Corporate / M&A Associate | London | 3+ PQE
A rare opportunity to join a global firm where London isn't a regional outpost, it's the hub.
This team drives high-value, complex M&A and private equity transactions across the US, Europe and the Middle East from their London office. The work is genuinely cross-border, the deals are market-leading, and the culture is collaborative without the rigid hierarchy you find at comparable platforms.
The role
You'll work across a broad range of private M&A transactions, with exposure to cross-border and multi-jurisdictional work from day one. The firm handles the full deal lifecycle, from structuring through to execution; and associates here get meaningful responsibility early.
What they're looking for
* 3+ PQE gained at a leading UK, US or international firm
* Solid transactional experience in high-value private M&A
* Strong academics and sharp commercial instincts
* Any exposure to public M&A, energy sector transactions, or alternative investors (hedge funds, PE sponsors) is advantageous, but the fundamentals matter most
What sets this firm apart
* London office is the international transactional hub, not a satellite
* Genuinely integrated, cross-border deal flow across three major markets
* Entrepreneurial, non-siloed culture that is unusual at this level
* Strong track record of developing associates into long-term practitioners
In short
If you're a corporate associate doing good work but not getting the cross-border exposure or deal quality your platform promised, this is worth a conversation.
