* Documentation & Process: Support preparation of investment papers and board materials; refine internal M&A processes to ensure repeatable deal execution.
Candidate Profile:

* Strong understanding of the transaction lifecycle and ability to manage multiple complex deals simultaneously.
* High commercial acumen and excellent communication skills.
* Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, lean environment with multiple stakeholders.
* International M&A exposure and energy/services sector experience preferred but not essential.
