- 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).
- 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.
