Description
Are you ready to make an impact? West Monroe is seeking a Senior Consultant to join our growing Merger & Carve-out Services (MCS) team. We help private equity and corporate clients navigate complex mergers, acquisitions, carve-outs, divestitures, and integrations by combining deep transaction experience with technology, operational, and financial expertise. As a Senior Consultant, you will work across the transaction lifecycle—from diligence and separation planning through Day 1 readiness and post-close execution—to help clients reduce execution risk, accelerate value realization, and build stronger standalone businesses. You'll partner with cross-functional client stakeholders to solve complex challenges, develop data-driven recommendations, and deliver measurable business outcomes. You'll also contribute to the continued growth of our M&A practice through business development, knowledge sharing, and mentoring. What You Will Do Support buy-side and sell-side merger, integration, and carve-out engagements for private equity and corporate clients across multiple industries. Develop standalone operating cost models, one-time separation cost estimates, synergy analyses, and technology financial models to support investment decisions and transaction execution. Analyze business applications, infrastructure, cybersecurity, data, and technology operating models to assess risks, identify value creation opportunities, and develop integration or separation recommendations. Support the planning, design, negotiation, and execution of Transition Services Agreements (TSAs), standalone operating models, and Day 1 readiness activities. Lead technology workstreams across post-close merger and carve-out programs while managing project plans, risks, dependencies, budgets, and executive reporting. Identify and document business, process, technology, contractual, and organizational entanglements to support successful separations and integrations. Facilitate client workshops, present recommendations to executive stakeholders, and translate complex analyses into clear, actionable insights. Leverage West Monroe's proprietary methodologies, accelerators, and Intellio™ assets to improve planning, governance, collaboration, and transaction execution. Contribute to proposals, statements of work, client pursuits, and thought leadership initiatives that strengthen the growth of the M&A practice. Mentor consultants and analysts by providing coaching, knowledge sharing, and quality review of project deliverables. Leverage AI tools to accelerate analysis, synthesize complex information, and support data-driven recommendations for clients, exercising sound judgment in evaluating outputs. Apply AI technologies (e.g., generative AI, automation tools, data models) to enhance insights, improve delivery efficiency, and elevate the quality of client outcomes. What You Will Bring 4+ years of client-facing management consulting, technology consulting, transaction advisory, or IT M&A experience supporting private equity or corporate clients. Experience supporting mergers, acquisitions, integrations, carve-outs, divestitures, or technology transformation initiatives. Experience developing financial models, standalone cost analyses, synergy assessments, TSA analyses, or technology business cases. Understanding of enterprise business applications, infrastructure, cybersecurity, data, and technology operating models within an M&A environment. Experience managing project workstreams, balancing competing priorities, and delivering high-quality client outcomes in fast-paced environments. Strong analytical, problem-solving, financial modeling, and quality assurance skills with experience using tools such as Smartsheet, Power BI, Tableau, Alteryx, or similar platforms. Excellent verbal, written, and presentation skills with the ability to communicate effectively with executive stakeholders.
