Who you work with

Three sides of the table

Before advising on a sale, Niki Donadio made one of his own. Before reading a group's P&L, he answered for one.

Ten years in corporate development and end-to-end M&A — origination and screening through to closing and the integration that follows — and, before that, the two seats that are hardest to fake: the operator's and the owner's.

The path

  1. AutoMotion

    Advisory boutique

    Automotive strategy, M&A followed end to end, and applied AI. One mandate at a time, led personally, with specialists brought in for it.

  2. EY

    Manager, Strategy & Corporate Finance — Industrial, Mobility & Technology

    Owner of the M&A process end to end: origination, screening, valuation and the transaction business cases investment committees and boards decide on. Diligence coordinated across internal teams and external advisors, working as an extension of corporate development.

  3. Olympiabet

    CEO and co-founder — Italy and DACH

    Founded it, took it from launch to scale across two markets, and sold it. The whole cycle, from the idea to the exit — which is the part most advisors have only read about.

  4. Autocicognara

    CSO and COO — multi-brand industrial retail group

    Strategy and daily operations with direct P&L responsibility across a multi-site organisation: network development, positioning, cost structure and governance.

  5. Be Management Consulting

    Senior Consultant

    Enterprise transformation, PMO setup and governance design in large organisations.

  6. PwC

    Risk Assurance

    Financial audit and transaction due diligence for industrial clients.
