Strategy & Transactions Consultant / Senior Consultant

Our Strategy & Transactions Practice are looking for an experienced Consultant / Senior Consultant to join the team. 

We are a rapidly growing global team of transactions and strategy experts, who are striving to be the global go-to provider for deal advisory work in Energy, Utilities, and Renewable Infrastructure. Our work spans the value chain of these sectors, including technology, services, manufacturing and supply chain.
We mostly work with Private Equity, Infrastructure and Corporate clients - they tell us they love our 'speed to insight'. This is because we staff teams not just with CDD experts but also with sector specialists; this approach places a much lower emphasis on external experts and allows us to leverage Baringa's unique IP and bankable models that have been built up through years of Energy / Utilities / Infrastructure sector leadership.  
Despite our rapid growth, we pride ourselves on our collaborative and open culture, and the entrepreneurial spirit of the team. We are now an established team of over 50 in the UK and are also looking to grow our Bulgaria team. This makes it a very exciting time to join and help shape the future direction of Baringa's Strategy & Transactions practice.
We committed to creating the 'best place to work in transactions and strategy'; come and play a role in this exciting journey.
