Financial Advisory | Assistant Manager to Senior ManagerBristol / Cardiff | Hybrid Working

Looking for broader advisory experience, greater responsibility and genuine career progression?

We're partnering with a growing UK advisory firm seeking a talented professional to join its Financial Advisory team.

The firm is flexible on seniority, considering candidates from Assistant Manager through to Senior Manager level, depending on experience and technical capability.

Whether you're a strong Senior Associate ready to step up, an established Assistant Manager or Manager, or a more experienced advisory professional, this could be an excellent opportunity to broaden your expertise.

The Opportunity

You'll work across a varied portfolio of assignments, including:

• Financial due diligence (FDD) and lender due diligence
• Independent business reviews (IBRs)
• Cash flow forecasting and advisory
• Financial analysis and client-facing reporting
• Exposure to restructuring-related assignments

The role is approximately 90% Financial Advisory and 10% restructuring, offering the chance to expand beyond traditional transaction-focused work.

Previous restructuring experience isn't required, and there are no individual business development targets.

What We're Looking For

• Experience in Financial Advisory, Transaction Services, Deals or a closely related advisory discipline
• Strong hands-on exposure to FDD, IBRs and/or cash flow advisory
• Excellent financial analysis, Excel and report-writing skills
• Confidence working directly with clients
• Relevant professional qualifications, with flexibility around post-qualification experience

Candidates from purely audit or financial reporting backgrounds without relevant advisory experience are unlikely to be suitable.

Why Make the Move?

• Flexible appointment level: Opportunities from Assistant Manager to Senior Manager, based on experience
• Broader exposure: Develop expertise across FDD, IBRs, cash flow advisory and restructuring-related work
• Technical focus: Concentrate on delivering high-quality advisory work without individual business development targets
• Career progression: Join a growing team with scope to progress beyond your initial appointment level

Location: Bristol, with Cardiff-based candidates considered where they can travel to Bristol approximately 1–2 days per week.
