Role Responsibilities

As a Manager in the Deals Strategy team, you will play a key role in delivering strategic, commercial, and operational advice to clients across the deal lifecycle, with a focus on post-merger integration and value creation. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading the execution of integrations and carve-outs, identifying and leveraging synergies to drive value creation and ensure smooth transitions, particularly within the Energy, Power & Water, Industrials, and TMT sectors
  • Deliver commercial due diligence, feasibility studies, and market assessments to support acquisitions, disposals, and growth strategies
  • Act as a key point of contact for clients, managing relationships, ensuring high-quality project delivery, and aligning expectations throughout the engagement
  • Oversee and manage complex engagements (often multiple at a time), ensuring timely delivery within budget, while leading and coaching junior consultants to drive team performance
  • Support clients, including government entities, with operational readiness activities to ensure business continuity post-transaction
  • Cultivate strong relationships with senior executives, government officials, and industry leaders to build trust and long-term partnerships
  • Collaborate with the wider Deals and PwC network to identify opportunities, contribute to proposals, and support marketing efforts to secure new mandates
  • Monitor project budgets, manage costs, and oversee client billing and collections
  • Mentor and develop junior colleagues, fostering a collaborative, high-performance environment and sharing knowledge of best practices and industry insights


  • 7+ years of experience in consulting or professional services, ideally within Industrials, Energy, TMT, or related sectors
  • Proven track record in post-merger integrations, carve-outs, and operational due diligence, from large-scale acquisitions to smaller transactions
  • Strong understanding of both pre- and post-deal commercial and operational levers (P&L, balance sheet, working capital, etc.)
  • Experience delivering transaction-related services such as operational turnarounds and value creation programs for corporates and/or private equity clients
  • Strong analytical and technical skills, including Excel modelling and financial/operational analysis
  • Proficiency in the consulting toolkit (e.g., PowerPoint, Excel) with a proactive, self-starter mindset
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to manage clients and teams effectively
  • Demonstrated ability to manage projects end-to-end, balancing multiple priorities under tight deadlines
  • Deep understanding of investment strategies, deal structuring, and the M&A process, with the ability to provide actionable insights and solutions
  • Ability to communicate confidently and persuasively with senior stakeholders across diverse audiences
  • Strong organizational and time management skills, with a focus on delivering high-quality outcomes
