You enjoy diving into the financial data of a company and act as the financial due diligence function? And working in a truly international environment is right up your alley? Then you'll love being part of our visionary team mergers & acquisitions (M&A) and face your new challenge: to understand and question companies and their business models analytically. We at the management and technology consulting company Accenture follow a smooth and risk-focused approach to M&A. Obsessed about finding the right fit of strategic acquisition opportunities and maintaining post-integration momentum, we work hand in hand with our deal execution colleagues and other functionally specialized diligence teams to realize value in any acquisition. Ready to work in an interdisciplinary environment, along with other experts to follow Accenture's economic and strategic interests? Welcome to the team.
Your responsibilities
Acting as an internal financial due diligence advisor, you'll accompany deals from early stages to closing and beyond and report directly to our Europe Financial due diligence Lead.
You'll analyze target companies' financial performances and positions and assess the quality of earnings and key operating metrics.
This will also involve evaluating balance sheet items such as net financial debt and net working capital.
Our corporate development deal team can count on your advice: on financial risks and commercial topics with implications for negotiating shares purchase agreement – including purchase price adjustment mechanisms – as well as on items requiring commercial or financial integration actions.
What we're looking forward to
Degree in economic sciences, business administration, finance, or a related topic, ideally combined with a CA, ACA, CPA, MBA, or CFA qualification (completed or in the process of completion)
Minimum 2 years' relevant experience – for example in financial due diligence or an audit role – within the M&A Due Diligence department of one of the big four professional services firms or another big corporation
Track record in working on several financial due diligence projects
In-depth skills in financial analysis and MS Excel and fluency in English and German
