Partnering Lead - London, United Kingdom - Hays Senior Finance

    Default job background
    Description
    My client is a large UK firm and part of an eponymous international network.

    Recent strategic re-alignment of service-lines has led to the firm now going to market in solution groupings and there is now a genuine Consulting "ecosystem." Leadership at the top of the firm has for some time now been led by Advisory Partners and the UK firm has a long tradition of being renowned for its Corporate Finance and Restructuring services in particular.

    The firm's top line has now doubled, and strategically the next focus for investment is the Forensic function, which is currently focused primarily on investigations, fraud advisory, valuations and private client disputes.

    Importantly, the firm is on a continued journey to change the lens through which it is viewed, from being an audit/tax firm with Consultancy, to a Consulting firm which happens to also have audit and tax.

    This is an incredibly rare chance in this market to make genuine impact on the UK practice of an internationally recognised brand.

    Commercial Disputes is to date the most underdeveloped of the Forensic capabilities, due to having no London-based practitioner in the field.

    While it's widely acknowledged Expert work usually follows its Expert, brand and cross-specialism referrals still make a big difference both to opportunities and delivery capability and this firm's new streamlined approach to market ensures collaboration on projects and business development is much easier.

    A UK-based and experienced commercial disputes practitioner, you're likely to be at one of the following levels:

    Building a business for yourself, not a PE house
    Enough testifying Experts in other disciplines to bounce ideas around with, yet knowing that Commercial Disputes is yours to develop freely and strategically
    A brand that is recognised across the globe, with boots on the ground in every country.
    A brand that is working hard for you in the background - no whitespace issues/having to explain who they are

    I have a briefing document prepared for any potentially interested and relevant person, but I always think the best start is an exploratory phone call or meeting, which I'd warmly welcome and treat with complete discretion.
