Managing Director - Independent Practice - Northern England

The Principals Group is a curated global network of senior operators who have built their careers on what AI cannot replicate — deep domain expertise, trusted relationships, and the judgement to deliver in complexity. It is a professional home for accomplished leaders who choose independence — a platform that gives you a recognised standard, a marketing and delivery engine, and a room of true peers, while your client relationships and the work you win remain entirely your own. We’re particularly interested in senior leaders based across the North of England, including Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle and surrounding areas. What you'll do Lead senior advisory and value-creation mandates for clients in your domain Win and own your client relationships, backed by the TPG brand and pipeline engine Set the direction of your own practice — your market, your team, your terms Work directly with owners and C-level leaders to deliver outcomes that matter What you bring 10+ years of senior operating responsibility — real decisions, real consequences A track record of owning outcomes, not just advising on them Deep expertise in a domain — e.g. operations, finance/M&A, growth/GTM, technology, or industry leadership Confidence with owners and C-suite stakeholders, and a network you have earned The ambition of someone who is decidedly not finished This is the right next step if you want less bureaucracy, more ownership, and a platform to build something of your own — without going it alone.
