Job Description & Summary

Leading with heart, living by values
PwC Advisory is a garden of possibilities, and you’re reaping the rewards. Where you want to make an impact is always up to you. With the full support of our Advisory teams, you’ll delve into the inner workings of companies to find the best solutions for any challenge they might have. As part of the deals practice, you’ll help clients nurture trust and maintain their evolutionary edge, today and into the future. Now that’s making a difference.

Fascinated by mergers and acquisitions (M&A), restructurings and financial modelling? Want to help clients with strategic decisions? Then you could really make a difference in our Deals department!

We offer young graduates the unique opportunity to take part in a three-year (M&A) rotation programme, which allows you to work for six months in each of our four competence groups in Belgium. In your third year, you’ll have the option to choose the competence group which best suits you, and some participants may be given the opportunity to go on an international exchange within our PwC EMEA Network.

• Corporate finance : guiding corporate and private equity clients through the complete process of a company’s acquisition or disposal, from identifying strategic opportunities to pitching potential deals through to the final price and contract negotiations.

• Due diligence : analysing, validating and assessing buy-side or sell-side targets on the basis of historical and budgeted financials. You’ll help quantify any upsides and risks that may require the purchase price to be adjusted, while working closely with strategy, operations, HR, IT, tax and legal experts.

• Business restructuring services : developing hands-on financial, operational and strategic restructuring solutions to help struggling businesses get back in shape and healthy companies get even stronger.

• Valuation and modelling : advising clients on the valuation of a business or assets in the case of an acquisition, sale or restructuring, helping them create a business plan, or assisting them in some other type of valuation exercise.

The rotation program will start in September 2022. On the 22nd February, we’ll organise a one-time Deals recruitment event. If you’re interested in participating, please apply online and we’ll contact you as soon as you’ve been selected for the event (and at the latest one week before the event).
