  • Develop and empower a high-performing team, coaching colleagues and building delivery capability.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with intermediaries, advisors, and blue-chip clients.
  • Play a central role in firmwide decision-making, shaping the team's direction and ongoing success.

About You

The ideal candidate will have:

  • A strong academic background (ACA, CFA, MBA or equivalent).
  • Significant M&A advisory experience in investment banking, Big 4, private equity, a boutique, or corporate development.
  • A sector background in Consumer, or potentially in Packaging, Chemicals, or Retail.
  • A demonstrable track record in originating and executing successful M&A mandates.
  • Outstanding analytical, strategic, and financial modelling skills.
  • Extensive end-to-end transactional experience.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with confidence and gravitas at all levels.
  • Proven success in building and mentoring high-calibre teams.
  • Ambition, drive, and a results-focused mindset.
  • A personable, credible approach that earns trust from clients and colleagues.

Rewards & Benefits
