will also have the opportunity to support the wider Origination team where relevant in team management and preparing sector agnostic insights (e.g. our Western European deal pipeline, PE portfolio company analysis, etc.)

Skills and attributes for success

* Strong interpersonal skills; client-centric
* Team player
* Strong communication skills, including crafting client meeting notes and email interactions
* Excellent analytical and written skills
* Strategically and commercially astute
* Enthusiastic and flexible attitude to work
* Self-starter and initiative to drive pursuits forward
* Exceptional organizational skills
* Culturally savvy in a pan-European work environment

To qualify for the role you must have

* Professional ACA qualification or equivalent
* A bachelor’s degree 2:1 or above or equivalent
* Deal execution experience and/or technical background (minimum 5 years)
* Financial literacy (understanding of integrated financial statements and reporting, modelling skills)

Ideally, you’ll also have

* Understanding of private equity / private capital
* Health, Science & Wellness sector experience
* Growing network of contacts in the market (Health, Science & Wellness and PE professionals, bankers, lawyers, etc.)

What we look for

The ideal candidate will be highly motivated with a genuine interest in providing our clients with new and insightful information on upcoming and live transactions. We’re looking for a self-starter who will thrive on working as part of a team and driving real results.
