About IndustryPro & Compass Equity Solutions
IndustryPro is a leading M&A advisory firm with more than 30 years of experience helping business owners buy and sell companies. Our professionals have closed billions of dollars in transaction value across a wide range of industries.
Through our consulting division, Compass Equity Solutions, we partner with founder-led businesses generating $5M–$250M in revenue to strengthen strategy, improve operations, and increase profitability. Our consultants are often brought in to solve the same challenges private equity firms address after an acquisition—but we work directly with business owners and leadership teams.
Unlike most firms in the investment banking and consulting industries, we believe high performance and sustainability can go hand in hand. Our professionals typically work 40–45 hours per week, enabling them to produce exceptional work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
Position Overview
Our clients rely on our Strategy Managers to help them lead their companies to greater profitability and operational efficiency. In this role, you will quickly be trained to lead client engagements. Your insights and leadership will directly shape the outcomes of the clients with whom you work. The rest of the Compass team will serve as thought partners and support for you.
A consulting engagement might include:
- Growth strategy and market expansion
- Digital transformation and AI adoption
- Operational improvement and margin expansion
- Business turnarounds and cost optimization
- Organizational design and leadership development
- Preparing companies for private equity investment or sale
Travel requirements are minimal (<10%).
Key Responsibilities
- Work alongside senior consultants to develop and refine Compass Equity’s consulting playbook
- Contribute strategic insight to solve client challenges

- Help implement initiatives designed to increase enterprise value

- Possess strong analytical skills and high emotional intelligence
- Are comfortable working directly with founders and senior executives
- Demonstrate leadership ability and the capacity to operate with increasing autonomy
