Corporate Finance Partner
£150-£200k plus bonus and wider Partner package
Edinburgh or Glasgow, with flexibility across Scotland
Build a Scottish Corporate Finance business, without starting from zero.
The client base, internal referrals and investment are already there. What is missing is the senior M&A adviser who can turn that opportunity into a leading Scottish team.
This sits within a growing, PE-backed national accountancy and advisory group. A substantial Scottish footprint and extensive SME client base provide the regional opportunity, while an established national Deal Advisory business provides the specialist support.
This Partner will lead the Scottish business. Further investment is planned around them, including senior execution capacity, origination support and internal talent moving into Corporate Finance.
The role
- Lead and shape the Corporate Finance offering across Scotland
- Convert opportunities from an established client and referral network
- Originate and lead sales, acquisitions, MBOs, PE investments and fundraising mandates
- Advise founders, management teams, corporates and investors
- Recruit and develop a high-quality Scottish team
- Work closely with the wider national Deal Advisory business
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who this could suit
You may already be an established Corporate Finance Partner looking for greater freedom, investment and influence.
Equally, you could be a successful Director or Managing Director with the track record and market credibility to make a compelling first Partner move.
You will bring proper end-to-end M&A experience, strong relationships across Scotland and the credibility to win the confidence of business owners and advisers.
A portable book would be valuable, but you will not be expected to manufacture the entire pipeline alone. The client base, internal relationships and wider advisory infrastructure are already in place.

Why it is worth considering
- The lead role in building a Scottish Corporate Finance business
- An existing regional platform with clear internal demand
- Investment in a wider team around you
- National research, origination and execution support
- Significant influence over the strategy, team and culture
- The backing of an ambitious, PE-backed accountancy and advisory group
This is a chance to take everything you have built in the Scottish market and put it behind something you can genuinely shape.
