MH2909
A publicly listed, highly acquisitive digital entertainment platform is looking to build out its Corporate Development capability with the addition of a Corporate Development / M&A Analyst.
The role will sit within the M&A function, supporting a predominantly buy-side acquisition strategy. Initially, the focus will be on the technical and analytical workload across transactions, with the opportunity to develop into a broader Corporate Development role covering deal execution, target assessment and wider strategic initiatives.
This is a strong opportunity for a junior Investment Banker or M&A professional looking to make the move in-house and gain broader exposure across the acquisition lifecycle.
