Why Grant Thornton | Stax Transactions
Work directly with leading private equity firms, growth investors, and Fortune 500 executives on high-stakes strategic and transaction decisions.
Lead high-impact engagements with real ownership
Experience the best of both worlds: the entrepreneurial culture and agility of a boutique consulting firm combined with the scale, reach, and platform of Grant Thornton.
Gain broad exposure across industries, transaction types, and growth challenges in a model designed to accelerate commercial judgment and leadership development.
Operate in lean, collaborative teams where senior leaders are accessible, mentorship is real, and contributions are visible.
Help build a rapidly growing platform post-acquisition, with opportunities to shape capabilities, develop new offerings, and contribute to firm-wide growth initiatives.
Deliver meaningful client impact without the traditional road-warrior consulting lifestyle through a more sustainable, low-travel operating model.
Join a high-performance culture that values intellectual curiosity, initiative, collaboration, and merit-based advancement.
As a Commercial Due Diligence Senior Consultant, you’ll focus on buy‑side and sell‑side transaction engagements, supporting corporate clients and private equity investors as they evaluate growth opportunities, revenue sustainability, and market risk. You’ll work alongside experienced professionals across Grant Thornton | Stax Transactions to deliver clear, data‑driven insights throughout the transaction lifecycle.
From day one, you’ll be empowered to make an impact—helping clients make confident investment decisions while continuing to build your leadership and advisory skillset.
Your day‑to‑day may include:
Lead and deliver commercial due diligence engagements for corporate and private‑equity‑backed transactions
Analyze markets, customers, competitors, pricing, and go‑to‑market strategies to assess commercial risk and opportunity
Conduct market sizing, growth forecasting, customer segmentation, and demand analyses
Prepare clear, concise, and investment‑committee‑ready findings summarizing key risks and value drivers
Draft and review diligence reports, executive summaries, and presentation materials
Collaborate with Financial Due Diligence, Value Creation, IT, and Human Capital teams to deliver integrated transaction insights
Coach and mentor associates; contribute to performance feedback and team development

Strong analytical skills across market sizing, customer analysis, and competitive dynamics
Ability to synthesize complex data into clear, actionable insights
Excellent written, presentation, and interpersonal communication skills
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced, transaction‑oriented environment
Preferred
Experience working directly with private equity clients
