Ofri Porat has joined Virtas Partners as a Managing Director in the firm’s Integration & Separations practice.
Virtas Partners is a boutique consulting firm helping clients successfully navigate key transitions, including acquisitions, divestitures, carve-outs, IPOs, accounting investigations and restatements, financial due diligence, performance improvement, and capital placements.
Porat joins the firm’s New York Metro office as Virtas continues to expand its Integration and Separations practice nationwide. Specifically, he will be tasked with building out integration and separation solutions specific to the firm’s Private Equity clients. He holds over 20 years of success helping clients with buy-side and sell-side transactions. He has led multiple projects where he oversaw the IMO, functional integration planning and synergy realization across all functional areas. Porat also has deep experience and expertise in M&A and sell-side due diligence, divestiture/separation planning, and all Office of the CFO disciplines. He started his career at GE and then moved to PwC where over 10 years he provided his clients with the methodology, approach and tools necessary to execute detailed merger-integration and buy-side and sell-side carve-out transactions across the deal continuum. After PwC, Ofri served as a Managing Director at FTI Consulting and Accordion Partners. In both companies he was a leader in the Merger Integration & Carve-out practices, responsible for go-to-market strategy, product development, recruiting and engagement delivery. Most recently Ofri served as an Associate Partner with A.T. Kearney in their Transactions practice where he led the revamp of their M&A Solution program for private equity clients and corporates.
“It is a strategic priority for the firm to build integration and separation offerings specific to private equity,” said CEO Neal McNamara. “Bringing on Ofri represents another strategic investment we are making, not only to this practice area, but more broadly in our ability to serve the private equity market.”
