Coordinate all aspects of the M&A process (e.g., due diligence, data rooms, internal updates), support M&A integration workstreams, and leverage suite of corporate development systems & tools.

Build a robust understanding of new customer segments, industry trends, market positioning, and emerging companies.

Deliver assignments and projects across Corporate Development and M&A Integration. Support post-acquisition integration efforts.

Develop external network of industry specialists to bring outside-in knowledge of market trends and opportunities.

What is Needed to Succeed:

BA/BS or equivalent experience from a top university in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Engineering or similar field. MBA or equivalent experience is preferred.

10+ years of exceptional financial modeling, interpersonal and project management skills.

High EQ with strategic business intuition with a heart for "Servant Leadership."

Executive presence - written and spoken communication skills.

Demonstrated experience 12+ years in investment banking, corporate development, venture capital, private equity, or similar environments.
