About The Role
M&A Operations is a market leading team sitting within the Strategy& business unit in the Deals line of service, assisting both Corporate and Private Equity (PE) clients in a wide range of high impact business situations. Most of our work is in the Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) space, both pre and post deal, and we also deliver non-deal transformation projects, applying a fast paced Private Equity mind-set.
About The Role
M&A Operations is a market leading team sitting within the Strategy& business unit in the Deals line of service, assisting both Corporate and Private Equity (PE) clients in a wide range of high impact business situations. Most of our work is in the Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) space, both pre and post deal, and we also deliver non-deal transformation projects, applying a fast paced Private Equity mind-set.
Our team contains approximately 200 dynamic and friendly people from a wide range of backgrounds and disciplines.
Our service offerings broadly fall into the below four categories. In all cases we are supporting clients to maximise value:
* Buy and sell side operational due diligence – i.e. has the business been performing well? What could be improved to unlock further value for our client?
* Carve out and divestment support – i.e. what does the business look like standalone, what support and transitional services will it need to function?
* How can we help our clients execute the separation and ensure a smooth Day 1?
* Mergers & Acquisitions Integration (inc Synergy development and review) – i.e. how can our clients protect and grow value in an acquisition, what is the right level of integration to achieve this and what does an effectively run integration programme look like?
* Performance improvement using our Rapid Value Creation methodology (including pre-deal, post-deal or outside the deal channel) i.e. where might value lie in the business and how can we generate sustainable cost savings?
What Your Days Will Look Like
Whilst the team is London based, deal activity is global, therefore projects can involve travel which can be at short notice.
Occasionally projects may also involve being based overseas for multiple weeks with trips home weekly or bi weekly and candidates should be prepared for this.
The M&A Ops team is structured by sector, with specialist cross-sector teams in Finance, Technology and Integration. Although you will be aligned to the IPS-EURI sector team (Industrial Products & Services and Energy, Utilities, Resources & Infrastructure), the type of client projects you work on will vary based on the demand and the current deal market, therefore a degree of flexibility is expected
The Skills & Experience We're Looking For
* From an operational line management role or a transformational role in a corporate, have been involved in the operational side of private equity or worked in operational transaction services in the past
* Experienced in one or more of the following: lean manufacturing, manufacturing best-practice, operational restructuring and cost reduction
* Able to demonstrate a strong understanding of a function such as; engineering, procurement, supply-chain or manufacturing operations
* Have the ability to quickly assess the performance of a business (or elements of it) and outline improvement opportunities based upon limited information and/ or interactions with Management
What You’ll Receive From Us
No matter where you may be in your career or personal life, our benefits are designed to add value and support, recognising and rewarding you fairly for your contributions.
We offer a range of benefits including empowered flexibility and a working week split between office, home and client site; private medical cover and 24/7 access to a qualified virtual GP; six volunteering days a year and much more.
