Manager Transaction Services

Job description

An independent London firm is adding a Manager to its Transaction Services team. They're open to either an Assistant Manager ready for promotion or an existing Manager looking to gain more responsibility and exposure.

The team is well established but at a pivotal point of growth, so you'd be joining something with real momentum behind it. There's room to shape how it develops rather than slotting into a machine that's already fixed.

The Role

• Manage buy-side and sell-side financial due diligence engagements for private equity and corporate clients across the mid-market
• Attend and support pitches alongside the senior team
• Develop private equity and adviser network to support professional growth and contribute to origination efforts
• Manage and mentor junior team, reviewing workstreams and developing junior talent

About you

• ACA or equivalent with at least 18 months' dedicated FDD experience gained within a similar TS team
• Able to own a workstream and draft report sections with light supervision
• A natural communicator with a natural ability to build relationships with clients and internal teams

The current team structure and growth strategy provides genuine progression opportunities within an established team and platform.

On culture, this is a long way from the typical transaction working environment with long hours and inflexibility. The partner group is young and the firm is independent and intends to stay that way, so decisions are made for the long term rather than to hit a quarterly number for an investor. Retention is unusually good, with a number of partners having been there since they qualified. The is generalist but has strengths in particular sectors, so you'd have the opportunity build genuine depth in a defined area rather than taking whatever lands.
