Job description

Director – Restructuring & Turnaround Advisory | Sydney

Partner-led. Advisory-focused. Two extra weeks of leave every year.

If you love the strategic, advisory side of restructuring and you're tired of grinding through high-volume insolvency files, this is the role you've been waiting for.

Our client is a highly respected independent restructuring firm with a growing team and a reputation for doing things differently. Their work centres on restructuring, turnaround and advisory engagements. When they take on formal appointments, they're carefully chosen, low-volume voluntary administrations, not a conveyor belt of liquidations. That means you get real time on each matter, real input into the outcome and real relationships with the businesses you're helping.

Why this role stands out

• Partner-led. You'll work hand in hand with partners who are invested in your growth. No layers, no politics.


• Advisory-focused. You'll spend your time on turnaround strategy, restructuring advice and complex stakeholder work, not churning through compliance-heavy files.


• 2 weeks of bonus leave. That's on top of your annual leave, every year.


• A team on the rise. The firm is growing, so there's genuine scope to shape the practice and accelerate your path to partnership.


• Beautiful offices and flexible working that actually works.


• An outstanding culture. It's collegiate, supportive and high-performing, and people stay because they enjoy it.

What you'll do

• Lead restructuring, turnaround and advisory engagements from start to finish


• Run a select portfolio of voluntary administrations


• Advise boards, lenders and stakeholders through complex situations


• Mentor and develop managers and analysts


• Help grow the firm's client and referral network

What you'll bring

• Senior Manager or Director-level restructuring experience, from a specialist firm or a Big 4/mid-tier practice


• Strong advisory and turnaround capability, with confidence leading client relationships


• CA/CPA qualified; Registered Liquidator (or working towards it) highly regarded


• A collaborative leadership style and a genuine interest in building something
