Senior Associate Valuations

As a senior associate within the Valuations team, you will provide your clients with advice that enables them to make better decisions in a deal context.

What will you be doing?

You value companies in pre-deal situations, or other settings requiring important decision making, for accounting purposes (such as PPA, impairment test) or in a legal or tax context, for example an internal reorganization.

• The purchase or sale of an enterprise or business unit: what is an enterprise worth, what are the synergy benefits, and what is a sensible price?;

• Fairness opinions and second opinions with respect to mergers and acquisitions;

• Valuations required for disputes between parties, for example as a result of an acquisition;
• Tax structuring: through value determination and modelling, providing insights into the financial impact of various tax decisions.
