Role Summary
The Director, Restructuring & Insolvency, provides hands-on leadership and execution across complex restructuring, turnaround, and distressed engagements. This role operates as a primary day-to-day engagement leader, responsible for translating ambiguity into structured action, driving analyses and recommendations under pressure, and influencing stakeholders toward outcomes.
The Director role requires strong independent judgment, a high tolerance for uncertainty, and a results-oriented mindset. Directors are expected to proactively lead workstreams, shape engagement strategy, drive execution quality, and serve as a trusted advisor to clients, lenders, legal counsel, and internal teams.
This role is well-suited to professionals who thrive in volatile environments, take initiative without waiting for direction, and maintain execution intensity across prolonged, high-stakes engagements.
Key Responsibilities
Distressed Situation Analysis & Execution Leadership
Lead day-to-day execution of restructuring, turnaround, and special situation engagements, actively involving and developing team members through structured exposure to senior-level analysis, decision-making, and stakeholder interaction
Rapidly structure incomplete, evolving, or conflicting information into clear analyses and decision paths
Develop and oversee cash flow forecasts, liquidity analyses, financial models, and restructuring scenarios under compressed timelines
Identify key drivers, risks, and constraints across capital structures, operations, and stakeholder dynamics
Judgement Driven Problem Solving
Apply strong independent judgment in ambiguous, high-pressure environments where precedent may be limited
Design practical, situation-specific solutions rather than relying solely on standard restructuring playbooks
Balance speed, creativity, and discipline in decision-making to preserve momentum and credibility
Stakeholder Influence & Advisory Support
Serve as a primary interface with client executives, lenders, creditors, and legal advisors on assigned matters, while coaching team members on effective executive-level communication, positioning, and credibility
Effectively influence stakeholders through logic, data-driven insight, and decisiveness—without requiring consensus
Navigate disagreement, tension, and competing interests to drive forward progress and outcomes
Engagement & Team Leadership
Lead, coach, and develop engagement teams, setting clear priorities and performance expectations while actively building judgment, confidence, and situational problem-solving skills
Maintain team focus, morale, and productivity during high-stress, time-sensitive situations, providing real-time feedback and guidance to accelerate learning under pressure
Provide structure without over-engineering processes or slowing execution, using live case work as a primary coaching and skills-transfer mechanism
Business Development Support
Support Managing Directors & Senior Managing Directors in business development efforts, including proposal development, market intelligence, and client cultivation, using these activities as developmental opportunities to build commercial judgment in junior leaders
Build credibility and long-term relationships that contribute to repeat engagements and referral activity
Gradually increase origination contribution consistent with experience and tenure
Leadership & Performance Expectations
Maintain composure and decision quality during periods of high uncertainty, pressure, and rapid change
Demonstrate initiative and ownership without reliance on constant direction or validation
Adapt quickly as legal dynamics, financial realities, or client priorities evolve
Sustain performance intensity across extended, demanding engagements
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field
9–12+ years of experience in restructuring, turnaround advisory, investment banking, consulting, or other distressed environments
Demonstrated success leading complex analyses and workstreams independently
Strong experience with financial statement analysis, cash flow modeling, capital structures, and creditor negotiations
Proven ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, high-pressure environments
Preferred Skills
CPA, CFA, CTP, MBA, or similar professional credential
Prior experience serving in interim management roles (e.g., finance or operations leadership)
Exposure to Chapter 11 proceedings, out-of-court restructurings, or operational turnarounds
Established relationships within the restructuring ecosystem (lenders, attorneys, financial sponsors)
