Merchant Banking

Our nimble investment arm has many facets. Join us here and you'll harness the power of our Five Arrows Multi Strategies (FAMS) platform to scour the world's best portfolios.

Our Corporate Private Equity business invests in lower-middle market companies through Five Arrows Principal Investments (FAPI) in Europe, and Five Arrows Capital Partners (FACP) in the US.

We're well-known for our expertise in European direct secondaries, as well as global multi-managers mandates and co-investments. Rothschild & Co Credit Management (R&Co CM) manages secured, sub-investment grade credit across European and North American funds and investment mandates. And Direct Lending provides senior and subordinated debt financing solutions across the European mid-market.

What we offer

In line with our principles of integrity, respect and building relationships over the long-term, we pride ourselves on rewarding our people properly. Compensation is reviewed annually in line with performance appraisals and consists of a mix of fixed and variable elements. Fixed compensation is based on the local market rate as well as your responsibilities, skills and experience. The variable components are based on your own performance, as well as your team's and the wider business as a whole. And because we know that everyone has different priorities, we offer a platter of benefits on top.

Training and development

We treat all our employees as individuals, so there's no one-size-fits-all approach to the training we offer. When you join us we'll take the time to find out what your goals are and how we can help you reach them through bespoke coaching and development opportunities.
