Our freelance corporate finance consultants' profiles take on operational responsibility in challenging financing and transaction projects. They create robust financial models based on DCF, LBO, and multiples methods, develop capital structure analyses, and support processes from the initial valuation through to closing. Typical deliverables include information memoranda, fairness opinions, investor pitch decks, and debt capacity analyses—documents that carry immediate weight in negotiations with banks, private equity investors, and strategic buyers.
Companies turn to our profiles when a sale or acquisition is on the horizon, a growth financing round needs to be structured, or the CFO position is temporarily not staffed. Especially during time-sensitive phases—shortly before due diligence or during ongoing restructuring negotiations—external expertise is crucial without a lengthy onboarding period. Those who act now secure the necessary capacity exactly when the need is greatest.

Our experts combine modeling, valuation, and deal logic with practical experience from buy- and sell-side processes. They structure decision-making documents that are consistent with market standards and investor logic. This ensures that outstanding issues are resolved early on, before they become costly later in the process.
With these profiles, you receive a consistent narrative, KPIs, and models all from a single source. This reduces follow-up questions during Q&A sessions and enhances comparability across scenarios, covenants, and financing options. Results are presented in a way that allows decision-making bodies to review them quickly.
Our profiles systematically integrate your data, assumptions, and stakeholder expectations. They deliver robust interim results in short iterations, allowing you to make course corrections in a timely manner. This is particularly important during tight timelines surrounding signing/closing, refinancing, or budget cycles.

We assess your specific needs: the type of transaction or financing situation, industry, project duration, and the areas where the profile will be working. In doing so, we determine whether the focus should be on financial modeling, process support, investor communications, or a combination of these—ensuring that the match is targeted from the very beginning.
We match your requirements with the transaction profiles, industry expertise, and methodological skills of our vetted candidates. We’ll present you with suitable candidates within 24–36 hours—carefully curated, not just a long list.
What matters to us isn’t whether a resume lists “Corporate Finance” as a profile—but whether that person has a proven track record of delivering results in comparable transactions. Valuations that stand up to scrutiny, financings that have been closed, and processes that were structured to achieve their goals: These are the standards by which we measure our recommendations.

A corporate finance consultant supports companies with financing, M&A, and value-driven decisions through modeling, valuation, and structured decision-making documents. They translate strategy and operational drivers into cash flows, scenarios, and capital structures. Typical tasks include valuation, business case logic, investor presentations, and coordination with banks, investors, and management.
The need arises when capital decisions are pending and the financials, narrative, or structure aren’t robust enough. Typical signs include contradictory plans, numerous inquiries from banks or investors, or a lack of transparency regarding cash, covenants, and valuation drivers. With these profiles, you can quickly close these gaps and make decisions transparent.
Key skills include strong financial modeling (integrated models, scenarios, sensitivities), valuation methods (DCF, multiples, and LBO where applicable), and a solid grasp of capital structure and covenant issues. In terms of tools, Excel and PowerPoint are mandatory, often supplemented by Power BI or similar BI tools, as well as data room workflows and clear documentation of assumptions. Certifications such as the CFA or experience in auditing or tax consulting can be helpful, but what really matters are demonstrable deal and financing results from comparable situations.
FP&A typically focuses on internal performance management: budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and reporting cycles. Corporate finance is more closely tied to transactions and capital markets and delivers bank- or investor-ready models, valuations, and structural proposals for financing and M&A. With these profiles, you therefore primarily gain deal readiness, capital structure logic, and decision-ready documentation for external stakeholders.
Typical deliverables include integrated financial models (P&L/CF/BS) featuring scenarios, sensitivities, and a clear logic behind the assumptions. In addition, there are valuation packages (DCF, multiples, peer set, bridge) as well as materials such as teasers, investor decks, KPI definitions, and a Q&A log. Our experts also provide bank-ready financing packs, covenant models, liquidity plans, and decision-making presentations suitable for the board.
The daily rate for a corporate finance consultant typically ranges from €700 to €1,200 and depends on seniority, deal complexity, and the desired level of responsibility (e.g., lead in the data room, model owner, stakeholder management). For very tight timelines or high levels of interaction with banks/investors, a higher level of seniority may be advisable to reduce the number of iterations. With these profiles, you’ll receive transparent information upfront, allowing you to effectively manage the workload and mix of roles.
