Genuine growth opportunity in major national firm. Fully resourced model. Your new company Our client is a major national and international accounting/ advisory firm who pride themselves on a progressive approach and have become a major player in tech-enabled provision of advisory, outsourcing and compliance services globally. One of the fastest growing advisory firms in the UK, initial growth has been via acquisitions, and the firm is now transitioning to focus on organic growth and expansion. As part of this strategy the advisory service-lines are receiving extra investment and in consequence a leadership role has arisen for valuations. Your new role Working in a national capacity, this is a rare chance to grow your own profile while backed by an established brand. Valuation Advisory has not yet achieved anything like its full potential in the firm, which has a great bedrock of internal referrals as well as brand that will sell well in the mid-tier. Partners envisage this role to be a blend of senior technical resource for their already-busy pipeline, but equally a leadership role which can grow the function and team to capture more market share. Valuations has a competitive blend of clients from mid-tier law firms through to circa £50m OMBs, who spend their own money and look for VFM while not sacrificing quality. On the legal/contentious side, this is largely handled by the Forensic team but your expertise may be drawn on from time to time in helping them build their case. Roughly divided, the valuations practice has three broad categories, namely Private Equity (MIPs, Portfolio valuation, PPAs, ongoing post-transaction advisory etc, Corporate and Legal. Current work sees an especial lean towards valuing sweet equity, MIPs, PPAs and so on, but you'll be a major part of the strategy around what shape the function takes going forward. Supported by a team of 2-3 in valuation advisory/non-contentious valuations, plus further support when needed from the valuation-experienced forensics team, you'll be part of a national P&L and will be able to follow your commercial instincts building business without tripping over territorialism or internal politics. Partnership is an "open goal" in this role - completely meritocratic and not just assessed on fees generated. I can supply more details on enquiry. What you'll need to succeed A current, UK-based track record in Valuation Advisory from a professional services firm ACA/CFA or equivalent qualified Currently a really experienced Senior Manager/Associate Director, ready for 1st promotion, or an existing Director looking to come out from under the shadow of an overly-dominant brand to really shine in your own right in the market. An enjoyment of the true bandwidth of valuation matters and industries The commerciality and drive to develop this function, fully supported, into a go-to mid-tier brand for Valuation Advisory A genuine track to Partnership with nobody competing for the same role What you'll get in return A wide-ranging core and flexible benefits package centred around financial, wellbeing and health Discretionary bonus Genuine autonomy in how you develop the business Mentorship and support on your journey to Partner Work-life balance - this is a people-first firm What you need to do now If you're interested in this role, click 'apply now' to forward an up-to-date copy of your CV, or call us now.
