M&A Associate | Own Your Deals from A to Z | Independent M&A Boutique | Brussels
After a few years in pure M&A, Transaction Services or investment banking, you know how to spot a solid file from the first call, you know when a process stalls because nobody is pushing it, and you know what it feels like to carry out due diligence without ever seeing the rest of the deal. What you have not had yet, is a seat at the table from A to Z, in a firm that invests in you for tomorrow rather than for an immediate return.
That is this role.
This independent M&A advisory firm has been active for more than twenty years in the small and mid-cap segment. The team stays deliberately human-sized, with seniors directly involved on every file rather than a classic pyramid structure. You join a team of specialists working directly with partners and management across the full deal.
Your impact as M&A Associate
- Building industry and company analysis materials to support the origination process
- Identifying potential buyers or acquisition targets, on both sell-side and buy-side
- Building valuation models, DCF, listed comparables, precedent transactions
- Managing the client relationship throughout the execution process
- Contributing to lead and prospect generation for the business development team
You are less and less an executor of the process, and more and more an actor in the deal.
Your profile as M&A Associate
- Masters in finance, economics or management, strong academic track record
- 4 to 8 years of experience in M&A, Transaction Services, investment banking or private equity
- Strong financial modeling, valuation and financial statement analysis skills
- Fluent in French and English, knowledge of Dutch is a plus
OFFER
- Salary up to €84,000 gross/year, depending on experience
- Company car with fuel card
- Meal vouchers, €8/day
- Net expense allowance up to €200/month
- Bonus system
- Group and hospitalization insurance
- Hybrid work possible
- Training and development tailored to becoming a recognized expert in M&A advisory
- Key contributor at every stage of the transaction, exposure to multiple sectors
- Direct access to management and partners, with real ownership on files, in a firm run by its own partners rather than an external structure
- Proprietary network of 700 investors and 1,650 strategic players, plus international reach
