Deal Origination Executive - Corporate Finance
Title: Deal Origination Executive - Corporate Finance
Location: Manchester
Salary: £25k + Market leading bonus scheme
SJC Partners have been mandated by one of the North West's premier Corporate finance boutiques to recruit a recent graduate for a Deal Origination Executive position. They have completed on a number of transactions over the course of 2021 with an impressive pipeline of new deals currently and this hire is seen as critical to this next stage of their growth.
The firm focuses on the company sales side (with a specific focus on transactions between £5m and £25m) and the successful individual will take leadership of origination projects. As you progress you will take on increasing responsibility with regard to a number of areas:
- Leading key research and analysis regarding both acquisition activity in the market and specifically companies to target (this would cover doing specific sector research work).
- Playing a key role in qualifying a business as a client and making the initial contact with them.
- Providing key support/input to pitch documents.
- Pro-actively finding new sources of information for research.
- Maintaining and proactively using the company CRM system.
Some form of relevant work experience would help for the role but is by no means a pre-requisite - what is more important is that you are highly driven, tenacious individual with a strong desire to work in the world of Deals. Naturally you will be a high energy individual who will be pro-active in their approach to projects and the sourcing of new business opportunities.
Future career progression prospects are strong for the right individual - the role could offer the opportunity to build a dedicated origination team around themselves, or a future route into the execution side of the business.
