London, UK
I am looking for a right-hand analyst/associate to join me in acquiring a single, successful UK private company. This is not a typical finance role where you sit behind a screen building models or making slides. This is working in entrepreneurship through acquisition (ETA).
You will work directly with me in an office in Islington. Your goal is to help me find, evaluate, and buy a business. The work is high-reward, but it is not glamorous. You must be ready to roll up your sleeves. This is a perfect opportunity to learn how to identify and generate leads, how to design B2B campaigns to get attention, how to evaluate companies & deals and learn from the ground up how to build a team that functions with high performance.
You will build the pipeline. This means generating leads, cleaning data, and crafting outreach campaigns.
You will write personalised letters and emails to business owners. You will pick up the phone and cold call CEOs. You will handle rejection and keep going.
When a specific opportunity arises, you will evaluate the industry, the P&L, and help structure the valuation.
You will manage the CRM, organise meetings, and ensure the deal machine runs without friction.
You will learn about different industries and niches, and be able to spot opportunities and develop judgement.
I am looking for attitude, grit, motivation and accountability.
1-2 years of professional experience or internships in Investment Banking, Management Consulting, or a high-growth Startup or similar
Strong academic background from a reputable university.
Conscientious, hungry and low-ego. You have high agency. You don't wait to be told how to solve a problem. You are willing to go the extra mile.
Not afraid of cold calling or hearing NO.
Right to Work in the UK. No sponsorship is available.
Willing to work 5 days a week in the office in London. Remote will not be considered.
What I Offer:
Mentorship: You will sit next to me every day. You will learn how to buy a company from scratch.
Leadership: You will manage a team of interns and have your own projects to lead
Career Trajectory: This is a launchpad. Successful analysts often transition into a senior operating role (Chief of Staff / Head of Ops) within the acquired company, or go on to raise their own Search Fund or join IB or PE roles.
Base salary + performance bonus linked to deal milestones.
To apply, you will need to answer some questions to help me better understand your skills and interests, and to assess your suitability for the position.
