We help clients achieve their strategic and operational goals, working through a people, process, and technology lens to deliver sustainable results by addressing:

• People: Aligning organizational structures, spans and layers, decision rights, and talent across entities.

• Deep operating-model experience: organization design, spans and layers, decision rights, and headcount modeling.

• Exceptional leadership skills with a proven ability to manage cross-functional teams in high-stakes environments.

• An FP&A foundation across budgeting, forecasting, reporting, close, and cash flow forecasting, with the skill to connect financial logic to operating decisions.

• Command of SG&A analysis: run-rate builds, HoldCo versus project-level splits, and peer benchmarking.

• Design future-state operating models, setting spans, layers, decision rights, roles, and headcount for the combined or standalone business.

• Own the financial analysis. Build the SG&A run-rate, the headcount scaling model, and the current-to-pro-forma bridge, and benchmark against relevant peers.

• Act as a trusted advisor to clients, providing strategic guidance and actionable recommendations during the integration process.

• Develop and execute integration plans that address people, processes, and technology to enable smooth transitions and synergies.

• Coordinate cross-functional workstreams, ensuring alignment across operations, such as accounting, finance, HR, IT, and other critical areas.
