  • Effectively manage outside vendors as needed (tech, commercial, accounting, legal).
  • Negotiate key legal and other commercial agreements (SPA, working capital mechanisms etc).
  • Manage post-acquisition integration, implementing the Group’s best practices and capitalising on the opportunities surfaced during diligence.
  • Nurture business broker and banker relationships to aid in business development efforts.

  • 5-10 years in corporate development / in-house M&A, preferably working with technology companies or in an acquisition-focused consolidator.
  • Other relevant experience will be considered, such as operating experience as a leader within a growing software company, experience with recurring revenue business models at a top-tier consulting firm, or those with an investment banking background.
  • Proven ability to negotiate legal agreements and other commercial principles (SPA, working capital mechanisms etc).
  • Ability to quickly evaluate key risks and opportunities in a business.
  • Ability to negotiate and execute acquisitions with business owners/executives.
  • Financial literacy and ability to build presentations for executive team/board-level audiences.

This is an outstanding career opportunity to be a key contributor in a rapidly growing European M&A function which has grown from just 1 employee to 15 over the past 12 months.

The Group is committed to the career development of its team members and as such, your leadership role in numerous acquisitions will allow for further growth opportunities as an operating executive at one of the Group’s businesses.
