Our Investment Banking Division

Our Investment Banking Division combines deep sector expertise with global capital markets access, supported by research, sales and distribution capabilities across Europe, North America and Asia. The platform includes more than 55 investment banking professionals and dedicated sector teams covering Energy Services, Shipping, Technologies, Natural Resources and Industrials.

Fearnley's Natural Resources franchise advises companies and investors across oil & gas, metals, mining, steel, critical minerals and broader resource sectors. We work with corporates, financial sponsors and institutional investors on strategic M&A, debt financing and equity capital raising transactions globally.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated Associate or Vice President to join our London-based Natural Resources Investment Banking team.

The successful candidate will become a core member of a fast-growing franchise and play an active role in originating and executing transactions across the global metals and mining sector. The position offers significant client exposure, responsibility from day one and the opportunity to work closely with senior bankers across both advisory and capital markets mandates.

Key Responsibilities

Transaction Execution

  • Lead day-to-day execution of M&A, strategic advisory, debt financing and equity capital markets transactions.
  • Build and review complex financial models, valuation analyses and transaction materials.
  • Prepare marketing documents, information memoranda, management presentations and board materials.
  • Manage due diligence processes and coordinate advisors, clients and counterparties.
  • Take ownership of project management workstreams and transaction timetables.

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.
