This is a rare opportunity to step into a genuine ownership seat, leading complex client relationships from the front, with a clear path to partnership. Our client is a Melbourne-based boutique advisory practice with a deliberately small, high-calibre client base: privately owned groups among the largest and most complex in Australia. The work is sophisticated, the client relationships are direct, and the firm has built a reputation for delivering advice that genuinely moves the needle. They don't take on every client. They take on the right ones.
