Investment Banking Associate - Technology

I am currently partnering with a leading global investment bank that is looking to hire an Associate into its highly regarded Technology M&A team in London.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a strong investment banking professional to join a market-leading platform advising on high-profile transactions across the technology sector. The team works with a broad range of public and private technology companies, financial sponsors, founder-led businesses, and strategic acquirers across Europe and globally.

As an Associate, you will be a key member of the deal team, taking ownership of core execution work streams while working closely with senior bankers on complex M&A transactions. This role offers excellent exposure to major clients, cross-border deal activity, and some of the most active areas of the technology market.

The role will involve:

Managing key aspects of live M&A transactions, including sell-side, buy-side, carve-out, take-private, and strategic advisory mandates.

Preparing financial models, valuation analysis, transaction materials, management presentations, board materials, and client pitch books.

Conducting company and sector research across software, internet, fintech, digital infrastructure, IT services, cybersecurity, data, and other technology subsectors.

Coordinating with clients, investors, legal advisers, accountants, consultants, and internal product teams throughout transaction processes.

Supporting senior bankers with origination initiatives, client coverage, market updates, and strategic pitches.

Managing Analysts and junior team members, reviewing work streams, and helping drive high standards across execution.

The ideal candidate will have:

Investment banking, M&A advisory, corporate finance, or transaction services experience, ideally at Analyst 3 or Associate level.

Strong technical skills across financial modelling, valuation, accounting, and transaction execution.

Experience in technology M&A or a demonstrable interest in the technology sector.

Excellent attention to detail, communication skills, and the ability to manage multiple work streams in a demanding environment.

The confidence to work with senior stakeholders and contribute meaningfully to client discussions.

A proactive, commercial mindset and the ability to operate effectively within a fast-paced global banking platform.

Why this opportunity stands out:

This is a chance to join one of the most recognised names in global investment banking and become part of a high-performing Technology M&A team with a strong pipeline of transactions.

The successful candidate will benefit from exposure to landmark deals, international clients, and best-in-class training and development. The role offers a strong platform for career progression, with the opportunity to build deep sector expertise and work alongside highly experienced senior bankers.
