This International Advisory Business has a sizeable and successful team in Manchester (and around the country) offering a wide spectrum of corporate finance advice (buy-side and sell-side) across the region. Deal quality is very high and the range wide – few places offer so much deal advisory scope.
As a M&A Associate Director you will have the opportunity to work with the business' impressive corporate, private equity‑backed and owner‑managed clients. You will advise on the full range of buy and sell side transactions including, but not limited to, mergers and acquisitions, MBOs, PTPs, disposals and more. Deals would best be described as quality mid‑market and above – though fairly frequently even larger.
The role would suit an existing Corporate Finance Manager (ready for promotion) or existing Associate Director, though others with extensive transactional experience would be considered (for example, someone wishing to return to CF Advisory from private equity or industry). You are likely to be a qualified accountant, ACA, CA, ACCA (ICAEW or ICAS) though up-to-date relevant M&A advisory experience from a quality firm of accountants, investment bank or corporate finance house is more important.
You will be given the chance to fully utilise your excellent communication and influencing skills at board level, build your own network of contacts and contribute to the business development activities of the business. Progression can be clearly demonstrated with other members of this team. Bonus potential is considerable and generally recognised as generous compared to many M&A teams.
Candidates must be eligible to work in the UK full time without restriction.
