  • Draft clear, well-evidenced diligence reports and data books for private equity and corporate clients.
  • Act as day-to-day liaison with target management, advisers and the partner group on live engagements.
  • Apply AASB and IFRS to interrogate financial information and challenge management representations.
  • Coach junior team members and contribute to proposals and pitch materials.

  • Six or more years in transaction services, financial due diligence or audit moving into deals, including time at Manager or Senior Manager level.
  • Strong command of quality of earnings, net debt and working capital analysis.
  • Fluency in AASB and IFRS and the ability to interrogate complex financial statements.
  • Understanding of the ASX environment and ASIC regulatory context as they bear on transactions.
  • Experience preparing diligence deliverables for private equity and corporate acquirers.
  • Sound grasp of SPA mechanics, completion accounts and locked-box mechanisms.
  • Strong project management and the ability to run concurrent engagements to deadline.
  • Excellent written and spoken English and confident client communication.
  • A developing record of supervising and mentoring junior staff.

Preferred Experience:

  • Exposure to FIRB-relevant inbound transactions and foreign-investment considerations.
  • Experience with superannuation and infrastructure buyer requirements.
  • Sector depth in technology, consumer, healthcare, mining services or financial services.
  • Familiarity with lender and sponsor diligence on leveraged deals.
  • Prior experience within a recognised global accounting-firm deals practice.
  • Exposure to cross-border transactions across the Asia-Pacific region.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
