Can someone in the EY-Parthenon Singapore office tell me more about the difference between the role of a senior associate doing valuation in the strategy and transactions team and the generic strategy team? Saw 2 job postings with one specific for valuation, modeling and economics, and another for just the generic strategy team. Would really appreciate if I can reach out to someone to have a chat about this. Thanks much!

I’ve been recruited for portfolio valuation roles at multiple PE funds if that’s what you mean, so I would say yes. Though it’s probably a more likely exit for people with the financial modeling experience that comes with disputes projects as opposed to people who mostly do compliance work.
As for due diligence, I was under the impression that most PE funds don’t handle DD in-house and generally hire 3rd parties for that function
There’s also just a huge difference in terms of WLB between being a revenue generator at a PE fund vs forensics.
I had one offer that was kind of a hybrid role where half my time would be spent with the front office. Depending on variable comp, the pay progression was probably 50-100% higher. But so were the hours. It was a minimum of 50 hours a week in “slow times” but I was told I could generally expect closer to 60-80 which IMO seems totally unsustainable. PE is just a totally different lifestyle.
