VP/Director – M&A Advisory – Mid-Market Corporate Advisory Platform – Perth

• Key 2IC role supporting an established and growing M&A franchise.
• Broad exposure across mid-market transactions, working alongside a national advisory platform.
• Clear pathway to increased leadership responsibility as the Perth business scales.

‍

An established independent corporate advisory platform is seeking to appoint a Vice President or Director to support the continued growth of its Perth-based M&A advisory business. The team is experiencing strong momentum, with active deal flow and a growing client base, creating the need for a senior execution professional to oversee day-to-day transaction delivery, staff management, and process leadership.

‍

This role offers hands-on involvement across the full transaction lifecycle, including financial analysis, valuation, deal execution, client management, and mentoring junior staff. Working closely with a highly commercial and origination-focused senior leader, the successful candidate will play a critical role in building the local advisory offering while leveraging the support of a broader national platform. Exposure spans a diverse range of sectors and transaction types, with a generalist approach to the market.

‍

The ideal candidate will bring 7+ years of relevant experience ideally gained within M&A advisory, although corporate development, Big 4 corporate finance or professionals who have transitioned from audit or valuations into transaction advisory will be considered. Strong financial modelling, valuation, transaction execution, and stakeholder management skills are essential. Perth-based professionals or those with strong ties to Western Australia seeking a return to the market are particularly encouraged.
