Execute transactions end-to-end by preparing marketing materials, reviewing financial models, coordinating due diligence, and negotiating documentation.

  • Sector coverage expertise, for example financial institutions, utilities, or healthcare, within a capital markets context
  • Experience in an established banking or advisory platform, with the ability to transition into a more senior, practice-leading role
  • A track record of building or scaling a business line or desk from an earlier stage
  • A team-oriented style suited to a smaller, collaborative platform without a large existing peer network to lean on
  • M&A experience
