Type: Full-Time | Hybrid
Compensation: $120K–$50K base + bonus - with set target
Experience: 7–12 years in M&A, investment banking, or boutique advisory

This boutique M&A advisory firm guides founder-led businesses through the most significant transition of their lives: selling their company. The mission is to protect legacies, maximize value, and create long-term success for clients and their communities.

Do you thrive on solving complex problems? Are you a high performer who’s intrinsically motivated and eager to lead? Do you enjoy meaningful client interaction, mentorship, and the challenge of running deals from start to finish, without the pressure to source them yourself? If this sounds like you, we’d love to connect.

Working exclusively in the lower middle market, guiding founder-led businesses through the divestiture process with a relationship-driven approach; we are looking for a Vice President to take over an established role and continue driving high-quality mandates forward as we refine and enhance our deal execution team.

The Opportunity:

Lead with Impact

• Take ownership of sell-side mandates from inception to close
• Work directly with lawyers, accountants, bankers, and internal team members
• Guide clients through valuation, marketing, due diligence, and negotiation
• Own the deal lifecycle: valuation, CIM creation, buyer list development, negotiations, and diligence
  

Team Leadership & Strategy

• Manage and mentor a small team with a focus on skills development and execution
• Refine internal processes and shape our M&A methodologies
• Collaborate with partners to meet quarterly and annual goals

Relationship Building

• Focus on buyer-side pipeline development (no deal origination required)
• Help deepen the network of buyers and COIs

What We’re Looking For

• 7–12 years’ experience in M&A, investment banking, corporate development, or boutique advisory
  
  
• 10+ completed deals, with at least 3 where you led the process
  
  
• Professional designation (CPA, CFA, or CBV required); MBA preferred
  
  
• Strong financial acumen—you can normalize and explain financials
  
  
• Expertise in lower middle market transactions (sub-$100M EV)
  
  
• Buyer Network is a key piece; having an ecosystem to draw from will ensure you can hit the ground running
• Having the ability to navigate tough conversations with buyers and sellers, understand the nuances of the match-making process, and get hands dirty to ensure information is accurate and complete.

• Excellent communicator who inspires trust with clients and one who mentors well and collaborates easily
  
• An analytical thinker who loves solving problems and managing complexity

Bonus Points If You…

• Have experience in public accounting or banking
  
  
• Have exited big-firm life and are seeking something entrepreneurial
