Senior Financial Analyst - M&A

High-impact role for candidates who want to work directly on cross-border M&A, private equity, valuations, financial modelling, fundraising, and transaction execution.

Role Purpose:

To support live mandates across mergers and acquisitions, private equity, strategic alliances, joint ventures, fund-raising, and corporate strategy. The role is designed for a high-calibre analyst who can combine rigorous financial analysis with strong presentation skills, commercial judgment, and execution discipline.

What You Will Work On:

• Evaluate transaction opportunities, assess deal feasibility, and identify strategic fit, synergies, value-creation levers, and investment rationale.
• Build and refine detailed financial models from scratch, including valuations, operating forecasts, transaction structures, return analysis, and scenario/sensitivity cases.
• Prepare investor-grade and board-ready materials including pitchbooks, teasers, information memoranda, valuation packs, business plans, financial forecasts, and strategic presentations.
• Support execution of M&A, PE, JV, and fund-raising mandates across the transaction lifecycle, from origination support and research to diligence, negotiation, structuring, documentation, and closing.
• Conduct industry research, peer benchmarking, market mapping, and regulatory tracking across sectors and geographies to support client recommendations and transaction strategy.
• Draft and assist with transaction and commercial documents such as LoIs, MoUs, term sheets, JV-related documents, value propositions, and other execution support materials.
• Participate in client meetings, management discussions, investor calls, and internal deal reviews, and contribute with well-prepared analysis and clear communication.
• Manage multiple workstreams with strong attention to detail, timelines, data integrity, and quality of deliverables.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

• Strong grounding in financial modelling, valuation, accounting, and corporate finance concepts.
• Excellent PowerPoint, Excel, analytical writing, and verbal communication skills in English.
• Ability to convert raw information into structured, decision, useful analysis for clients, investors, and senior management.
• Commercially aware, detail-oriented, intellectually curious, and comfortable working in a fast-paced advisory environment.
• Prior exposure to M&A advisory, transaction services, PE/VC, corporate finance, consulting, or boutique investment banking will be preferred.

Education & Experience:

• Postgraduate qualification in Finance preferred (MBA Finance / CA / CFA or equivalent).
• 8 to 10 years of relevant professional experience with a strong track record.

Why Strong Candidates Will Find This Role Attractive:

• Direct exposure to live cross-border transactions and senior client interaction.
• Hands-on responsibility across modelling, strategy, execution, and documentation, not a back-office-only role.
• Opportunity to work on complex mandates spanning M&A, PE, joint ventures, strategic alliances, and capital raising.
• Salary no bar for candidates with relevant experience and exposure
