  • Delivering financial due diligence assignments.
  • Identifying acquisition targets, investors and buyers through detailed market research.
  • Building strong relationships with clients, advisers and key stakeholders.
  • Supporting clients with strategic growth, succession and exit planning.


About You

You'll be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) with UK experience and a genuine interest in Corporate Finance.


You'll ideally have:

  • Experience within Corporate Finance, Transaction Services, Deal Advisory or M&A; or
  • An ACA qualification gained in Practice, operating at Manager level or above with commercial transaction exposure; or
  • An ACCA or CIMA qualification gained in industry, with experience in commercial finance, strategic finance, business partnering, financial modelling or transaction-related projects.
  • Strong analytical and financial modelling skills.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.
  • The confidence to work directly with business owners, investors and senior decision-makers.
  • A full UK driving licence.


What's on Offer

  • £55,000 basic salary.
  • Uncapped performance bonus (average first-year earnings circa £85,000).
  • Exposure to high-profile and mid-market transactions.
  • Early client responsibility and meaningful deal involvement.
  • Structured mentoring from experienced Corporate Finance professionals.
  • Clear progression within a growing and ambitious advisory firm.
  • Hybrid working and an excellent benefits package.
