Starting new SC M&A role after 3 YOE in ERP and tech consulting. I have 3 weeks to learn as much as I can so I don’t sound like an idiot on my first day. I bought some books, how would you prep?

Understand the M&A cycle. (Note: I am currently part of the M&A group at EY)

I didn’t have true M&A experience and had more post-merger, but I studied the lifecycle and quickly tried to map that to the deal scope on my first deal. Remember, ERP is a big part of post-close and planning for pre-close. Use your understanding of data separation/integration and layers of how data reaches the end-user as starting point. If your client is diverting, what are things that you would to start the framework? Similar question for acquisition.

Well I’m kind of hoping this gets the boost I want it to. I have been applying to jobs left and right after my company announced it was shutting down in May. I found a new job, but it is not at all the right fit - including a decrease in pay, a misogynist owner (who told me I will never get answers or respect because I’m a female), among other problems. I am hoping someone has a referral for a senior level operations position and can help me find a better fit. Thank you 🙏🏼
