An opportunity has arisen for an experienced Analyst or early-stage Associate to join a highly regarded global investment banking platform in Melbourne.

The team advises leading corporates, financial sponsors and institutional clients on complex strategic and transactional matters across Australia and internationally, with particular strength across mergers and acquisitions, strategic advisory and capital markets.

This role would suit someone looking to build their career within a lean, senior-led advisory environment where junior bankers are given meaningful responsibility, direct exposure to clients and the prospect to work closely with experienced bankers across Australia, Asia-Pacific and global offices.

The role offers exposure to a broad range of sectors and transaction types, including public and private M&A;, strategic advisory, capital raisings, restructurings and other complex corporate situations.

The team operates with a relatively flat structure, creating strong access to senior bankers and allowing high-performing Analysts and Associates to take on meaningful responsibility earlier than they might within a larger, more hierarchical platform.
