We’re working on a hire for a top US firm’s London restructuring team. Lean, highly selective, and consistently involved in some of the most complex mandates in the market.
The team is actively reviewing profiles and moving quickly for the right individual.
This is the kind of team where:
- You’re in the room with partners, not just feeding into them
- You take real ownership early
- You work across creditor, sponsor and company-side situations

Development / progression
This is a genuinely strong environment for long-term progression.
- You build partner-level skillsets early (client handling, strategy, negotiation)
- You develop commercial judgement, not just technical ability
- Progression is based on ability and contribution, not time served
For the right individual, this is a setup that puts you on a realistic path towards Partnership.
