We are building out its India team and hiring a Senior Associate to support cross‑border M&A transactions, primarily serving U.S.‑based private equity funds and strategic acquirers.

This is a remote, front‑end, client‑facing role. You will work directly on live deals and engage with investors and management teams across the transaction lifecycle.

• Strong analytical capability and comfort with financial and operational data
• Structured thinker who thrives in fast‑paced, high‑accountability environments
• Experience working with global or U.S.‑based clients preferred
• Flexibility to work across U.S. time zones given the front‑end, client‑facing nature of the role

Compensation will be competitive with top‑tier consulting and transaction advisory firms, aligned with experience and leadership capability.

• Early ownership and direct transaction exposure
• Lean teams with meaningful responsibility
