Job Specifications

Investment Banking Associate – M&A & Fundraising

Edinburgh | Execution-Focused

Meraki Talent is partnering with an independent investment banking advisory seeking an execution-led Investment Banking Associate.

This is a delivery role, not business development at this stage.

You will run live M&A and fundraising transactions end-to-end within a lean, high-performance team.

Deal size: £40m–£100m sweet spot, with exposure to larger transactions

Sectors: Broad and sector-agnostic

Environment: Entrepreneurial, accountable, low bureaucracy

You will:

Lead transaction execution
Manage advisers, investors and counterparties
Represent the firm directly with clients
Maintain pace and commercial discipline

This role suits an investment banking or corporate finance professional who prefers running deals rather than chasing them.

If you want autonomy, visibility and meaningful responsibility, then this is worth a conversation.

Contact Dean at Meraki Talent.
