This boutique M&A advisory firm guides founder-led businesses through the most significant transition of their lives: selling their company. The mission is to protect legacies, maximize value, and create long-term success for clients and their communities.

Do you thrive on solving complex problems? Are you a high performer who's intrinsically motivated and eager to lead? Do you enjoy meaningful client interaction, mentorship, and the challenge of running deals from start to finish, without the pressure to source them yourself? If this sounds like you, we'd love to connect.

Working exclusively in the lower middle market, guiding founder-led businesses through the divestiture process with a relationship-driven approach; we are looking for a Vice President to take over an established role and continue driving high-quality mandates forward as we refine and enhance our deal execution team.

The Opportunity:

Lead with Impact

• Take ownership of sell-side mandates from inception to close
• Work directly with lawyers, accountants, bankers, and internal team members
• Guide clients through valuation, marketing, due diligence, and negotiation
• Own the deal lifecycle: valuation, CIM creation, buyer list development, negotiations, and diligence
  

Team Leadership & Strategy

• Manage and mentor a small team with a focus on skills development and execution
• Refine internal processes and shape our M&A methodologies
• Collaborate with partners to meet quarterly and annual goals

Relationship Building

• Focus on buyer-side pipeline development (no deal origination required)
• Help deepen the network of buyers and COIs

What We're Looking For

• 7–12 years' experience in M&A, investment banking, corporate development, or boutique advisory
  
• 10+ completed deals, with at least 3 where you led the process
  
• Professional designation (CPA, CFA, or CBV required); MBA preferred
  
• Strong financial acumen—you can normalize and explain financials
  
• Expertise in lower middle market transactions (sub-$100M EV)
  
• Excellent communicator who inspires trust with clients and one who mentors well and collaborates easily
  
• An analytical thinker who loves solving problems and managing complexity

• Comfortable navigating challenging conversations, deal dynamics, and high-stakes negotiations with poise and professionalism

Bonus Points If You…

• Have experience in public accounting or banking
  
• Have exited big-firm life and are seeking something entrepreneurial
  
• Come with an existing buyer network
  

What You'll Love:

• Autonomy + Support: You'll lead your files with full ownership, backed by a supportive team
• Growth-Oriented Culture: We prioritize learning, leadership, and professional development
• Hybrid Work Environment: Flexibility with a balance of in-office collaboration and remote execution
• Compensation That Reflects Output: Competitive salary, bonus, and performance-based upside
• Values-Driven Team: We're high trust, low ego, and serious about doing great work with great people
