At Houlihan Lokey, we’re committed to sharing our global resources to help our employees and interns achieve their full potential. You’ll work alongside senior bankers, gaining expert knowledge and valuable experience to launch your career. We invest in the most driven and talented junior staff with the goal of gaining valuable team members to grow and succeed with our firm.

Our History

Houlihan Lokey was established in 1972 in Los Angeles, California, initially as a general advisory practice for private businesses. Our investment banking business came into being in 1986. In the years that followed, our success in M&A, financial restructuring, and other related disciplines led us to open several new offices across the United States.

Much has changed since then. While we maintain a strong North American presence, with offices in 10 cities, we are now a diverse, multinational business with extensive operations across Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Culture, Diversity, and Values

Diversity and inclusion are vital to our approach and the ongoing success of our business. Our primary concern is not where our people went to school or university, or even which subject they studied. We are more interested in whether they have the talent, passion, and enthusiasm needed to drive our business forward over the years to come.

We work hard to cultivate an inclusive work environment that is welcoming of people of all backgrounds and nationalities. As our business continues to expand and evolve around the world, having a workforce that can offer different insights and experiences has never been more important for Houlihan Lokey.

Working Within the Community

We take our social responsibilities extremely seriously. Wherever we are located in the world, you will find our employees working hard to drive the economic, social, and environmental well-being of the global communities in which we live and work.

Our junior colleagues are especially enthusiastic participants in our community-focused programmes. As a Houlihan Lokey employee, you will always have opportunities to be actively involved in the issues that personally matter to you.
