• Spearhead buy‑side and sell‑side financial due diligence engagements (including carve‑outs and divestitures), guiding clients through the full transaction lifecycle—from initial risk assessment through deal close and post‑transaction support.
• Direct the development of quality of earnings (QoE) analyses, net working capital assessments, normalized EBITDA evaluations, and cash flow analyses that surface key value drivers, risks, and opportunities for clients.
• Oversee the design and delivery of advanced analytics solutions—including data modeling, interactive dashboards, and visualization outputs—that transform complex financial datasets into executive‑ready insights.
• Drive hypothesis‑led, data‑enabled approaches to uncover performance trends, margin dynamics, revenue quality, and balance sheet considerations that inform deal valuation and negotiation strategy.
• Integrate leading analytics tools (e.g., Alteryx, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, Python) into diligence workflows to accelerate delivery speed and enhance the depth of client insights.
• Contribute to developing and implementing firm‑approved, AI‑enabled solutions for clients, in accordance with company policies on data protection, intellectual property, and professional standards.
• Stay informed about emerging AI tools and techniques and collaborate with firm leadership to identify compliant opportunities to enhance client solutions and internal processes.

Practice Leadership

• Oversee client accounts, projects, and engagements, including work plans, staffing, timelines, fee negotiations, and budgets throughout all lifecycle phases, covering strategy, goal setting, deliverables, and maintaining an integrated project plan.
• Lead business development efforts and market a full range of FDD Analytics services to prospective clients—including private equity sponsors, corporate acquirers, and lenders—leveraging existing relationships to generate new opportunities.
• Develop timely resolutions to issues, mitigate deal‑related risks, and address project team conflicts in fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environments.
• Build scalable delivery methodologies and new FDD Analytics service offerings that differentiate CrossCountry in the market.
• Cultivate the next generation of analytics talent by establishing coaching frameworks, delivering performance feedback, and sponsoring junior team members' professional growth.
• Manage teams and people by tracking and directing performance against objectives while encouraging continuous improvement and innovation.

What You’ll Bring

• In‑depth knowledge of financial due diligence concepts including quality of earnings, net working capital analysis, pro forma adjustments, and deal structuring considerations.
• Demonstrated proficiency with analytics and data platforms such as Alteryx, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, Python, or R, and the ability to apply these tools within a transaction context.
• Consistent success in building and developing strong client relationships with private equity firms, corporate development teams, and lenders across multiple industries.
• Proven experience identifying new growth and shared revenue opportunities by collaborating with sales leadership to generate new business, expand existing relationships, and increase bookings.
• Comfort with AI: Demonstrated ability to responsibly explore and adopt firm‑approved AI tools to enhance productivity and innovation.
• Continuous learning mindset: Openness to learning and applying emerging technologies including AI and automation in alignment with firm policies and client standards.
• A passion for mentoring and leading teams while efficiently implementing new ideas and initiatives.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Data Science, Statistics, Economics, or a related field; Master’s degree a plus.
• CPA, CA, or CFA certification preferred.
• Minimum 10+ years of experience in financial due diligence, transaction advisory, or a related field within a public accounting or professional services environment.
• Willingness to travel up to 30%. Travel varies based on client preferences.
