Key Responsibilities

• Working on restructuring and insolvency engagements on a day-to-day basis
• Supporting a portfolio of restructuring and insolvency appointments
• Assist with detailed financial and commercial analysis of businesses to identify key issues, challenges, opportunities and risks
• Assisting with receivership, liquidation, valuation analysis and modeling, financial advisory mandates
• Understanding the market, topical issues and our Restructuring propositions
• Presenting findings clearly in client / court reports
• Producing high quality deliverables within planned timescales
• Supporting and contributing to client presentations and wider advisory work
• Conducting industry and business research as required

Requirements

• Business proficiency in English is essential and Chinese (Cantonese and/or Mandarin) proficiency is preferred
• Bachelor's degree in a business or finance-related subject
• Up to 2 years of working experience in an accounting/audit/restructuring role
• Prior restructuring, insolvency, transaction or private markets experience gained in a professional services company is advantageous
• ACCA/ACA/CPA qualifications or equivalent, preferred
• Financial analysis skills with ability to analyse financial statements and extract useful information from large sets of unorganised or incomplete data
• Possess strong skills in the Microsoft Office suite
• Client focused, ensuring high quality service at all times
• Excellent communication, report writing and project management skills
• Flexibility to meet peak demands when required and prioritise workload
