We are looking for an experienced Corporate Finance Manager to join a well-established independent advisory firm in Manchester.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and Manage Transactions: Oversee deals typically within the sub £30m million range, taking responsibility for transactions from start to finish.
  • Client Relationship Building: Engage in business development to grow and strengthen client relationships.

Ideal Candidate:

  • Relevant Background: 4-5 years of corporate finance experience.
  • Qualified Accountant: A professional accounting qualification is preferred.
  • Transaction Experience: Experience ideally with buy-side and sell-side transactions in the owner-managed market, although candidates with a sell-side leaning will also be considered.
  • Growth-Oriented: A self-starter who values the autonomy and fast-paced progression potential in a smaller, independent firm.


What We Offer:

  • Hybrid Working Model: Flexible approach, with no set number of days required in the office.
  • Career Development: A clear pathway to partnership for the right candidate, with opportunities for rapid progression in a supportive and collaborative environment.
