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 specializes 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 the approach to these businesses. Companies rely on our client to have thorough commercial conversations with business owners, quickly understanding different business models and building trust with target businesses.
In this role, the successful candidate will be responsible for end-to-end client management across the following process:
* Agree the scope of the acquisition search with clients, at board level.
* Liaise with the research team to identify businesses within the client’s search criteria. Note: research is performed by an in-house research team.
* Approach the majority shareholders of target businesses and hold lengthy, highly commercial conversations via video call to discuss their business model, track record, growth trajectory, financials, and the owners' aspirations regarding selling their business.
* Discuss each interested business with the client and facilitate meetings with potential targets.
* Manage the acquisition process relationship thereafter (no financial qualifications required, but commercial acumen is essential).
Applicants should be able to quickly understand different business models. Experience operating at board level is important as you will manage client relationships at owner/CEO level, often with large corporates, private equity, and private equity-backed businesses.
This role welcomes applicants from various commercial backgrounds. The current team comprises individuals who have previously run their own businesses or operated at Director level.
This position offers a competitive salary with an attractive, transparent bonus structure paid multiple times a year, based on deal activity. The bonus scheme is uncapped; in a good year, bonuses can amount to 100% of your salary or more.
