About PrimePartners
PrimePartners Corporate Finance (PPCF) is a Singapore-based corporate finance firm established in 2003, licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore and approved by the Singapore Exchange as a Full Sponsor. We have completed over 70 listings and over 270 advisory engagements. We are the Singapore member of Oaklins, a global network of independent advisory firms specialising in mid-market M&A, with over 900 professionals across 60 offices in 40 countries. Oaklins ranked among the global top 15 advisers by deal count in LSEG’s worldwide mid-market M&A league tables in both 2024and 2025.
The opportunity
Cross-border transactions are central to our M&A practice. You will help connect businesses in Singapore and the region with international buyers, investors and acquisition opportunities. Working with senior bankers and overseas Oaklins teams, you will contribute from origination and valuation through due diligence and execution, developing the commercial judgement to navigate different markets and take on greater responsibility.
What you will work on
· Financial analysis and valuation: Build and analyse financial models, assess business performance and evaluate valuations using DCF, comparable companies and precedent transactions. Translate your analysis into clear commercial insights.
· Transaction materials: Prepare pitchbooks, teasers, information memoranda and management presentations that explain a business, its investment merits and the proposed transaction.
· Research and origination: Research sectors, companies and market developments; identify potential buyers, investors and acquisition targets; and help develop ideas for client discussions.
· Deal execution: Coordinate data rooms, information requests, due diligence processes and transaction timetables. Work with clients, counterparties and legal, accounting and other advisers to progress transactions and flag issues early.
· Cross-border execution: Collaborate directly with overseas advisers and Oaklins member firms on international buyer and target searches, share sector and market insights, and coordinate transaction workstreams across jurisdictions and time zones.
· Better ways of working: Contribute ideas to improve research, modelling and execution processes, including the responsibleuse of approved AI and data tools, with careful verification and protection of confidential information.
At Assistant Manager level, you will also take greater ownership of transaction workstreams, review analysis and client materials, guide junior colleagues and coordinate day-to-day delivery under the oversight of senior bankers.
What you will bring
· Relevant experience: Applicants with prior relevant experience in M&A, corporate finance, investment banking or transaction advisory will be viewed favourably. Your appointment as a Senior Associate or Assistant Manager will be commensurate with your deal experience and ability to take ownership.
· Technical capability: A sound understanding of financial statements, strong Excel and financial modelling skills, and familiarity with business valuation. You should be comfortable explaining the assumptions and commercial implications behind your analysis.
· Clear communication: The ability to produce well-structured presentations and communicate effectively with clients, colleagues and advisers. Strong written and spoken English is essential.
· Ownership and judgement: A proactive approach, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing deadlines, ask thoughtful questions and follow through on commitments.
· Teamwork and integrity: A collaborative working style, openness to feedback and sound judgement when handling sensitive client information.
· Qualifications: A degree in Accountancy, Finance, Business, Economics or a related discipline. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CFA, CA or ACCA, are an advantage.
Experience with financial databases, data analytics or AI-enabled research and productivity tools is welcome. Additional language skills relevant to our regional client base are an advantage.
