Working at Keningford

Keningford Partners is a lean, senior led investment bank where exceptional people do meaningful work on behalf of leading companies and institutional investors. We hire individuals who combine analytical rigor with sound judgment, discretion, and a genuine interest in long term client outcomes.

Our culture rewards ownership, intellectual curiosity, and teamwork. If you thrive in fast paced environments and want direct exposure to live transactions rather than back office support, we encourage you to explore our current openings.

Why Keningford

A boutique platform with institutional reach, where your contribution is visible from the first mandate.

High-Stakes Mandates

Work on complex capital raises, recapitalizations, and strategic M&A alongside senior bankers from day one, not peripheral support roles.

Direct Client Exposure
