Are you an experienced Corporate Finance professional looking for an exciting and varied role within an award-winning local team?

You will further your experience in the preparation and execution of the sale and acquisition of businesses, in all forms that may take, for example, trade sale, private equity investment, debt funded management buy-out or a sale to an employee ownership trust.

- Support with pitch meetings with potential new clients
- Provide guidance and support to more junior team members
Ideally, you will be ACA/ACCA/CA and be naturally inquisitive with the ability to see beyond the numbers. You will be articulate, sociable and good with people and preferably have some management experience. It is essential that you have previous experience of corporate finance work and be looking to further your career in the field.
In return, a competitive salary and benefits package is on offer, along with training and development opportunities for all employees. Benefits will include pension, 25 days annual leave + bank holidays, Agile Working, Life Assurance and much more!
