Senior Analyst

Imagine yourself thriving in an innovative and supportive environment, building your M&A technology, media and telco (TMT) experience whilst advising a diverse range of clients on some of their most important decisions – whether it be a founder selling their “life’s work”, or an executive team making a career-defining acquisition. Are you in?

About the Team

We are M&A Advisors who specialise in the Technology, Media and Telco (TMT) sector – we provide tailored M&A advice to ensure our clients pursue and successfully complete the transactions that are right for them.

Our M&A Advisory team works directly with shareholders, founders and C-suite executives throughout the entire M&A lifecycle to deliver advice on every aspect of a transaction, from initial valuation guidance, through financial and strategic analysis, to finding and negotiating with the right counterparties. We do this across a wide range of transactions including acquisitions, divestments, recapitalisations and capital raisings.

We are a group of high-calibre professionals led by a diverse leadership team who are supportive, collaborative and innovative. We execute some of Australia’s most interesting transactions across entrepreneur-backed and family-owned businesses, private equity, and corporate Australia.

We are also a global team – working on cross-border deals with multi-disciplinary teams – allowing our people to build wide networks across the world’s largest professional services firm.

What will your typical day look like?

This opportunity will see you working directly with market-leading M&A lead advisors to support with:

• Execution of exciting deals with clients including international and national corporations, emerging companies, private businesses and private equity firms, across a range of industry sectors including healthcare, consumer business, technology, financial services, manufacturing, etc.

• Delivery of deal documents such as strategy papers, information memoranda, management presentations, valuation analysis, purchaser co-ordination, and taking responsibility for preparation of information for client/bidder/stakeholder communications
• Preparation of valuation support materials including financial modelling, DCF analysis, comparable companies, precedent transactions and integrated operating models
• Assistance with management of due diligence processes including responsibility for the data room and Q&A process
• Assistance with end-to-end project management of transactions including direct liaison with vendors/bidders/boards and other deal stakeholders

Enough about us! Let’s talk about you...
You are someone, who:

• Has a structured thinking style with excellent analytical and financial skills to support complex transactions
• Has demonstrated interest in M&A – you are intellectually curious, actively read the financial press, and have knowledge of the broader M&A deal/ transaction process
• Has experience working with technology, media and telco companies
• Can structure, draft and manage the finalisation of pitch books and other business development work to win prospective mandates
• Has advanced MS Office skills and ideally some experience with research tools (S&P Capital IQ, etc.)

• Has previous experience in an M&A transaction environment, which would be seen favourably but is not critical; you might be in a lead advisory or transaction services role currently, but you might also be in another professional services environment with the hunger to build a career in M&A!
