They will be given a good degree of client exposure and will be tasked with running transactions at the appropriate level, supervised where necessary. As such, we are looking for a personable individual who is keen to develop and build relationships with clients with a view to enhancing and mining those contacts.

The role is exciting, not only because of the opportunity it provides to gain a breadth of experience undertaking high-quality work, but also due to the ambition harbored by the partners to grow a sub-team which provides a first-class service offering to a first-class client base.
It is envisaged that the successful candidate would undertake a good proportion of work for some of the team's existing clients and will possess the appropriate rapport, personality, and commercial acumen to assist with the growth and development of these clients.
