Associate Director - M&A Advisory
Birmingham | Hybrid working
High-growth advisory firm | Lower/Mid-market focus | Real autonomy
Looking for more than just another deal to process?
My client is an ambitious corporate finance advisory firm working with exceptional founder-led and private equity-backed businesses across the UK and internationally. They are growing growing fast - and they are hiring an Associate Director in Birmingham to play a key role in their next phase.
This isn't a box-ticking, hierarchy-heavy environment. It's a chance to genuinely lead deals, shape strategy, and work alongside high-performing colleagues who back your judgement, not second-guess it.
You'll be advising clients directly - often founders and boards - on strategic transactions, working end-to-end on deals, and helping to build something truly exciting as they scale.
What you'll be doing:
Taking the lead on M&A transactions from pitch to completion
Managing clients, investors, and stakeholders with confidence
Overseeing valuation, structuring, negotiation and execution
Supporting and developing junior team members
Playing a key role in new business, firm growth and internal best practice
What they are looking for:
Strong M&A experience in the mid-market space (£10m-£100m typical deal size)
Background in a boutique, Big 4 or high-quality mid-tier CF team
Proven ability to manage deals and build trusted client relationships
Commercial instinct, clear thinking and a collaborative mindset
Ambition to grow in a firm where your voice is heard and your impact is felt
What you'll get:
Real autonomy - no red tape, no layers of approval
Top-tier clients - founder-led businesses, PE funds, scale-ups
Supportive culture - high-performance, no egos
Momentum - join during a high-growth phase with plenty of opportunity
Hybrid working and a competitive package - designed around trust and output
They are not just building a business - they are building a team of trusted advisors, dealmakers and long-term partners to the clients they serve.
If you're ready for your next big step and want to do great work without the corporate drag, I would love to hear from you.
