We're partnering with a fast-scaling, private equity-backed software group to hire an M&A Director who will help drive its next phase of acquisitive growth.
Backed by a well-regarded mid-market PE house, the company has grown rapidly through a mix of organic momentum and an active, proven acquisition track record. It sits in a large, fragmented corner of the UK software market and is now looking to build out its in-house deal capability.
This is a hands-on, close-to-the-C-suite position, centred on sourcing, executing and bedding down acquisitions that fit the group's growth strategy.
