A fast-growing London boutique investment bank is looking to appoint an M&A Director as it continues to build its lower mid-market advisory business.
The firm advises founders and shareholders of businesses typically valued between £10m and £250m
, providing sell-side M&A, growth capital and strategic transaction advice.
This is a senior client-facing role with responsibility across origination, transaction leadership and team development
.
- Originate new sell-side and capital-raising mandates
- Develop relationships with founders, shareholders, PE investors and intermediaries
- Lead transactions from initial engagement through valuation, preparation, buyer/investor approach, due diligence, negotiation and completion
- Take primary ownership of senior client relationships
- Manage and develop Associates and Analysts
- Help develop sector coverage and the firm's wider origination strategy
- Work directly with the Managing Directors on the continued growth of the advisory platform
We are interested in candidates currently operating at VP, Director or equivalent level within:
- Investment banking
- M&A / Corporate Finance boutiques
- Big Four or Top 10 Corporate Finance
- Independent advisory firms/ Financial Services
You should have strong end-to-end transaction experience and be comfortable leading founders through a sale process.
A demonstrable ability to originate work, develop relationships or generate fees is important. This is not an execution-only position.
Sector background is flexible, although experience advising founder-owned, entrepreneurial or PE-backed businesses would be particularly relevant.
Package£130,000-£160,000 basic
Plus a significant performance and deal-linked bonus
, with the economics designed to reward successful origination and completed transactions.
For the right individual there is scope for considerably greater responsibility as the business continues to scale from their City of London offices
