Private Equity Due Diligence and Value Creation

Consulting Point is currently partnering with a tier 1 boutique strategy consultancy in the US who support leading global corporations, venture capital and private equity firms with their strategic and investment decisions.

They have fostered a culture defined by both achievement and humility and hire exceptional individuals who are passionately dedicated to the success of their teammates. This cultivates a distinctive and motivating team atmosphere where you are encouraged to grow professionally and personally into the best version of yourself.

Their outstanding clients see them as thought partners, offering opportunities to challenge and enhance our collective thinking. Together, these elements enable them to consistently deliver exceptional results.

These firms offer a great work-life balance as there is little travel. 2-days in-office policy and the other 3 days at home. There is also very limited client site travel.

Some of their differentiators:

Smaller than the MBB but with the developmental benefits of big firm clients combined with a boutique culture and with the opportunity to lead, build and deliver leading edge projects in:

• Commercial Due Diligence (CDD) or Operational Due Diligence (ODD) - Buyside and sell-side
• Growth Strategy - Business Unit & enterprise strategy, top-line growth, commercial excellence, go-to-market, customer strategy, pricing, market sizing etc
• Value Creation - PortCo delivery model optimization, technology enablement, integration, carve-outs, rapid cost out, exit strategy etc.

Their priority is quality delivery rather than selling and there are no day 1 expectations for sales from Principals, Associate Partners, Managers and Senior Associates

Rapid career development compared MBB due to a flatter structure where your ideas will be heard, and your thoughts valued. You will coach teams and be coached with direct access to my client’s Board.

You with be provided the opportunity for P&L ownership and have direct client access, responsibility, and impact with the opportunity to build lasting professional relationships in the Private Equity US market.
