Type: Full-Time
Salary: £55,000 - £65,000
Are you ready to play a pivotal role in shaping Idverde's strategic growth across Europe? Join us as we lead the way in green infrastructure services!
About Idverde
Idverde is Europe's leading provider of green infrastructure services, with a growing presence across the UK and Europe. We are on the lookout for a high-potential M&A Analyst to join our dynamic Corporate Development team based in London. This is an exceptional opportunity for a junior candidate eager to build a career in M&A.
In this role, you will immerse yourself in a live deal environment, learning directly from senior leaders and gaining hands-on experience across the entire transaction lifecycle—from market mapping and due diligence to deal execution and integration.
About the Role
As an M&A Analyst, you will report to the Group Head of M&A and Corporate Development, collaborating closely with the M&A Director. Your responsibilities will include:
* Conducting market reviews and identifying potential acquisition targets across Europe.
* Supporting pipeline tracking, due diligence coordination, and company analysis.
* Preparing presentations for the Board and Executive Committee on acquisition opportunities.
* Assisting with valuation modeling, deal structuring, negotiation preparation, and SPA reviews.
* Supporting integration planning and post-deal monitoring across acquired businesses.
Your initial focus will be on internal processes, coordination, and analysis, with opportunities to grow into deeper deal support and ownership over time (6-12 months).
What We're Looking For
This role is perfect for a junior or entry-level candidate with a strong academic background and a clear ambition to excel in M&A. We are particularly interested in individuals who:
* Are currently undertaking ACA training or have recently qualified.
* Have experience in audit, FP&A, treasury, or corporate finance, with solid exposure to company accounts.
* Are highly numerate, analytical, and commercially aware.
* Are motivated self-starters with excellent attention to detail and a proactive approach.
* Possess strong communication skills and can work effectively across cross-functional teams.
Languages: Fluent English is essential. Proficiency in German, French, or another European language is a plus but not required.
Why Join Us?
At Idverde, no two projects are ever the same, and neither are our people. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive culture where everyone can thrive.
What We Offer
* Career Development: Enjoy career advancement opportunities through bespoke apprenticeship programs, extensive in-house training, and mentorship.
* Collaborative Team Environment: Work in a diverse and inclusive workplace alongside passionate and talented individuals.
* Meaningful Impact: Contribute to projects that make a real difference in the community and environment.
