Quality work , great BD budget, fully invested/supported in your Director & Partner pathways. Your new company Despite its size, my client has the entrepreneurial energy and spirit of a smaller and more agile firm. They are in fact a fully national and growing international practitioner, with circa £400m fee income and climbing, and with their acquisitional phase now completed their focus is on organic growth. In the national Restructuring team, which came to market officially 6 years ago, Partners have usually joined from larger firms and half did so as their first Partnership, so great precedence there for your own journey. In the R&R team projects/appointments are being regularly generated from retail/commercial/business banks, funds and other investment vehicles (eg UKGI) with a "sweet spot" debt size of £10-20 mill (though one major advisory project was a debt book of £3 bill.) The firm has some high profile yet really good fun BD/corporate entertaining events (happy to share more details in conversation!) and a light-touch approach to budget for one-to-one BD, so your commercial judgement on who you meet and how is trusted. The London R&R team are now ready to bring in an AD/Senior Manager who is equally motivated by business and team development. More on this below. Your new role The London team have been "hand-reared" and are in really good form on delivery, but now need someone who is between them and the Partners/IPs to take them to the next development level. That's where you come in. Equally, the Partners want to develop you yourself, and it's pretty much an "open goal" to Director and beyond. While there are currently c.130 cases in the London function, by the time legacy cases and closures have been dealt with, the aim is for around 20, high calibre cases per Partner. Quality over quantity is key, and lower-value cases (eg CVLS & MVLs) are dealt with by the regions, leaving London free to focus on this agenda. A full job spec is of course available, but think of it in time spent terms of around 30% advisory and 70% formal. You'll be writing reports straight away incidentally, including complex, and with recommendations prior to partner review. All Directors take appointments, as will you as soon as you're ready. What you'll need to succeed JIEB (qualified ideal, nearly will also be considered) Most Partners are dual-qualified, so if you have ACCA/ACA as well that's desirable but not essential. UK Insolvency/Restructuring experience ideally to SM level, but also a strong Manager ready for the step up The ambition to become an appointment-taker, with the agility to pivot to advisory when needed While there's a hybrid, honestly they like being in the office together and for the most part they are. So a naturally sociable demeanour plays well there. Equal enjoyment of client, team and project management, with business development What you'll get in return A real-life, real-person interview process. No AI, no HR screening, no case studies etc As mentioned, a really healthy BD budget - your commercial instincts are trusted A fully supported and mentored pathway to Director/IP and Partner (and from many Partners who have made that journey recently, as well as those more established) Top 10/Grade A firm salary package including full suite of benefits centred around wellness and wellbeing, financial security, lifestyle and flexibility, parental support and of course professional support What you need to do now If you're not sure whether this is of interest to you or not, please contact me for a no-pressure conversation where I can learn more about your own ambitions and objectives, and whether this might just be able to leverage them.
