Executive Search Specialist, recruiting the best talent globally within Professional Services
An ambitious, high-performing advisory firm with a strong footprint in the UK mid-market is seeking a Corporate Finance Director to join its expanding London team. With a healthy pipeline, an entrepreneurial culture, and serious growth plans, this is an exceptional opportunity for a driven individual to help lead deals, mentor rising stars, and shape the future of the business.
The Opportunity
This firm is anything but corporate. It's agile, fiercely independent, and deeply trusted by a loyal client base of entrepreneurs, investors, and fast-growth businesses. The team punches well above its weight in terms of deal volume and quality, advising on transactions across a range of sectors including tech, healthcare, consumer, and business services.
With strong regional roots and a growing London presence, they’re looking for someone who’s ready to take a seat at the table and make a genuine impact.
You’ll be responsible for:
* Leading mid-market M&A transactions (£10m–£150m EV) from origination through to completion
* Managing and mentoring a team of talented associates and managers
* Building and nurturing client relationships at founder and board level
* Supporting the strategic direction and growth of the London office
* Playing a pivotal role in business development and deal origination
What’s in it for you?
* A clear path to Partner in a refreshingly unpolitical environment
* Equity upside and generous performance-related bonuses
* The chance to join a firm that’s small enough to be nimble but large enough to land headline-grabbing deals
* Hybrid working and a grown-up approach to flexibility
You’ll likely be:
* ACA-qualified (or equivalent), with 8+ years' experience in M&A
* A seasoned dealmaker with a strong track record of leading transactions
* Commercially sharp, relationship-driven, and able to win trust quickly
* Passionate about the mid-market and entrepreneurial clients
* Excited by the idea of building something – not just maintaining it
