Manager- Restructuring, Insolvency & Advisory in Sydney, New South Wales at Cor Cordis

Manager role advising mid-market businesses through complex restructuring. Shape outcomes, mentor teams, and drive growth.

We don't see insolvency as the inevitable outcome. We see it as the last resort — and the skills that manage one are often the same skills that can avoid it.

We're growing our Sydney restructuring and insolvency team and hiring at Manager level. You'll be working live engagements from day one, not sitting on the sidelines of them.

What we do

We help businesses facing complex financial challenges find a way forward. Sometimes that's restructuring. Sometimes it's a turnaround. Sometimes it's finding an innovative solution no one else considered. Our Sydney team specialises in using the skills gained from managing insolvencies to avoid them wherever possible, preserving not just profitability, but privacy and reputation as well.

We work across all sectors: financial services, manufacturing, retail, property, construction, mining, and agribusiness. Every client is different. Every situation is unique. So the solutions need to be, too.

What you’ll be doing

As a Manager in our Sydney team, you will manage engagements and shape outcomes for our clients at critical moments. Your role will span:

• Drive outcomes and be responsible for insolvency engagements (both formal and informal) from start to completion.
• Engaging directly with stakeholders, including creditors, debtors and legal representatives to keep engagements moving and outcomes on track
• Work alongside our senior team and have real input into strategy and implementation of strategy, across all parts of the business.
• Provide guidance, training and counsel to junior colleagues.
• Work as part of a team and collaborate across our offices.
• Manage workflow and resource allocation to satisfy multiple stakeholder expectations.

Every appointment is a business at a critical moment. The work is about protecting value and finding the best path forward, not just processing a file.

Who you are

You bring significant experience in restructuring and insolvency, along with a business or accounting-related degree (or equivalent). You are CA or CPA qualified, with ARITA qualifications either obtained or in progress.

You demonstrate strong technical capability, assertive communication skills, and excel in both written and verbal communication. You have a strong work ethic, thrive in a collaborative team environment and bring proven leadership experience or clear ambition to step into a leadership role.

Most importantly, you are someone who looks beyond the conventional answer, who wants to understand the full picture before recommending a path forward.

Why Cor Cordis

We are a leading independent advisory and restructuring firm with national presence across Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, and Sydney. Intentionally mid-sized, you will work directly with senior leaders and see how your contributions shape outcomes. We are values-driven in everything we do: we embrace differences, lead with integrity, and believe together we succeed.

Our approach is collaborative, not hierarchical. We value fresh perspectives and diverse thinking. We believe the best solutions come from understanding the business as deeply as the numbers.

What we offer

Parental leave: 18 weeks paid parental leave for primary carers, two weeks for secondary carers, with guaranteed flexible return to work.

Flexibility: Flexible working arrangements and support for work-life balance.
