Senior Consultant/Consultant, Transaction Services

Overview

At KPMG, you’ll join a team of diverse and dedicated problem solvers, connected by a common cause: turning insight into opportunity for clients and communities around the world.

Our Transaction Services team helps our clients cultivate value from mergers and acquisitions (M&A) with a forward-thinking approach to deal planning. We are looking to grow our team with a deeply capable Senior Consultant and/or Consultant.

Our team helps buyers, sellers, private equity investors, and lenders in developing and executing on their M&A strategies. As trusted advisors to our clients, we keep in regular dialogue with the CEO, CFO, Principals, and other the primary decision makers to keep them well consulted through the deal lifecycle.

We offer our clients start-to-finish support in the acquisition process, including coordination and implementation of financial due diligence investigations, input on strategy, identification and mitigation of risk areas, and input and advice on contract terms geared to reduce risks. We also assist our clients with a host of services to help close the transaction and prepare for post-deal integration.

KPMG’s Deal Advisory practice is continuing to grow and we are currently looking for professionals in our downtown Calgary office at the Senior Consultant and/or Consultant level for Transaction Services team.
