GRAPH is a boutique strategy consultancy built around a single objective: to deliver superb evidence-based advice to help our clients acquire and build stronger businesses. Our clients are top-tier Private Equity firms, Corporate Development, M&A and Strategy leaders from the largest and greatest global corporations.
GRAPH was founded in 2017 by two consulting industry veterans who together have more than 30 years' experience in M&A advisory work - and the firm has grown rapidly since. GRAPH employs best-practice methods to support top-tier investors and leading corporations in assessing potential investments through a combination of original research and savvy analysis. Our work ranges from technical to creative: often our clients call on us to assess more than just what is on the ground, but to imagine and pressure-test what could be in the future.
GRAPH's diverse workforce is composed of individuals with a wide variety of backgrounds brought together by common traits: integrity, curiosity, and the desire to work on a close-knit team in a positive, supportive, and highly collaborative environment.
At GRAPH, we are committed to helping exceptional consultants build exceptional careers. Delivering superb strategic advice to clients with real-world deadlines and competitive pressure isn't easy. That's why we only seek to recruit the very most able and dedicated team members - who love the content of our work.
