Private Equity Portfolio Company
Our client is a private equity portfolio company, pursuing a highly successful buy and build / platform strategy in the leisure services/maritime sector. With a European HQ and locations spread throughout the Mediterranean, we are now seeking an experienced M&A Director to continue the acquisition strategy for the next 3 - 5 years.
Description
The duties and responsibilities for this Buy & Build M&A Director role will involve lots of travel, both to the company’s HQ, but also to visit and assess acquisition opportunities. Managing a small team, you will be responsible for coordinating and leading all aspects of acquisition identification, outreach, meeting with business owners, structuring and negotiating deals and delivering the roll up strategy.
Skills
The ideal candidate for this Buy & Build M&A Director role will have trained in investment banking M&A and will now work with an investor mindset, either from within a private equity firm, or within an acquisitive company’s corporate development/M&A team. Operating at Director level, you will be well versed in negotiating, structuring and closing investments. Relevant sector experience will involve businesses with assets and a leisure aspect. Mediterranean languages, a willingness to travel frequently and an interest in maritime/leisure sectors will all be very useful attributes.
