Corporate Finance Partner - #2193802

Corporate Finance Partner

£180,000 to £250,000 base + profit participation

Be the Partner who opens up the next source of mandates for an established Manchester M&A team.

You might be the first call for owners in a particular sector. You might know the sponsors looking for their next platform investment, or the corporates quietly looking to buy. If those relationships already bring you into deals early, this is a chance to build more business around them with an experienced Manchester team and national support behind you.

What you could build

The firm already has strong relationships across the North West. It’s looking for a Partner who can extend that reach through a sector, a client network or a source of referrals where they have a clear track record.

You’ll help decide where to focus, lead the pitches and stay close to the transactions you win. The core work is lower mid-market M&A, broadly £7m to £50m enterprise value. There’s scope to grow the team around the work you develop as the pipeline builds.

What you can put behind your relationships

• An experienced Manchester deal team with the capacity to help deliver the mandates you bring in.
• Dedicated private equity coverage to help you identify relevant investors and open up conversations across the national network.
• Research, origination and marketing support to develop a sector focus, map a market or build a stronger case for a pitch.
• National sector specialists and colleagues across Debt Advisory and Restructuring who can bring you into their opportunities and add expertise to yours.

Why make the move?

You’ll have room to do more of the work you’re already known for and to pursue mandates that benefit from a wider team behind them. You’ll still lead the client relationship, the pitch and the transaction. The Partner model recognises personal origination alongside shared mandates, referrals and contribution to the wider firm.

Who it will suit

An established Corporate Finance Partner or a Senior Director with clear Partner-level origination. You’ll have credible North West relationships, a record of leading lower mid-market deals and examples of work you personally brought in. You’ll be able to explain which clients and introducers call you today, what that has turned into and where you could take it next.
