• Develop and lead the pitch in partnership with the PMD Investment Lead, client account teams and Offering Portfolio and Industry teams; first-chair at the appropriate level based on deal stage

• Lead or coordinate financial modeling for business cases and complex deals (P&L modeling, NPV, IRR, DCF, sensitivity analysis, product pricing, IP valuation)
• Lead partner negotiation, contracting, and deal closure; develop the Deloitte business case and facilitate the co-investment approval process
• Demonstrated ability to lead through ambiguity and manage without direct authority, driving alignment across complex networks

• International experience and/or ability to operate effectively in cross-cultural contexts

Qualifications

Required:

• 8+ years of relevant professional experience in strategy, innovation, corporate development, M&A, or venture-building roles

• 6+ years of business case development and firm financials (P&L and cashflow modeling; NPV, IRR, DCF; sensitivity analysis) to lead and guide deals in coordination with teams
• Ability to travel 10-50%, on average, based on the work you do and the clients and industries/sectors you serve.
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future.

• 4+ years experience with complex financial modeling
• Background in working with or within startups, new ventures, or innovation labs

The disclosed range estimate has not been adjusted for the applicable geographic differential associated with the location at which the position may be filled.
