Enterprise Systems Consultant
This is a senior technology advisory role focused on helping investors and business leaders make high-impact decisions about enterprise systems and technology operations.
You will lead technology diligence and value-creation engagements, often in fast-moving transaction environments where clear judgment and practical expertise are essential.
Your work will span enterprise applications, business processes, infrastructure, managed services, data, controls, and operating models.
You will assess complex technology environments, identify the issues that materially affect transactions or transformation plans, and translate findings into actionable recommendations.
You will work directly with investors, boards, executives, and management teams, communicating technical conclusions in clear business terms.
Beyond diligence, you may develop post-close technology roadmaps, support vendor selections, govern transformation programs, or step into interim leadership assignments.
The role offers significant autonomy and variety, with opportunities to collaborate with specialists across cybersecurity, data and AI, software, integration, and carve-out services.
Accountabilities
- Lead sell-side technology diligence engagements, including evidence review, management interviews, buyer-readiness assessments, remediation priorities, and responses to buyer questions.
- Lead buy-side technology diligence, assessing enterprise systems, infrastructure, organizations, vendors, contracts, technology spend, scalability, resilience, and future investment requirements.
- Evaluate ERP, warehouse management, WMS, CRM, PSA, and related enterprise applications, including process fit, customization, integrations, data quality, reporting, controls, adoption, licensing, vendor support, and lifecycle risks.
- Assess end-to-end business processes such as order-to-cash, project-to-cash, procure-to-pay, record-to-report, month-end close, recruit-to-retire, warehouse operations, fulfillment, and IT service management.
- Conduct process walkthroughs, management and user interviews, evidence reviews, and operating-metric analysis to identify weak handoffs, control gaps, manual workarounds, data issues, key-person dependencies, and scalability constraints.
- Assess traditional and hybrid infrastructure, including data centers, colocation, networks, identity, end-user computing, backup, disaster recovery, hybrid cloud, and migration of packaged applications to cloud infrastructure.
- Evaluate MSP and MSSP arrangements, including service scope, pricing, contracts, service levels, operational performance, transition risks, and governance.
- Assess IT operating procedures covering service desk operations, incidents, problems, changes, access management, onboarding and offboarding, asset management, configuration management, escalation, and service-level reporting.
- Identify and quantify material technology investments, including system replacements, deferred upgrades, infrastructure remediation, provider transitions, and additional staffing or capability requirements.
- Translate technical and operational findings into concise, evidence-based conclusions relevant to investment theses and understandable to senior non-technical stakeholders.
- Develop practical post-close technology and systems roadmaps, and where appropriate support vendor selection, delivery governance, operational improvements, or interim leadership requirements.
- Collaborate with specialists across cybersecurity, data and AI, product and software, integration, and carve-out services when deeper expertise is required.
- Contribute to methodologies, benchmarks, training, and service development based on client and operational experience.

- Strong analytical and financial judgment, including the ability to estimate one-time and recurring technology investments.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage investors, boards, executives, functional leaders, and technical teams.
- Strong ability to distinguish symptoms from root causes and assess whether challenges originate from processes, systems, data, controls, organization, training, governance, or service-provider performance.
- Ability to work effectively with incomplete information, make uncertainty explicit, and identify the evidence needed to reach sound conclusions.
- Self-directed, hands-on working style suited to fast-moving, remote client engagements.
- Experience as a CIO, VP of IT, Head of Enterprise Applications, enterprise systems program leader, technology operating partner, or senior M&A technology advisor is a plus.

- Experience with Salesforce, professional-services automation platforms, WMS, warehouse operations, or eCommerce is a plus.
