Any London recruiters that can advise on the NQ market?

About to start my training contract at a respected international law firm who aren’t known for the kind of work I want to do (PE M&A). Looking to discuss how I can best position myself to exit as an NQ.

Thanks.

I PMed you but as I said in the PM, relax! You haven’t started yet. Go make sure you do your PE rotation, get as much M&A experience as you can, do your adjacent rotations in Lev Fin, employment, tax etc and don’t worry the PE NQ market is always mental anyway. You’ll be fine

Right now in talks for a sustainability director role that would be closer to $160k base / $20k bonus. (More in comments)
