Corporate Finance Manager - International Firm

SJC Partners are currently working with a highly regarded international M&A firm who are looking to recruit a Corporate Finance Manager for their Manchester office as part of their growth plans.  As an M&A Manager you would be responsible for the entire process – from generating the lead, the first pitch, all transactional documentation until final execution. On a daily basis, you will be a Business Developer, a Project Manager of the transaction and a deal leader at the same time. Typically, you would work on a wide range of deals (Buy and sell side, MBO’s, MBI’s, Buy and Builds and Growth capital) in the enterprise value range of £5m - £50m (across all sectors) though on occasion can work on deals bigger than this (£100m+).  The successful individual would join a very successful and award-winning team locally and work closely with the 3 Partners who have a strong track record with local Private Equity houses.   Given the team is around 15 FTE’s, you will have greater visibility/responsibility on deals than you would perhaps in a larger firm. They have exciting plans for the business and see this hire as key to their future expansion in the North-West and UK market.  Applicants should possess a minimum of 2 years deals years experience (applications are welcome from due diligence professionals looking to move into execution) and crucially you will be passionate about business development and have an existing network of contacts you want to develop and leverage from further.   This role is a highly attractive one as it offers an individual huge variety in terms of deal exposure combined with more responsibility, ownership and visibility than that often offered in a larger firm.
