Are you ready to make an impact?
West Monroe is seeking a Senior Consultant to join our growing Merger & Carve-out Services (MCS) team. We help private equity and corporate clients navigate complex mergers, acquisitions, carve-outs, divestitures, and integrations by combining deep transaction experience with technology, operational, and financial expertise.
As a Senior Consultant, you will work across the transaction lifecycle—from diligence and separation planning through Day 1 readiness and post-close execution—to help clients reduce execution risk, accelerate value realization, and build stronger standalone businesses. You'll partner with cross-functional client stakeholders to solve complex challenges, develop data-driven recommendations, and deliver measurable business outcomes. You'll also contribute to the continued growth of our M&A practice through business development, knowledge sharing, and mentoring.
What You Will Do
- Support buy-side and sell-side merger, integration, and carve-out engagements for private equity and corporate clients across multiple industries.
- Develop standalone operating cost models, one-time separation cost estimates, synergy analyses, and technology financial models to support investment decisions and transaction execution.
- Analyze business applications, infrastructure, cybersecurity, data, and technology operating models to assess risks, identify value creation opportunities, and develop integration or separation recommendations.
- Support the planning, design, negotiation, and execution of Transition Services Agreements (TSAs), standalone operating models, and Day 1 readiness activities.
- Lead technology workstreams across post-close merger and carve-out programs while managing project plans, risks, dependencies, budgets, and executive reporting.
- Identify and document business, process, technology, contractual, and organizational entanglements to support successful separations and integrations.
- Facilitate client workshops, present recommendations to executive stakeholders, and translate complex analyses into clear, actionable insights.
- Leverage West Monroe's proprietary methodologies, accelerators, and Intellio™ assets to improve planning, governance, collaboration, and transaction execution.
- Contribute to proposals, statements of work, client pursuits, and thought leadership initiatives that strengthen the growth of the M&A practice.
- Mentor consultants and analysts by providing coaching, knowledge sharing, and quality review of project deliverables.
- Leverage AI tools to accelerate analysis, synthesize complex information, and support data-driven recommendations for clients, exercising sound judgment in evaluating outputs.
- Apply AI technologies (e.g., generative AI, automation tools, data models) to enhance insights, improve delivery efficiency, and elevate the quality of client outcomes.
What You Will Bring
- 4+ years of client-facing management consulting, technology consulting, transaction advisory, or IT M&A experience supporting private equity or corporate clients.
- Experience supporting mergers, acquisitions, integrations, carve-outs, divestitures, or technology transformation initiatives.
- Experience developing financial models, standalone cost analyses, synergy assessments, TSA analyses, or technology business cases.
- Understanding of enterprise business applications, infrastructure, cybersecurity, data, and technology operating models within an M&A environment.
- Experience managing project workstreams, balancing competing priorities, and delivering high-quality client outcomes in fast-paced environments.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, financial modeling, and quality assurance skills with experience using tools such as Smartsheet, Power BI, Tableau, Alteryx, or similar platforms.
- Excellent verbal, written, and presentation skills with the ability to communicate effectively with executive stakeholders.
- Bachelor's degree required; relevant certifications such as PMP, LeanIX, Smartsheet, or other project management or technology certifications are a plus.
- Experience integrating AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) into day-to-day workflows to enhance productivity and insight generation, coupled with strong critical thinking to assess accuracy, mitigate bias, and ensure high-quality outputs.
- Ability to travel 25 to 50%.
- A commitment to inclusion and diversity, and openness to new ideas and perspectives.
- Ability to work permanently in the United States without sponsorship.

Tips for Your Mergers And Acquisitions Job Search
Quantify your deal experience on your resume
List the transaction size, industry, and your specific role on each deal you worked on. Hiring managers in mergers and acquisitions want to see deal count and dollar volume, not just job titles and tenure.
Tailor your pitch to buy-side versus sell-side
Corporate development teams and private equity firms prioritize different skills than investment banks. Adjust your resume headline and cover letter to reflect whether you're targeting an acquirer, an advisor, or a fund.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists mergers and acquisitions openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Highlight your financial modeling software fluency
Call out the specific tools you use, such as Excel LBO models, FactSet, Capital IQ, or Pitchbook. Generic mentions of 'financial analysis' won't differentiate you from other candidates who did similar work.
Prepare a deal walk-through for every interview
Interviewers will ask you to walk through a transaction you worked on. Practice a two-minute version covering the rationale, your role, the structure, and the outcome so you can answer without hesitation.
Negotiate offer timing around deal cycles
If you're mid-deal, flag that in your final conversations so the team can align your start date. Leaving a live transaction without transition can follow you in a small industry where relationships matter.
Mergers And Acquisitions Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most mergers and acquisitionss?
The companies hiring the most mergers and acquisitionss right now include JPMorganChase, Baker Tilly Canada, and RSM, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Illinois, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Openings shift frequently as deal pipelines change, so checking current listings regularly gives you the most accurate picture.
How many mergers and acquisitions jobs are remote?
About 51% of mergers and acquisitions openings are fully remote or hybrid as of August 2026, with in-office expectations remaining highest for analyst and associate roles at banks and advisory firms. Corporate development positions at larger operating companies tend to offer more flexibility, particularly for professionals in integration management or strategy functions.
How do you become a mergers and acquisitions professional?
Start by building a foundation in corporate finance through coursework or an entry-level role in investment banking, accounting, or financial analysis. Develop hands-on experience with financial modeling and valuation. From there, target analyst or associate roles at advisory firms, corporate development teams, or private equity shops to build direct deal experience and work your way up.
How do you break into mergers and acquisitions with little experience?
Focus on roles adjacent to deal work, such as equity research, commercial lending, or financial planning and analysis, where you can build modeling and analysis skills. Complete a relevant certification like the CFA or a financial modeling course to demonstrate initiative. Networking with professionals at boutique advisory firms is often more productive than targeting bulge-bracket banks when you're starting out.
What does the mergers and acquisitions interview process look like?
Most mergers and acquisitions interviews include a mix of technical questions on valuation, LBO modeling, and accounting, along with behavioral questions about deal experience. Many firms add a modeling test or case study requiring you to analyze a hypothetical transaction. Final rounds typically involve senior leadership and focus on fit, judgment under pressure, and how you communicate complex analysis to non-financial stakeholders.
Where can I find and apply to mergers and acquisitions jobs?
You can find and apply to mergers and acquisitions jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience level and target industry, then apply directly to each opening that fits.
