About the Role

The Company is seeking a Managing Director to grow its buy-side advisory practice within an industry sector. The role focuses on sourcing and originating advisory engagements, developing client relationships, and leading transactions from strategy through execution. The Managing Director will advise private equity sponsors, investors, and corporate leaders; coordinate acquisition-target outreach; and manage client communications, transaction risks, and delivery quality. Additional responsibilities include contributing to the practice’s strategic direction, partnering across advisory teams, and recruiting, mentoring, and developing talent. Candidates should bring 10 or more years of executive-level experience in their sector, substantial buy-side M&A advisory experience, and a record of originating and leading engagements. Established relationships across the private equity community, strong business development and direct sales capabilities, and experience advising senior executives and investors are essential. The role also requires financial acumen, exceptional communication and leadership skills, and a track record of building high-performing teams and managing complex issues across business cycles. A strong educational background is expected.
