Location: London



The company:

Confidential - the company serves clients with a diverse but complimentary set of multi-media services and SaaS solutions and acquires complimentary businesses across the technology, software, data platform and B2B media sphere.

The strategy for the group is to create value through M&A and therefore the Corporate Development team is central to the businesses strategy.

  • Lead financial diligence of a transaction where deal size does not warrant third party adviser support.
  • Facilitate and project-manage other internal and external Due Diligence (Financial Legal, Commercial, Tech, People, Operations).
  • Build strong relationships with target companies, with internal stakeholders and contributors, and external advisors such as lawyers, bankers, and investors.
  • Prepare high quality papers/presentations to allow the CEO to understand the strategic rationale, financial appraisal and diligence conclusions of an acquisition.
  • Facilitate the development of integration plans for new acquisitions.



Requirements:


  • You should come from an Investment Banking background to VP. This can be also in addition to other prior experience in a related field.
  • Excellent analytical and technical skills and understanding of M&A concepts with strong commercial acumen.
  • Ability to create financial models and good understanding of valuation methodologies.
