Job Description

Join the founding team of an AI-augmented investment bank disrupting SMB M&A. You will own the entire deal lifecycle from onboarding to close for owner-managed businesses. This role leverages proprietary AI tools to automate manual workflows, allowing you to manage 5-8 simultaneous sell‑side campaigns and earn uncapped commissions in a high‑growth environment.

Location

Why this role is remarkable

• Significant financial upside with 10-15% success fee commissions and 1% founding‑team equity, modeled after high-performing AI-native investment banks.
• Backed by world-class venture capital including an early SpaceX investor and the founders behind SaaS giants like Canva and Notion.
• Access to proprietary AI systems (Sage and Sterling) that handle buyer matching and CIM prep, letting you focus entirely on closing deals.

What You Will Do

• Own the end-to-end deal lifecycle for 5-8 sell-side campaigns, driving transactions from client onboarding through to final negotiations and close.
• Run systematic, data-driven buyer outreach campaigns and manage high-stakes relationships with strategic acquirers and private equity firms.
• Act as the primary advisor for business owners in the building services and healthcare sectors, providing investment-bank-quality guidance during their most critical transitions.

The ideal candidate

• 3+ years of M&A advisory, investment banking, or corporate development experience with a proven track record of closing middle-market or SMB transactions.
• Strong client-facing confidence with the emotional intelligence required to shepherd 50-70 year old business owners through complex, high-stakes sales processes.
• A tech-forward mindset with an appetite for using AI tools and Notion to build scalable, automated systems rather than following traditional banking legacy workflows.
