GURUGRAM: Alvarez & Marsal posted a director vacancy for Gurugram on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, seeking applicants with an MBA and seven to eight years of subsequent experience in strategy, due diligence or deals consulting. The opening sits within its Business Transformation Services work and involves healthcare and life sciences assignments for corporate clients and private equity investors.
The firm's India contact page lists its Gurugram office at One Qube, Tower A, Plot 20, Sector 18, Udyog Vihar. The recruitment notice itself gives Gurugram as the location without allocating the vacancy to a particular building, so applicants should use the vacancy page for the role requirements and the office page only as local company background.
The qualifications and work expected
The official director listing asks for an MBA from a tier 1 business school. Its experience requirement is seven to eight years after the MBA with leading consulting organisations, covering strategy and commercial or operational due diligence or deals work. It also seeks experience of performance improvement assignments for large global organisations.
These conditions place the opening in experienced recruitment. Candidates assessing their fit should distinguish the post qualification period from their overall employment history. The stated experience is specifically post MBA, and the description combines analytical work with responsibility for client relationships, project delivery and building a consulting practice.
- Employer: Alvarez & Marsal.
- Advertised title: Director.
- Location: Gurugram, Haryana.
- Posting date: November 4, 2026.
- Qualification: MBA from a tier 1 business school.
- Experience: seven to eight years of relevant consulting work after the MBA.
The Business Transformation Services team works with medium to large companies on growth, profitability and efficiency challenges. For this opening, the employer describes engagements with Indian and global private equity firms and corporate clients in healthcare and life sciences. Hospitals and pharmaceutical businesses are among the client groups identified in the description.
Delivery responsibilities span several project streams
The selected director would turn client problems into structured consulting assignments, develop strategic insights from business and industry information, and assess the factors driving a client's performance. The description calls for data to be translated into clear conclusions that support the wider strategy, rather than stopping at the production of analysis.
Quality control is a defined part of the job. The director would provide the final review of deliverables such as market models, commercial due diligence reports and frameworks for operational change. Applicants therefore need to assess their experience of reviewing and approving work, as well as their ability to prepare their own analysis.
The project management responsibilities cover deadlines, quality, team performance and client satisfaction across multiple streams of work. The employer also expects the director to identify risks early, manage corrective action and build teams with both sector knowledge and consulting skills. These responsibilities sit alongside the technical demands of strategy and diligence assignments.
Client contact would extend to senior executives and investment committee members. The director would maintain relationships beyond a single assignment, hold discussions about longer term client strategy and work across investors, portfolio businesses and healthcare companies. This makes senior stakeholder communication a central requirement in the published description.
Practice development and mentoring are part of the role
The vacancy includes originating work through industry relationships, identifying opportunities and converting proposals into assignments. It also covers the management and development of important accounts. Candidates should read these responsibilities together with the delivery duties: the role combines bringing work into the practice with overseeing its execution.
Internal responsibilities include mentoring directors, senior managers and project teams, developing sector capability and organising knowledge from completed work for reuse. The description also expects the director to represent the firm at industry events and professional forums. Written and spoken communication must work for boardroom audiences as well as internal teams, with the ability to adapt a presentation to different stakeholders.
No salary, application closing date or interview timetable is stated on the vacancy page. Its November 4 posting date does not establish a fixed application deadline or a scheduled walk in interview. Applicants can review the requirements and use the application route attached to the official listing; the article records an advertised vacancy, with selection remaining with the employer.
