Senior) Consultant; m​/f​/d IT M&A

Twinlake Advisory is a specialized consultancy for IT-driven M&A and transformation projects. We support large corporations, mid-sized companies, and private equity investors in carve-outs, post-merger integrations, and strategic realignments. In these critical phases, IT becomes a key success factor—and this is exactly where we come in: we combine in-depth analysis with pragmatic execution.

At Twinlake, we work as equals in an open, team-oriented environment characterized by strong cohesion, honest feedback, and a pronounced learning culture—pragmatic, supportive, and driven by a shared commitment to success.

As a (Senior) Consultant, you will take on independent responsibility in complex transaction and transformation scenarios—from analysis and structuring to implementation at the client.

Your responsibilities include, among others:

• Independently analyzing IT landscapes in the context of company acquisitions and divestitures, including deriving clear action recommendations
• Conducting and structuring IT due diligence analyses
• (Designing and) managing carve-outs and integrations
• Contributing to and leading work streams in transformation and IT programs

A key part of your role is also active involvement in project management. You will take responsibility for work packages, work streams, and—depending on your experience—larger sub-projects, including:

• Setting up and managing project plans and work packages
• Preparing and conducting steering committees, management updates, and workshops
• Tracking project progress, risks, dependencies, and decisions, and translating them into clear next steps
• Coordinating with various stakeholders from management, IT, business units, and external service providers

You will work closely with experienced colleagues, serve as a reliable point of contact for clients within your area of responsibility, and support the development of analysts.

• Projects at the intersection of technology, strategy, and corporate development
• Direct exposure to M&A transactions and strategic transformations
• Ownership of work packages, work streams, and—depending on experience—larger sub-projects
• Close collaboration within an experienced, dynamic, and committed team
• Development of strong expertise in managing complex projects and programs
• Flexible working model with home office options combined with project-based on-site presence
• Regular team events, including monthly gatherings with team-building activities and workshops

We are looking for colleagues at our Munich location who think analytically, are eager to take responsibility, and can independently structure complex topics.

Typical qualifications include:

• A completed degree (Bachelor’s or Master’s) in Business Informatics, Computer Science, Business Administration, Industrial Engineering, or a comparable field—or a vocational training as an IT specialist with relevant additional qualifications (e.g., project management)
• Several years of practical experience in consulting, IT projects, project management, or M&A/transformation environments; for Senior Consultant profiles, ideally initial experience leading sub-projects or work streams
• Interest in IT transformation, digitalization, corporate development, and M&A topics
• A structured, analytical mindset and the ability to translate complex issues into clear recommendations and actionable next steps
• High level of initiative, sense of responsibility, and motivation for continuous professional and personal development
• Very good German and English skills
• Confident use of Microsoft Office 365, especially Excel and Power Point

Experience with project management tools such as Jira, Azure Dev Ops, MS Project, or Smartsheet is a plus—but not required

If you don’t meet every requirement, we still encourage you to apply—motivation, curiosity, and relevant skills matter.

At Twinlake, you won’t work on anonymous large-scale projects. Instead, you’ll be part of small teams tackling business-critical topics for our clients—close to decision-making processes and with a direct impact on project success.

This means for you:

• Visible impact instead of a supporting role
• Early ownership and steep learning curve
• Direct exposure to strategic decision-making and close collaboration with top management
• Pragmatic project work focused on implementation rather than pure conceptual work
• Structured development through on-the-job training and individual development plans
• Clear career paths with opportunities to specialize in different areas
• High degree of autonomy and the opportunity to contribute your own ideas and actively shape the development of Twinlake
• Close collaboration within an experienced and motivated team, including mentoring

If you are looking for challenging projects, want to take responsibility, and aim to grow in an ambitious yet supportive environment, Twinlake is the right place for you. We look forward to your application.
