Transaction Advisory Strategy Manager

Your Role

We’re seeking an M&A strategist to help clients unlock value through mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, and alliances. You will partner with senior executives to define deal strategy, assess market opportunities, and design integration or separation plans that deliver measurable business results. You will lead M&A work streams and ensure high-quality delivery across the deal lifecycle—from target screening to due diligence, integration planning, and post-Deal value realization.

• Lead work streams across M&A engagements: deal framing, target screening, due diligence, integration planning, joint venture development, carve‑out, and divestiture planning.
• Apply rigorous analysis to identify, quantify, and validate value creation opportunities, translating findings into actionable recommendations.
• Lead and inspire teams of strategy consultants, ensuring delivery excellence and fostering a high‑performance culture.
• Mentor and coach junior team members to grow their M&A expertise and consulting capabilities.
• Foster collaboration across cross‑functional and geographically dispersed teams.
• Contribute to Accenture’s M&A thought leadership agenda through insights, articles, and market perspectives.
• Support go‑to‑market initiatives and pipeline pursuits, including opportunity identification, proposal development, and client presentations.
• Leverage GenAI tools to accelerate M&A value realization, from market scans to integration planning.
• Support the design and adoption of AI‑augmented frameworks, playbooks, and performance measurement tools to strengthen and future‑proof M&A execution.

As needed, could be up to 80%.

• Bachelor’s degree required.
• Minimum of four years of relevant experience in strategy consulting, corporate development, investment banking, or private equity, with a focus on M&A.
• Proven M&A lifecycle experience: strategy, diligence, integration or separation, carve‑outs, synergy planning.
• Experience leading work streams and contributing to client relationship development.
• Strong quantitative analysis skills, including financial analysis, competitive intelligence, and market analysis.
• Strong communication, presentation, and executive presence skills.
• Experience with synergy modeling, transaction cost analysis, and value capture planning.
• Ability to operate effectively in fast‑paced, ambiguous environments with multiple priorities.
• Experience collaborating across deal ecosystems: bankers, legal advisors, target leadership, and operational executives.
• Sector expertise in relevant industries (technology, energy, consumer, industrials).
• Exposure to AI/GenAI tools and their application in strategic or M&A‑related contexts.
• Technology/IT M&A functional experience: IT due diligence, integration or separation planning, IT TSA design, application portfolio rationalization, ERP carve‑outs, cybersecurity risk assessment, and IT cost or synergy modeling.
• MBA or advanced degree in strategy, finance, or a related field preferred.
