Bring Your Sector. Build Something Bigger.

This is an opportunity for a well-connected corporate finance professional to bring genuine sector expertise to a growing, internationally connected advisory platform. You’ll have the scope to develop your market, originate significant opportunities and turn senior relationships into value across M&A and the wider business.

Package / Benefits

  • Exceptional senior-level compensation package

  • Reward reflecting individual and wider commercial contribution

  • Scope for an established MD or high-performing Director ready to step up

  • National and increasingly international platform

  • Autonomy to shape sector coverage around your strongest relationships

Why This Business

This is an established advisory business investing in the continued growth of its corporate finance capability across the UK and internationally.

Its approach is sector-led rather than constrained by regional boundaries. Senior specialists collaborate across locations, combining deep industry knowledge with local relationships and wider advisory expertise.

The business is particularly interested in strengthening areas including TMT and Business Services, while remaining open to specialists from other sectors who can bring credible new routes to market.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Develop a sector-led corporate finance proposition built around your expertise, network and market credibility.

  • Originate high-value M&A and broader advisory opportunities through senior corporate and investor relationships.

  • Lead transactions from opportunity creation through execution, providing senior-level sector insight throughout.

  • Collaborate across UK and international teams to convert relationships into opportunities across the wider advisory platform.

What You’ll Bring

  • Significant corporate finance experience at Director, Managing Director or equivalent level.

  • Deep expertise and an established senior network within a defined industry sector.

  • A proven ability to originate meaningful opportunities and build long-term commercial relationships.

  • The commercial judgement to identify client needs beyond M&A and introduce complementary advisory capabilities.

Who This Suits

You’re a commercially minded corporate finance professional whose value extends beyond executing transactions. You know your sector, have genuine relationships within it and can create opportunities through those connections.

You may already be an established MD looking for greater scope, or a successful Director with the network and commercial track record to make the step up. Either way, you’re looking for a platform where sector expertise is valued and you can have visible influence on future growth.
