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 introductions. Companies rely on our client to conduct 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 across the following process:
* Agree the scope of the acquisition search with clients, at the board level.
* Liaise with the research team to identify businesses within the client’s search criteria. The research will be conducted by an in-house team.
* Approach shareholders of target businesses and hold detailed, highly commercial conversations via video call about their business model, track record, growth, financials, and owner’s selling aspirations.
* Discuss potential targets with the client and facilitate introductions to selected businesses.
* Manage the acquisition process thereafter, requiring strong commercial acumen but not financial qualifications.
Applicants should be able to understand various business models quickly. Experience operating at the board level is important due to direct client relationship management with owners, CEOs, and private equity firms.
We welcome applicants from diverse commercial backgrounds, including those who have run their own businesses or operated at the director level.
This role offers a competitive salary and a highly attractive, transparent bonus structure paid multiple times a year, based on deal activity. The bonus is uncapped; in a good year, bonuses can amount to 100% of salary or more.
