Vice President Mergers and Acquisitions

$225k - $285k

JBT Marel

Responsibilities Define and lead the company’s corporate development strategy, identifying and prioritizing acquisition targets, minority investments, large strategic partnerships, and joint ventures that support long‑term growth objectives. Build, develop, and manage a robust M&A pipeline in close collaboration with operating unit leaders, ensuring alignment between deal activity and business priorities. Lead all aspects of M&A transactions — from origination, target screening and valuation, through negotiation, deal structuring, documentation and closing. Drive comprehensive due diligence processes across financial, commercial, operational, legal, and regulatory dimensions, coordinating cross‑functional teams and external advisors. Own financial modeling and valuation analyses (e.g., discounted cash flow, comparable multiples, accretion/dilution) to support investment decisions and deal structuring. Support post‑merger integration efforts by ensuring deal rationale, value drivers, and strategic objectives identified during due diligence are clearly handed off and tracked through to realization. Monitor the performance of completed transactions against strategic and financial targets. Prepare and contribute to executive‑level materials and presentations when evaluating acquisitions, investments, divestitures, and partnerships. Build and manage relationships with investment banks, advisors, private equity firms, and other external partners relevant to the M&A ecosystem. Track market trends, competitive dynamics, and industry developments to proactively identify new opportunities and inform the strategic agenda. Qualifications Master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA) or equivalent advanced degree required. Minimum 8 years of progressive experience in corporate development, M&A, investment banking, or private equity, with a strong track record of leading transactions from origination to close. Demonstrated experience in the industrial, manufacturing, or advanced technology sectors strongly preferred. Proven ability to lead complex, cross‑functional deal processes including due diligence, valuation, negotiation, and post‑merger integration. Experience working directly with senior executives and boards in a strategic advisory capacity. Prior experience building or managing small teams and/or leveraging shared resources across functions. Advanced financial modeling and valuation skills, including discounted cash flow, leveraged buyout model, comparable company and precedent transaction analysis. Strong commercial instincts and strategic mindset, with the ability to assess market dynamics, competitive positioning, and long‑term value creation potential and translate that into executable plans and outcomes. Solid understanding of deal structures, M&A legal and regulatory frameworks, and accounting fundamentals. Location Onsite in the Chicago office of JBT Marel. Work Authorization Must be able to work in the US without company sponsorship now or in the future. Salary Estimated annual salary range: $225,000 - $285,000. Starting salary will vary by location, qualifications, and prior experience. Benefits Medical, dental, life insurance, short‑term and long‑term disability, family leave, vision coverage. Matched 401(k) plan. Commitment to Diversity Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging is a fundamental value to JBT Marel and a critical driver of our success. The company is dedicated to achieving DEIB goals through thoughtful, focused, and sustained effort. Equal Opportunity Employment JBT Marel provides equal employment opportunity to all employees and qualified applicants for employment. The company will not tolerate discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, veteran status, citizenship, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local laws.
