An established and rapidly growing M&A advisory platform is seeking a high-performing Assistant Director to join its Technology, Media & Telecoms (TMT) Lead Advisory team. The business delivers boutique-style sector expertise within the structure and reach of a global platform, advising entrepreneurs, corporates, and private equity clients across the full spectrum of M&A activity.
This team is recognised for delivering landmark transactions across sub-sectors such as Software, Tech-enabled Services, Media, Marketing & Communications, IT Managed Services, and Telecoms. Many transactions are international in nature, and the group is closely aligned with flagship sector events including the UK Technology Fast 50 and Entrepreneur’s Summit.
Key Responsibilities:
* Work on a variety of sell-side and buy-side transactions, often involving high-growth or founder-led businesses.
* Take ownership of key transaction workstreams: financial modelling, valuation (DCF, LBO), industry research, and preparation of client materials.
* Develop information memoranda, executive summaries, and management presentations through collaborative workshops with senior client stakeholders.
* Manage elements of deal execution including process coordination, client communications, and deliverable preparation.
* Support business development efforts through market mapping, pitch preparation, and participation in public and private events.
* Lead and mentor junior colleagues within a collaborative and inclusive team culture.
Key Skills & Experience:
* Strong transaction experience, ideally in the UK mid-market-gained in investment banking, Big 4 lead advisory, corporate finance boutiques, or similar.
* Prior exposure to the TMT sector is advantageous but not essential-professionals from other sectors with a genuine interest in TMT are encouraged to apply.
* Strong technical skills including detailed financial/commercial analysis and modelling (Excel, PowerPoint).
* Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to articulate complex findings clearly and confidently.
* Strong organisational skills, with the ability to work to tight deadlines across multiple projects.
* Proven ability to contribute to business development and client relationship efforts.
Why Consider This Role?
* Join a team with a proven track record of 135+ transactions valued at over £12bn in the last five years.
* Gain immediate exposure to dynamic clients shaping the future of the TMT landscape.
* Work in an agile, meritocratic environment that balances boutique-style sector depth with access to a global network and infrastructure.
* Benefit from a highly structured training and appraisal framework, with clear progression pathways and ongoing support for personal development.
* Contribute to high-profile sector initiatives and thought leadership platforms.
