About Tura Advisory 

Tura Advisory is building an M&A advisory led by sector specialists for founder-managers. Headquartered in London, we work with founders of professional services businesses particularly in technology & creative services, and healthcare & life sciences on sell-side mandates to strategic and private equity buyers.  

Tura is young and ambitious, and our early success is testament to the experience and standing our Leadership have within the industry. The ideal candidate for this role will have significant opportunities to be involved at every stage of the deal life cycle. We are looking for an ambitious individual who wants to exceed expectations and accelerate their career in an entrepreneurial environment. 

Our approach combines deep sector and process expertise with a human-centred mindset. We pride ourselves on delivering a high-touch, senior-led experience to founders to maximise successful outcomes.  

Following a run of significant pitch wins, Tura is currently advising multiple sell-side clients. To support this growth, we are seeking an Associate or Senior Associate (depending on experience) to provide immediate deal execution support.  

Why We’re Different 

The M&A advisory industry is often seen as rigid, transactional, and impersonal. At Tura, we are changing that. We believe the best outcomes are achieved by combining cutting-edge processes, sector expertise, and rigorous analysis that recognises the personal as well as financial impact of every transaction. 

We are re-shaping what it means to advise founders by: 

• Placing people at the heart of deals guiding founders through one of the most important moments of their lives with empathy and respect 
• Using data and technology intelligently leveraging platforms, tools and AI to drive precision, efficiency, and insight 
• Challenging the industry norm proving that boutique firms can deliver an experience and outcome that rivals (and often exceeds) the big global players 

Role Overview 

This is a hands-on, execution-focused role suited to someone with at least some M&A or Transaction Services experience, who is confident working independently and delivering client-ready output with minimal supervision. You will work closely with the founders and senior colleagues across live projects, with a particular focus on financial analysis, market research, and preparation of core transaction materials.
