As a senior consultant within the Financial Services (“FS”) Valuations team, you will provide your clients with advice that enables them to make better decisions in a deal context. For example, performing valuations for clients that are buying or selling a business, helping companies in strategic decision-making, supporting the client in optimising the value potential of their business and post-deal services such as Purchase Price Allocations (PPA).
What does your work look like?
You will be mainly focussing on valuations of companies in the Financial Services (FS) industry. More specifically in the banking and insurance sector. You value companies in pre deal situations, or other settings requiring important decision making, accounting purposes (such as PPA, impairment test) or in a legal or tax context, for example an internal reorganization. Furthermore you will work on business modelling. Finally your banking and insurance sector knowledge will be of use in many other disciplines within the dealcycle, such as: M&A strategy, due diligence, corporate finance and carve out or integration.
Our clients are the large insurance companies and banks in the FS sector combined with mid range clients and other FS industry clients like fintech, leasing and asset management clients.
In your role as a senior consultant you will have your own responsibilities within the larger project. We will guide and coach you in your development to become an expert in your discipline.
In your daily job you will work on:
- With the purchase or sale of an enterprise or business unit: what is an enterprise worth, what are the synergy benefits, and what is a sensible price?
- Drawing up and assessing of financial projections;
- Value creation analysis: why does an enterprise lag behind the competition and how can additional value be created?
- Building M&A and valuation models for clients which they will use to make decisions and continue monitoring the performance of a business after a transaction;
- Modelling of the key value drivers of an insurance company or bank;
- Financial statement analysis (post-deal): performing Purchase Price Allocations after closing the transaction and providing support with the annual impairment testing procedures.
You are ready for a next step in your career and you like to specialize in the financial services sector. You are ready to make an impact with your advice based on your knowledge of the banking and insurance sector. You are a teamplayer and you love to work on several projects at the same time.
