M&A Business Development Manager (m/f/d) - GSA. Schaffhausen

Zusammenfassung:

How would you like to join one of the world’s most prolific and successful software acquirers – and help take us to the next level? Modaxo is the people transportation division within Constellation Software Inc. (TSE:CSU), which owns more than 1,000 businesses – and has never sold a single one of them.

As an acquirer, Modaxo presents a unique proposition: we offer a forever home, absolute autonomy, genuine long-term stability – and a singular focus on people transportation.

This makes Modaxo an incredibly attractive proposition for any business interested in selling – which is why we have grown to almost 30 brands since launching in 2020, and why we now wish to bolster our existing M&A team with an M&A Business Development Manager (m/f/d) for the DACH region.

Our Role:

We require a M&A Corporate Business Development Manager (m/f/d) to focus mainly on the DACH region as part of our European M&A team. Reporting to the M&A Business Development Manager (m/f/d), you will work closely with our EMEA Leadership, Business Unit Leaders and the EMEA M&A team to identify and drive potential opportunities for acquisition.

This is a full-time, fully remote role focusing on the DACH region. It would be ideally suited to someone already based in this region, or in Italy (or other a nearby country) with the ability to travel regularly. You will be responsible for identifying new business opportunities, building and maintaining relationships with clients and partners, and developing and implementing growth strategies. Key elements:

- Identify and analyse businesses within a defined sector and region to determine appropriate acquisition target candidates based on specific company characteristics

- Develop and conduct prospecting campaigns to attract potential acquisition targets and identify interesting technology businesses through email, outbound calling, attendance at trade shows and conferences

- Lead conversations towards the signing of NDAs, obtaining operational data, and initiating M&A conversations

- Build professional and personable relationships with acquisition targets (inc. C-Suite or business owner), communicating Modaxo’s unique combination of people transportation focus and buy-and-hold forever acquisition methodology

- Continually manage, maintain, and develop our Salesforce CRM proprietary database of acquisition targets and contacts to build a future pipeline of potential acquisition targets

We're looking for:

- Previous M&A experience (particularly deal origination)

- Interest in software technology / business particularly “SaaS”

- Energetic, personable, driven, self-motivated and results-oriented

- Advanced verbal and written communication skills with the ability and confidence to initiate and develop relationships with senior executives, lawyers, brokers, and investment bankers, and build relationships with these individuals

- Strong data management (e.g. Salesforce CSRM tools) & analysis skills

- Strong relationship-building skills, and the ability to flex personal style to adapt to different personalities

- Fluency in German and English is essential

Our Offer:

- Come and be part of a truly world class M&A organisation

- Make a difference: we buy, improve and grow the businesses that are driving global sustainable and inclusive mobility

- Enjoy flexibility: we combine the advantages of an international corporation and the agility of a medium-sized company

- Visibility: Modaxo is great at identifying, rewarding and developing strong performers

- Growth: Internationally or locally, within Modaxo or our parent group, we offer a broad range of growth opportunities

- Attractive salary and benefits package
