James Rowse - Associate, Corporate Finance & Restructuring
The best things about working in the Corporate Finance and Restructuring team are the people you work with and the breadth of experience you’re able to gain. Since joining in 2020, I’ve had the chance to work on engagements in sectors ranging from aviation and retail to mining and real estate. Graduates initially focus on insolvency mandates to gain a solid industry grounding, with a pathway to working on projects ranging from options analysis, EPMs and IBRs to distressed M&A processes and the largest and most complex restructurings in the market. Whatever your interest, there is scope to work towards your preferred business area in a broad, market-leading restructuring practice.
Day in, day out you’re working closely with some of the most talented individuals in the market who are regularly recognised externally as industry leaders – it’s a great place to learn. The flat team structure lends itself not only to great opportunities to work with senior colleagues, but also to a tight-knit team who offer a strong support and progression network for graduates. At FTI, I feel challenged and supported in equal measure.
