  • Run competitive financing processes, preparing information memoranda, lender presentations and term-sheet negotiations through to financial close.
  • Cultivate relationships with regional banks, debt funds, sovereign-wealth investors and family offices to secure capital for clients.
  • Advise on debt capital markets and equity issuance, including IPO readiness on the DFM and ADX where relevant.
  • Carry a personal fee budget and set commercial terms on engagements.
  • Direct and develop a team of directors and analysts and contribute to practice strategy across ADGM and DIFC.

Required Qualifications and Skills:

  • Deep knowledge of debt structuring, covenant packages, intercreditor arrangements and security mechanics.
  • Fluency in the regional regulatory environment, including the SCA, ADGM and DIFC frameworks.
  • Strong command of credit analysis, leveraged modelling and debt capacity assessment.
  • Established relationships across regional banks, credit funds and sovereign and family-office capital.
  • Sound understanding of IFRS as it bears on financing and covenant definitions.
  • Excellent written and spoken English, with the gravitas to advise boards and win mandates.
  • A track record of leading advisory teams and developing junior bankers.

Preferred Experience:

  • Experience of Islamic finance structures, including sukuk and murabaha facilities.
  • Exposure to DFM and ADX equity issuance and IPO-readiness advisory.
  • A portable network of borrower and lender relationships across the GCC.
