About The Position

EY-Parthenon’s unique combination of transformative strategy, transactions and corporate finance delivers real-world value – solutions that work in practice, not just on paper. Benefiting from EY’s full spectrum of services, we’ve reimagined strategic consulting to work in a world of increasing complexity. With deep functional and sector expertise, paired with innovative AI-powered technology and an investor mindset, we partner with CEOs, Boards, Private Equity and Governments every step of the way – enabling you to shape your future with confidence. As a Transaction Analytics Senior Associate, you will leverage analytical tools and technologies to provide critical data-driven business, financial, and commercial insights to support clients in their M&A, divestitures, carve-outs, and other transformational events.

In both M&A and value creation projects, you'll work closely with corporate and private equity leaders, strategists, and decision-makers, offering data-driven insights that help shape strategic decisions. No two clients are the same, and since you'll be involved across multiple projects, you'll find your work varies from day to day.
