Senior Consultant Operational Due Diligence and Value Creation

Are you intrigued by operating models and eager to improve operational efficiency in an M&A environment? Do you want to apply your analytical mindset on high-impact deals for leading Private Equity clients?  Join our Delivering Deal Value (DDV) team within PwC's Deals practice — the most successful deals practice in the Netherlands. You'll work on operational due diligence and value creation projects for corporate and private equity clients, in a diverse and international team. You'll gain direct exposure to top-tier PE clients, a global network, and challenging projects where your recommendations directly impact deal outcomes. 

This is what you'll do 
You'll be part of an inclusive, experienced advisory team that supports corporate and private equity firms in identifying, quantifying and delivering full deal value — with greater speed, insight and confidence. You'll work on challenging client assignments in both pre- and post-deal phases, using the latest technology including AI-tools, and grow in an environment where coaching and personal development are central. 

Our approach combines industry experience with data analytics and practical sector knowledge. Projects typically start early in the deal cycle and deliver concrete operational upsides that directly influence the deal offer. In your role, you will: 

• Identify operational gaps at leading businesses and provide recommendations that drive value creation; 

• Develop implementation plans and quantify savings using a driver-based approach and industry benchmarking data; 

• Drive transformation initiatives with a focus on short- and long-term value realization; 

• Manage client relationships at both executive and operational level throughout all project phases; 

• Contribute to our core services: Operational Due Diligence, Pre-deal Value Creation, and Carve-out support.
