Our clients are varied and include top ASX organisations, not-for-profit companies and private clients. We use global experience combined with a mix of technology and financial expertise to rapidly develop an understanding of the target/client business to quickly assimilate the key technology issues, synergies, risks and upsides around a transaction.

Our team is looking for a Technology focussedSenior Associateto work as part of a team of problem solvers with demonstrated technology, deals and consulting experience.
You'll have plenty of support and opportunities to grow - no two days are the same as you assist in the management of a portfolio of clients and be a part of business development.

How to transform and right-size the parent organisation post-separation?
Day 1 to Day 100 – how do we safely take control of the technology environment whilst managing risk in the first 100 days? What are the key priorities and quick wins to focus on?
Integration and optimisation – what is the right level of technology integration and transformation to optimise the business and grow value? How do we implement sustainable cost savings? How do we run the integration program?
