Deals Advisory Partner —M&A London
Professional Services Firm | Partner / Partner-Designate | London (hybrid)
Salaried Partner £170–£220k+ | Equity pathway | Confidential
The opportunity
Our client, a growing professional services firm with a strong mid-market presence, is looking to appoint a Deals Advisory Partner in London. This is a genuine growth hire, not a succession seat — the firm is investing in its Deals practice and wants a Partner who can lead from the front: winning work, building a team, and shaping the strategy of the practice.
The lateral market remains the most active route to Partner, and this role suits either an established Partner seeking a more entrepreneurial platform, or a Director/Associate Partner at a Big 4 or top-20 firm who is ready for partnership now rather than waiting in a queue.

- Take responsibility for practice P&L, pricing and quality on your portfolio.
