Focussed on client outcomes, seasoned experts lead every engagement, in an operating model powered by AI and free from audit conflict.\nUnity Advisory is a new kind of partner for the office of the CFO. Founded by senior leaders from the world's top advisory firms and backed by Warburg Pincus, we provide integrated finance, commercial, tax and deals support: expert advice, sharper execution, and delivery models built around how organisations operate today. CFOs need trusted advisers without legacy complexity, so we pair expert human judgement with proprietary AI workflows and smart automation, free from audit conflicts.\nThe Role\nWe built our deals practice around the client's decision: whether to buy, whether to sell, at what price, on what terms. We work alongside our clients rather than at arm's length, in the room while the deal decision is being made, and our support carries on beyond signing: into the 100-day plan, the hold period and the eventual exit. And that support draws on the whole firm: our tax, finance and commercial specialists work as one team with the deals practice, so the advice a client gets after signing is as integrated as the diligence that came before it.\nWe're looking for a Manager to join our Financial Due Diligence team. You'll run buy-side and sell-side engagements day to day: getting into the numbers, managing the team on the ground, and making sure clients get clear, well-supported findings on time.\nYou'll bring solid FDD or transaction services experience from a Big 4 or top-tier advisory firm, and own an engagement from scoping through to final findings. You'll work alongside our Partners and Directors and directly with clients and target company management from day one. This is a hybrid role based in our Mayfair office.\nWhat You'll Do\nManage buy-side and sell-side financial due diligence engagements from scoping through to completion.\nAnalyse quality of earnings, net working capital, cash flow and other issues that decide a deal, and turn the findings into a clear, well-supported story for the client.\nRun the engagement team day to day: reviewing work, coaching junior staff, and keeping everyone (including the client) up to speed on progress.\nInterview target company management and build working relationships with clients, private equity investors, and other advisors on the deal.\nDraft and quality-check diligence deliverables so they're accurate, clear, and ready for Director or Partner sign-off.\nWork alongside Unity's data and AI specialists to make our analytics standard practice on every engagement.\nTake part in business development: proposals, pitches, and staying close to opportunities as they arise.\nWhat You'll Bring\n5+ years' experience in Financial Due Diligence or Transaction Services from a Big 4 or top-tier advisory firm.\nHands-on experience managing buy-side and sell-side FDD assignments from start to finish.\nStrong technical grounding in accounting and the deal issues that matter most: quality of earnings, working capital, and cash flow.\nA track record of being an excellent team player in multidisciplinary engagements.\nClear and confident communication (both written and verbal) with clients and senior stakeholders.\nCuriosity and genuine interest in how technology and AI evolve financial due diligence practice and playing a key role in shaping it.\nQualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).\nNice to Have\nExperience with Private Equity clients or PE-backed portfolio companies.\nExposure to cross-border or international transactions.\nExperience with data and analytics tools such as Power BI, Alteryx, or Databricks.\nSector experience in areas like TMT, Consumer, Healthcare, Business Services and Industrials.\nAdditional Information\nAt Unity Advisory, we are committed to providing an inclusive and accessible recruitment process. In line with the Equality Act 2010, we will accommodate any suitable candidate requiring assistance to attend or conduct an interview. If you need any adjustments or support, please let us know when either scheduling your interview or in your application cover letter.
