Business Acquisition Partner

Acquisition Network

Job Description

Job Description

Business Acquisition Partner (Program Applicant) – The Acquisition Network

Company: The Acquisition Network
Location: Remote
Job Type: Contract / Program Participation (Paid Service)

About The Acquisition Network

The Acquisition Network is a global platform that empowers entrepreneurs, operators, and professionals to acquire profitable small businesses with confidence. Our team brings 10+ years of buy-side M&A experience , with a track record of helping operators across the world identify, evaluate, negotiate, and acquire companies that generate strong cash flow and long-term value.

We combine data-driven deal sourcing, private lending partnerships, and remote management systems to help clients become owners—not operators—of multiple profitable companies .
Our platform supports every stage of the acquisition journey, including:

  • Investment thesis development

  • Deal sourcing and outbound search

  • Financial modeling and valuation

  • Negotiation and due diligence

  • Capital introductions

  • Strategic planning and operational support

We exist to help ambitious professionals enter or scale in the world of small-business acquisition without navigating the search alone.

About the Opportunity

Are you an operator, ETA searcher, search fund professional, or acquisition-minded professional looking to buy a business—but lacking the time, deal flow, or M&A expertise to do it efficiently?

The Acquisition Network is accepting applications for our Business Acquisition Partner Program — a paid service where our experienced team finds, vets, negotiates, and supports your acquisition , helping you become a business owner with a proven team behind you.

This posting is not an employment role. It is an opportunity to pre-qualify for an exclusive acquisition program where you partner with our team to acquire and manage a profitable company.

What the Program Includes (Paid Service) End-to-End Acquisition Support
  • Custom Investment Thesis & Acquisition Roadmap

  • Proprietary Deal Sourcing (inbound + outbound)

  • Comprehensive M&A Analysis & Financial Modeling

  • Valuation, Negotiation, LOI & APA Support

  • Access to Private Lenders and Capital Partners

  • Strategic Planning & Management Consulting

  • Installation of Remote/Local Management Teams

We handle sourcing, analysis, negotiations, and infrastructure—so you can focus on becoming a business owner.

Who This Is For

Ideal for professionals who want to acquire a business within the next 6–12 months:

  • Business Operators & General Managers

  • ETA Searchers & Search Fund Professionals

  • Corporate Leaders & Managers

  • Investment, Banking, and Consulting Professionals

  • Entrepreneurs seeking cash-flowing acquisitions

  • First-time buyers with capital or access to financing

You do not need M&A experience—just the drive to own and scale a business.

Qualifications
  • 5+ years of leadership, operations, finance, entrepreneurship, or business experience

  • Strong motivation to acquire and operate (or oversee) a small business

  • Ability to fund or finance an acquisition (we help with lending partners)

  • Willingness to collaborate closely with our acquisition team

Compensation

This is not a salaried position.
Participants pay for The Acquisition Network’s acquisition services, deal sourcing, and management infrastructure.

Why Apply
  • Acquire a profitable business faster and more efficiently

  • Reduce risk through vetted deal flow and expert due diligence

  • Access lenders, private capital, and deal-negotiation support

  • Build long-term wealth as an owner—not just an operator

  • Benefit from a proven system and experienced team behind you

How to Apply

Apply now to see if you pre-qualify for the Business Acquisition Partner Program.
Eligible applicants will be contacted for an initial consultation to review fit, capital readiness, and timeline.
