Interpath is an international and fast-growing advisory business with deep expertise in a broad range of specialisms spanning deals, advisory and restructuring capabilities. We deliver tangible results for global businesses, their investors, and stakeholders when complex problems arise, and critical decisions need to be made. Interpath is agile, independent, and conflict-free, and our passion for doing what's right, every time, sets us apart. Our diverse teams provide specialist technical knowledge combined with deep sector experience across our service line specialisms. Since our foundation in 2021, Interpath has grown rapidly, and we now have a presence across the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Austria, Spain, BVI, Cayman Islands, Bermuda, Barbados, and Hong Kong. By 2030 we aim to be one of the world's leading advisory firms with a truly global footprint. The City and International Restructuring team in London "(CII) " are looking for a Manager to join their team. Joining Interpath Advisory means joining a dynamic and talented team of exceptional colleagues who bring innovative thoughts and a natural curiosity to the work they do each day. With no two days the same, we are looking for people who are willing to embrace a challenge and support businesses through adversity and growth. No one type of person succeeds at Interpath Advisory; a diverse business requires a range of personalities and perspectives, strong teamwork and a passion for client success. We are looking for an individual to work alongside colleagues in the CII team which is responsible for providing a diverse range of restructuring advisory, formal insolvency and contingency planning advice in large, complex situations often covering multi jurisdictional territories. The team delivers a blend of stakeholder advisory work, typically linked to providing advice around distressed businesses and supporting restructuring via the use of insolvency procedures as well as undertaking formal insolvency work for large and complex institutions. The team is aligned to a broad range of sectors and specialisms and boasts significant experience spanning multiple areas and situations, where we welcome sector specialisms in candidates. Applicants should expect to work across all sectors as situations and the client's needs demand. Where possible, assignments will be resourced to suit an individual's base location, but the nature and unpredictability of our work will mean that some travel (and possible international working) will be required. The role will involve working across a range of assignment types, as highlighted above, and applicants should be ready to work in dynamic, flexible and fast moving environments.
