What Were Looking For

Were seeking a Buy-Side Development Manager to help lead our acquisition engine from sourcing and assessing deals to integrating companies into our ecosystem. This role blends strategy, execution, and empathy: youll identify high-potential ventures, lead smart deal structures, and ensure seamless transitions post-acquisition. If you thrive in unstructured environments, love building from scratch, and get energy from both analysis and relationships, this is for you. You wont love this role if you:

Need strict structure, process, or step-by-step direction. View acquisitions only as financial transactions rather than growth partnerships. Feel uncomfortable with ambiguity, pivots, or wearing multiple hats.
