Assistant Director – Debt Advisory in London

Assistant Director – Debt Advisory in London

London Full-Time On-site
S

SJC Partners are working with a leading advisory firm that is looking to appoint an Assistant Director into its London Debt Advisory team.

The team is one of the dominant names locally in leveraged and private equity-backed transactions, with a strong track record of advising leading PE houses and management teams on complex financing situations. This is a genuinely advisory-led role focused on leverage, rather than a generic corporate coverage position, offering significant exposure to sponsors, lenders and high-quality transactions.

You will work across a broad range of leveraged and Debt Advisory assignments, including:

  • Private equity-backed acquisitions and leveraged transactions
  • Acquisition finance and debt raising
  • Refinancing and recapitalisation
  • Capital structure advice
  • Lender negotiations
  • M&A-related financing

The team is a go-to Debt Advisory adviser for a number of private equity houses, meaning the successful candidate will have regular exposure to sophisticated sponsors and their portfolio companies. You will take responsibility for key elements of transactions, including financial analysis and modelling, developing financing strategies, preparing lender and transaction materials, managing workstreams and supporting senior team members with client relationships and origination.

The client is keen to speak with candidates from Debt Advisory, Leveraged Finance, Investment Banking, Corporate Finance or related advisory backgrounds who have a strong interest in the leveraged market.

You should ideally have:

  • Strong experience across Debt Advisory and/or Leveraged Finance
  • A track record of working on PE-backed transactions
  • Strong financial modelling and analytical skills
  • A good understanding of debt markets and financing structures
  • Experience working with sponsors, management teams and lenders
  • The ability to manage transaction workstreams and junior team members
  • An appetite to develop further towards client-facing and origination responsibilities

This represents an excellent opportunity to join a market-leading Debt Advisory team with a strong reputation in leveraged and PE-backed transactions, providing significant exposure to leading sponsors and high-quality, complex deals in London. The successful candidate will benefit from an established private equity client base, significant transaction exposure and the opportunity to take increasing responsibility across both execution and client development.
