Corporate Finance Manager

NXTGEN is proud to be working exclusively with a brilliant and highly regarded accountancy firm that is going through a seriously exciting period of growth. Having already exceeded expectations when scaling other service lines, they are now looking to build a Corporate Finance offering from the top down, mirroring the hugely successful journey they've taken with their Audit function.

This is a truly unique opportunity to join an established and respected firm brand, stepping in as the number one hire within Corporate Finance, with the autonomy to shape the service, build a team in your own way, and make a lasting impact on the Suffolk market, all while being fully supported by experienced Directors and Partners who have successfully done this themselves.

The firm is genuinely open minded on level, meaning this role can be tailored to suit an ambitious and experienced Assistant Manager ready to step up, or a Manager looking for something different, with a clear and exciting pathway through to Director and Partner.

The Role:

• Act as a key figure in establishing and growing the firm's Corporate Finance offering across Suffolk
• Lead on a range of Corporate Finance projects, tailored to your experience (including M&A, due diligence, valuations, fundraising, and strategic advisory)
• Build strong relationships with existing clients and identify opportunities to add value through Corporate Finance services
• Work closely with Partners and Directors to shape strategy, proposition, and go-to-market approach
• Over time, recruit, develop, and lead a high-performing Corporate Finance team
• Play a visible role in the wider leadership team, contributing to the firm's continued growth and success

What they're looking for:

• Experience within Corporate Finance at Assistant Manager or Manager level (or equivalent)
• Strong commercial awareness and the ability to build trusted relationships with clients
• Ambition to grow a service line and leave a genuine legacy within a firm
• Excellent communication skills and confidence working directly with senior stakeholders
• ACA / ACCA qualified (or equivalent) preferred, but experience is key

Why this opportunity stands out:

• A rare chance to build a Corporate Finance team from scratch within an established firm
• Clear, supported pathway to Director and Partner
• Flexibility to shape the role around your strengths and interests
• Supportive, forward-thinking leadership team whose employees and clients are at the heart of what they do
• An opportunity you simply don't see come to market very often

If you're looking for something genuinely different, where you can make an impact, build something meaningful, and accelerate your career, this is one you shouldn't miss.
