Director, Transaction Advisory Services

The Role Somewhere between a Big 4 TAS practice and a lean boutique firm that punches well above its weight, Intrinsic has built something different. We are a private, independent advisory firm with significant employee ownership, and our Transaction Advisory Services practice sits at the center of how we serve the private equity community. We are looking for a Director to lead financial due diligence engagements from the front: owning the analytical work, leading client conversations, developing junior talent, and contributing to the continued growth of the TAS practice.

This is not a title with layers of bureaucracy above it. Directors at Intrinsic have meaningful authority over engagements, direct access to PE sponsors and deal teams, and a real seat at the table as we build. If you have logged significant reps in buy-side and sell-side diligence, can lead a quality of earnings analysis as instinctively as breathing, and are energized by the idea of doing that work inside a firm where your contributions are visible and your ownership stake grows alongside the firm's success, this is worth your attention.

What You'Ll Do

Engagement Leadership You are the senior person accountable for the work. You scope the engagement, structure the analysis, set the pace, and ensure every deliverable meets the standard our clients have come to expect. You are not handing off work to review it later; you are in it alongside your team.
