Corporate Finance

eXplore Corporate Finance: This is your well-founded and flexible training on the way to becoming a top SME consultant.

Start immediately – you can join the programme at any time. As a colleague in our teams, you will gain project experience in our national and international corporate and private equity projects right from the start.

At the end of your program, you will have acquired sufficient knowledge and skills through your chosen home base, rotations, and comprehensive training to positively shape your future career. You decide at the end of the program in which area you would like to specialize.

Your home base is your personal launch pad into the world of corporate finance. From there, you can complete up to two further placements in the other areas (usually 6 months at a time depending on the project situation) to round off your training perfectly. You also have the opportunity to complete one or more placements in Audit to get to know the world of auditing.

Transactions: In the Transactions department, you will support our clients in the purchase and sale of companies as part of the financial due diligence or in the sale as part of a financial factbook (a detailed presentation of the key financial figures of the company being sold).

Valuation: In valuation projects, the focus is on company valuations, fairness opinions and impairment tests, which our clients require in the context of transactions or for tax and business management purposes. Also important: The area of financial modeling, in which we create integrated financial models in Excel for our clients, which they use for corporate planning, reporting or transactions, among other things.

M&A Advisory: There are exciting national and international projects in Mergers & Acquisitions! You will support us in the implementation of projects, e.g. in the preparation of process documents (teasers, information memorandums, management presentations etc.), carry out market and company analyses and draw up long and short lists of potential buyers or target companies.

Recovery: In the Recovery team, we support our clients in restructuring situations and develop creative and sustainable solutions for them. You will support us in the preparation of restructuring concepts and company analyses or concepts for optimizing the financial situation as well as in supporting the successful implementation.

For all areas applies: We advise national and international clients from various sectors, e.g. automotive, software/IT, services or healthcare, as well as private equity investors.
