The Role

We are seeking an experienced Vice President / Manager or Director level individual to join our London-based team. This is a unique opportunity for ambitious M&A professionals with over 5 years of experience to play a pivotal role in the growth of our firm. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in at least one of our focus sectors and be excited by the prospect of working in an entrepreneurial, start-up environment.

As Vice President or Director, you will be instrumental in leading deal execution, expanding our network within our focus sectors, and driving business origination. You will work closely with entrepreneurs and founders, providing high-quality advisory services while contributing to the development of Tura Advisory’s reputation as a trusted partner.

Key Responsibilities

• Deal Execution: Lead and manage all aspects of M&A transactions, including financial analysis, preparation of marketing materials (e.g., information memoranda), buyer outreach, negotiation support, and project management.
• Business Development & Origination: Build relationships with entrepreneurs, founders, and key industry stakeholders in IT Services, Marketing, and Professional Services sectors to identify new opportunities. Develop your own pipeline of sell-side mandates over time.
• Client Management: Act as a trusted advisor to clients throughout the transaction process, ensuring their needs are met with professionalism and attention to detail.
• Collaboration & Leadership: Work closely with colleagues across all levels to foster a collaborative culture. Mentor junior team members and contribute to the firm’s growth strategy.
