- Demonstrated leadership experience managing and developing a team
- Strong communication skills and the ability to build trust with senior stakeholders
- A genuine interest in being part of a firm's continued growth and success

Perks

- Clear KPIs set from day one to support your progression to Director
- Bonus scheme available, up to $40k per year
- Exposure to a growing portfolio of larger, more complex clients
- A genuinely collaborative culture across service lines, with a client first mindset rather than a focus on who gets credit for the fee

- Ongoing professional development including sales and soft skills training
