Restructuring Vacationer Program null

Think beyond.

Join KordaMentha where you can make a real difference from day one.

Each year, we run a vacationer program during the summer university break. We recruit a select number of high-performing students in their second to last year of their degree for either a four- or eight-week work placement.

Forget the notion of an observational rotation. At KordaMentha, you will become part of a unique, creative and entrepreneurial team, gaining practical experience as we work together to solve our clients’ most complex commercial problems. You will learn how we move beyond a standard approach, asking the ‘what if…?’ and ‘why not…?’ questions required to find bold, new ways to help our clients grow, protect and recover value.

Whatever your passion, explore your career path with KordaMentha.

Your opportunity

Applications are now open to join our Restructuring group for the 2023/2024 vacationer intake.

Under expert mentorship, gain valuable insights into independent business reviews, cash flow monitoring and forecasting, restructuring, financial and strategic advisory and formal insolvency appointments. Make a real impact as, together, we solve our clients most pressing transactional and commercial challenges.

What you’ll be doing

As a vacationer in our restructuring group, you’ll work in creative project teams to manage Australia’s largest and most complex corporate restructures, receiverships, administrations and liquidations.

• manage creditor enquires and process receipts and payments
• help to meet statutory obligations including preparing business activity statements and ASIC forms
• attend meetings with clients and key stakeholders
