We’re BDO. An accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions entrepreneurial organisations need to navigate today’s changing world.

We work with the companies that are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high growth businesses that fuel the economy - and directly advise the owners and management teams that lead them.

We’ll broaden your horizons

The Value Creation Services team is an integral part of BDO’s M&A and Deals offering. We advise businesses and private equity on operational improvement and growth opportunities to improve EBITDA and cash levels, maximise value and enhance overall performance. We support businesses to convert their strategic priorities into operational reality, with a core focus on delivering measurable value enhancement. Our sector-agnostic team operates on both the buy-side and sell-side M&A transactions, leads operational transformation initiatives for large businesses and private equity portfolio companies, and supports management teams in evaluating strategic options for their businesses.

We’ll help you succeed

Leading organisations trust us because of the quality of our advice. That quality grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with them and building long-lasting relationships.

You’ll be someone who is both comfortable working pro-actively and managing your own tasks, as well as confident collaborating with others and communicating regularly with senior managers, directors, and BDO’s partners to help businesses effectively. You’ll be encouraged to identify and draw attention to opportunities for enhancing our delivery and providing additional services to organisations we work with. Our service offerings include operational due diligence; separation & carve-out support; identification and implementation of EBITDA improvement programmes; working capital and cash optimisation; and advising on operational transformation.

We are a small, dynamic and fast-growing team. Although team members are highly numerate, we approach our assignments from an operational and performance perspective and draw upon our considerable experience in industry and advisory work in support of this service. This experience includes having implementation experience. You will have;

Requirements

• Hands-on knowledge and experience of transactions and business operations including front line and back-office functions across several business sectors

• Experience of working across one or all of Operational Due Diligence, Carve-out or Post-Merger Integration disciplines and engagements

• An understanding of the key operational working capital processes across order-to-cash, procure-to-pay and forecast-to-fulfil, including experience identifying and delivering initiatives to release cash.

• Experience conducting financial analysis of operational opportunities for EBITDA and cash improvements, within the context of the commercial requirements of the business

• Exposure to change management and experience of implementing value creation programmes

At BDO, we’ll help you achieve your personal goals and career ambitions, and we have programmes, resources, and frameworks that provide clarity and structure around career development.
