Job Description:
SJC Partners is currently managing the recruitment process for the hire of an Acquisition Search Director into an innovative mergers and acquisitions deal sourcing business.
Our client specialises in sourcing off-market businesses for acquisition by private equity investors, PE-backed companies, listed businesses, and some private companies.
Businesses wishing to acquire or invest in other businesses engage our client to undertake a bespoke acquisition search process, uncovering target businesses within their specific criteria and facilitating introductions. Companies rely on our client to have thorough commercial conversations with business owners, quickly understanding different business models and building trust with target businesses.
The successful candidate will be responsible for end-to-end client management, including:
* Agreeing the scope of the acquisition search with clients at board level.
* Liaising with the research team to identify potential businesses within the client’s search criteria. Note: research will be performed by an in-house team.
* Approaching majority shareholders of target businesses and engaging in detailed, highly commercial conversations via video calls about their business model, financials, growth, and exit aspirations.
* Discussing potential targets with the client and facilitating introductions to selected businesses.
* Managing the acquisition process relationship thereafter, requiring strong commercial acumen.
Applicants should be able to quickly understand various business models and have experience operating at board level, given the need to manage client relationships with owners/CEOs, often of large corporates, private equity, or private equity-backed firms.
This role is open to candidates from diverse commercial backgrounds, including those who have run their own businesses or held director-level positions.
The role offers a competitive salary with an attractive, transparent bonus structure paid multiple times annually, based on deal activity. Bonuses are uncapped; in a good year, bonuses can equal or exceed 100% of the salary.
