Description
Why Alvarez & Marsal?
Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) is growing fast - double digits each year - and by now is #4 top-tier consulting firm globally with 11.000+ staff across 40 countries.
We’re the disrupter in the consulting industry. A&M has become the global leader in “value capture” for Private Equity sector and Corporates. We executed large and complex turnarounds for organisations like Lehman Brothers and FTX (Crypto).
We have a different proposition distinguishing us from other consulting firms. Our success comes from:
- Strategy as well as Execution. We do Strategy as well as Execution. We stay until the identified impact is captured.
- Senior team with proven industry experience. We execute projects with a small, but very senior team (that has done this before) – typically consisting of former top-tier strategy, management consulting and C-level executives.
- Faster time to impact. Delivering impact is part of our DNA – especially when the problems are complex. Our approach allows us to deliver better & faster results.
In the Netherlands A&M has grown fast and currently is a team of 100+ consultants – across Restructuring & Turnaround, Private Equity Performance Improvement, Transaction Advisory and Financial Services divisions.
