Join EY and build a career that's as unique as you are. We're seeking a Manager with expertise in Commercial Due Diligence, Strategy Consulting, and the Industrials sector to drive growth within our practice. This role involves collaborating with private equity investors and corporate clients to evaluate investment opportunities across various industrial markets.

Your role will be pivotal in executing diligence and independently leading workstreams from initial hypotheses to final recommendations. You'll contribute to a leading firm while playing a key part in expanding our Industrials focus.

Lead commercial diligence and growth strategy engagements using an "answer-first" approach for private equity and corporate clients. Independently manage critical diligence workstreams, including market assessments, growth outlooks, customer analysis, competitive benchmarking, and target positioning.

Execute day-to-day CDD tasks, formulate hypotheses, structure analyses, guide junior team members, and synthesize findings into client-ready recommendations. Conduct in-depth market and value chain analyses within Industrials, identifying growth drivers, margin dynamics, competitive landscapes, and key transaction risks.

Review transaction rationales to pinpoint critical business issues, commercial risks, and value creation opportunities. Support management interviews, expert calls, and customer research to develop evidence-based conclusions. Assist in business development by leading pursuits and nurturing client relationships. Contribute to building the Industrials practice through knowledge sharing and thought leadership.

Possess significant experience in Strategy Consulting, Commercial Due Diligence, or Transaction Advisory from leading consulting firms. Demonstrate a strong track record of delivering Commercial Due Diligence, growth strategy, market assessment, or transaction-related engagements.

Relevant sector experience within Industrials, encompassing industrial products, manufacturing, building products, packaging, automotive, engineered products, or industrial services, is essential. Proven ability to independently manage workstreams, supervise analysts, and deliver high-quality outputs with minimal supervision.

Strong commercial acumen is required to assess industries, markets, competitors, customers, and value chains, identifying key investment risks and opportunities. An ideal candidate will have 7-9 years of experience, a deep understanding of Industrials markets, and experience with multiple buy-side/sell-side CDD engagements. Comfort operating in fast-paced private equity environments and the ability to structure problems, manage stakeholders, and translate analysis into actionable insights are crucial. You should also be adept at coaching junior team members while remaining hands-on with analysis.
