About the Role
I'm working exclusively with a leading global advisory firm that is investing heavily in its UK restructuring practice. This is an exciting opportunity to join a market leading restructuring team at a pivotal point in its growth. Due to continued demand and a strong pipeline of mandates, they are looking to appoint an experienced Director to join an expanding team that is already recognised as a leader in its field. This is a rare chance to step into a high profile role, work on complex and often headline situations, and help shape the next phase of a growing business.
Responsibilities
You will advise lenders, investors, boards and management teams on financially stressed and underperforming businesses. Depending on your background, you will join either the creditor side or the debtor side of the practice, working on situations such as:
- Lender advisory, independent business reviews and monitoring
- Company side restructuring, turnaround and contingency planning
- Refinancing, restructuring plans, CVAs and consensual solutions
- Formal insolvency appointments and advisory mandates
- Stakeholder negotiations across lenders, sponsors, management and other parties

It searches the market for you

- High quality, varied work. Expect complex, high value mandates across sectors, working alongside highly regarded colleagues.

- Competitive package. [Compensation and benefits to be added]

- A professional accountancy qualification (ACA, ACCA or equivalent) ideally
