Your goal
As M&A Director at Marktlink, you will be responsible for the entire transaction process from A to Z for various industries and entrepreneurs. For over 25 years, we have been successful in M&A in the SME and lower mid-market in Europe, and we are now looking to replicate this success in the UK. On a daily basis, you will perform company and market analyses, prepare valuations and bid books, meet potential buyers and sellers, and expand and maintain your network.
Our ideal candidate has at least 5 years of experience within M&A, although more important for us is an employee with a solid financial foundation, analytical skills, and, most importantly, a commercial mindset. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering high-quality M&A advice and developing yourself into a top-notch partner.
You will advise and guide our mid-market clients through the entire buy-side or sell-side process, be responsible for building up and developing your own network, and lead the deal team of passionate deal makers. Marktlink has no specific industry focus, which means you can bring your own network or start building it up based on your preference. Based on your revenue, you can become a Partner in a few years.
Excited and wanting to meet our highly driven team? Then don't hesitate to apply!
