Insolvency Manager

Interpath is an international and fast-growing advisory business with deep expertise in a broad range of specialisms spanning deals, advisory and restructuring capabilities. We deliver tangible results for global businesses, their investors, and stakeholders when complex problems arise, and critical decisions need to be made. Interpath is agile, independent, and conflict-free, and our passion for doing what’s right, every time, sets us apart.

Our diverse teams provide specialist technical knowledge combined with deep sector experience across our service line specialisms. Since our foundation in 2021, Interpath has grown rapidly, and we now have a presence across the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, BVI, Cayman Islands, Bermuda, Barbados, and Hong Kong. By 2030 we aim to be one of the world’s leading advisory firms with a truly global footprint.

The City and International Restructuring team in London (CII) are looking for a Manager to join their team. Joining Interpath Advisory means joining a dynamic and talented team of exceptional colleagues who bring innovative thoughts and a natural curiosity to the work they do each day. With no two days the same, we are looking for people who are willing to embrace a challenge and support businesses through adversity and growth. No one type of person succeeds at Interpath Advisory; a diverse business requires a range of personalities and perspectives, strong teamwork and a passion for client success.

We are looking for an individual to work alongside colleagues in the CII team which is responsible for providing a diverse range of restructuring advisory, formal insolvency and contingency planning advice in large, complex situations often covering multi-jurisdictional territories. The team delivers a blend of stakeholder advisory work, typically linked to providing advice around distressed businesses and supporting restructuring via the use of insolvency procedures as well as undertaking formal insolvency work for large and complex institutions. The team is aligned to a broad range of sectors and specialisms and boasts significant experience spanning multiple areas and situations, where we welcome sector specialisms in candidates. Applicants should expect to work across all sectors as situations and the client’s needs demand. Where possible, assignments will be resourced to suit an individual’s base location, but the nature and unpredictability of our work will mean that some travel (and possible international working) will be required.

The role will involve working across a range of assignment types, as highlighted above, and applicants should be ready to work in dynamic, flexible and fast-moving environments.

• Working in engagement teams of typically 3 to 6 people, supporting senior team members across a diverse range of Insolvency and Restructuring advisory engagements, including contingency planning, options analysis, cash reviews and Restructuring Plans;
• Appraise challenging and fast developing situations to develop innovative solutions and assess options for businesses and their stakeholders, which in certain instances may involve documenting the merits underpinning the relevant formal insolvency options available;
• Undertaking detailed analysis to present robust advice to client teams;
• Manage engagements and projects to scope, time, quality and budget complying with Interpath engagement management practices;
• Build strong, trusted adviser relationships with senior management and mid-level executives and other key stakeholders in engagements (including lawyers and contacts at banks and other lenders);
• On relevant assignments, overseeing work as the main point of contact with the client, reporting back to engagement leaders and other senior Interpath staff;
• Involvement in new product development and business development activities;
• Development of junior staff on assignments.

• Qualified Chartered Accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CPA)
• Strong corporate insolvency and restructuring advisory experience is essential.
• Demonstrable experience in managing own work streams within the Restructuring and Insolvency space;
• Strong commercial and business acumen;
• Ability to work innovatively with a track record of being able to ‘self-start’ whilst also capable of effective delegation to teams of junior colleagues;
• Desire to build wide insolvency skillsets and develop knowledge of all Restructuring offerings;
• Ability to communicate well across a range of operational and financial staff at all levels. This is also often in challenging circumstances given the financial positions of the organisations we typically work with;
• Willingness to embrace work across all sectors and potentially undertake some travel;
• A positive team influence and achievements beyond the realms of project work including development and mentoring of junior team members;
• Drive and enthusiasm.

At Interpath, our people lie at the heart of our business. That's why we provide employees with a competitive and comprehensive reward package including compelling salaries and a range of core and optional benefits.
