London | Hybrid | Leading Corporate Finance & Management Advisory Firm

If you want to sit at the centre of complex transactions, influence senior decision-making, and work on technically demanding financial modelling assignments, this role offers a genuine step forward.

You’ll be joining a globally recognised, independent management advisory firm, led and owned by its senior professionals, with a strong international footprint. The business partners closely with private equity houses, CFOs and management teams across M&A, exits, value creation and portfolio activity - providing rigorous financial modelling, commercial clarity and deal certainty at critical moments.

This opportunity sits within a growing specialist financial modelling capability and offers meaningful responsibility, senior exposure and the chance to help shape a best-in-class modelling function.

Why this move stands out

• Work directly with PE sponsors and C-suite executives on high-value transactions
• Lead complex financial modelling workstreams rather than supporting at arm’s length
• Exposure across M&A, roll-ups, divestments, capital structures and incentives
• Opportunity to help build and shape a specialist financial modelling division
• Small, senior-led teams with genuine ownership and pace
• Faster progression and broader influence than large advisory or banking platforms

Your key focus areas

• Designing, building and reviewing advanced financial models, including:
• LBOs, cap tables, dilution and waterfalls
• Funds flow and transaction mechanics
• Integrated M&A roll-ups and divestiture scenarios
• Supporting equity plans, management incentives, strategic planning and value-creation modelling
• Leading end-to-end modelling delivery across live transactions and PE portfolio initiatives
• Acting as a key contact for PE sponsors and senior portfolio executives
• Presenting modelling outputs clearly to inform commercial and investment decisions
• Working closely with deal teams to integrate modelling insight into wider transaction advisory
• Over time, contributing to the development of modelling standards, capability and team growth

What you’ll bring

• ACA / ACCA / CFA qualified (or equivalent), or strong transaction-led finance background
• 4+ years’ experience in financial modelling within Investment Banking, Transaction Services, Private Equity, Corporate Development or specialist modelling teams
• Deep technical understanding of private equity mechanics and deal structures
• Exceptional financial modelling capability with strong attention to detail
• Confidence presenting technical concepts to senior, non-technical stakeholders
• Experience managing multiple workstreams and, ideally, mentoring junior team members
• A commercial, analytical mindset with the ability to design solutions to client needs

What’s in it for you

• High visibility across PE funds and senior management teams
• Clear pathway into future leadership
• Opportunity to help shape a new specialist capability within the firm
• A balanced role combining modelling excellence, client engagement and team development
• Competitive salary and market leading bonus potential
