Hello and welcome! If you are interested in joining a fast growing, recently funded company where you will own a well compensated role and a meaningful stake - this is for you.
DealFlowAgent is the first AI-native M&A advisory firm helping owners of essential services businesses sell for higher valuations in shorter timeframes.
We are the first firm of our kind that specialises on working with business owners in essential service sectors such as building services. This includes sub niches such as fire safety, HVAC, security, electrical, pest control, landscaping and plumbing and other installation and maintenance firms. Essential service also includes niche healthcare businesses such as specialist clinics (dentists, vets, chiropractors) and care homes. In parallel, we have a fast growing network of active business buyers ready to meet these business owners.
We have recently raised $750,000 in seed funding and are backed by investors behind companies including Uber (4000x uplift from seed to IPO), Canva, SpaceX and 40+ unicorns.
Your Job Role
- You will be an end to end dealmaker role, not a back-room analyst role.
- You will own sell-side campaigns end to end for business owners selling companies they have often spent decades building. You will be client-facing, buyer-facing and responsible for keeping transactions moving from onboarding through to close.
- The role suits someone who has real transaction experience, enjoys buyer management, builds trust quickly with founders and wants more upside than a traditional advisory seat can offer.
What You’ll Do
- 60 to 80% of the work you used to do manually is automated through our propietary 'AI Deal Concierge'. This allows you to manage a portfolio of sell-side clients across the full transaction process, including onboarding, valuation work, buyer strategy, deal preparation, buyer outreach, pipeline management, diligence, negotiation and close.
- You will review and improve CIMs, teasers, buyer lists and deal materials produced with support from our internal systems. The goal is not to replace judgement with technology. The goal is to remove low-value admin so you can spend more time advising clients, managing buyers and driving competitive tension.
- You will work directly with business owners, many aged 40 to 85, who are making one of the biggest decisions of their lives. That means you need warmth, commercial judgement, patience, structure and the confidence to push back when needed.
What Good Looks Like
- You probably have 3 to 20 years of transaction experience across M&A advisory, corporate finance, investment banking, business brokerage, corporate development, private equity, or another deal-heavy environment.
- You do not need to have held the exact title before. What matters is that you have been close to real transactions and understand how deals move, stall and close.
Strong candidates will have evidence of:
• Managing clients, buyers, sellers, investors, or senior stakeholders directly
• Working on sell-side or buy-side transactions with real responsibility
• Running or supporting buyer outreach, buyer qualification and pipeline management
• Communicating clearly with business owners and senior decision-makers
• Following up fast and keeping multiple moving parts under control
• Staying organised without needing constant supervision
• Being low ego, hands-on and willing to get stuck into the details
• Being open to using AI tools and systems to improve the M&A process
AI experience is useful, but it is not the main requirement. The main requirement is that you are a credible deal person who is open-minded, organised and fast-moving.
Compensation
The package is designed for someone who wants meaningful upside.
- Base salary: £72k to £80k for Senior M&A Advisor and £80k to £90k for Head of M&A. Could be higher for the right candidate.
- Commission 10% to 15% per closed deal, depending on involvement and performance
- Realistic OTE £250,000 in year 1. Could be north of £450k if exceptional.
- Equity: meaningful EMI options, 3-year vest, 3-month cliff, full acceleration on exit. It's unheard of to start earning equity after a short period of time but we want you to get access to equity options soon so you can be really part of the company and share in its success.
Our target deal range is typically £2M to £50M enterprise value, with advisory fees (revenue) ranging from £80k to £700k per deal. One of the many exciting aspects of the role and company is that we are systemising the process so we can more predictable timelines e.g. 12 to 20 weeks end to end.
Location
- UK-based candidates are preferred - although we are expanding to the USA eventually. London based office 1 to 3 days per week is ideal.
- We care more about quality than postcode, but regular access to London is a strong advantage because this is a founding-team role.
Apply If
- Apply if you are a hands-on deal professional who wants to help build a category defining M&A advisory firm from the ground up.
- If this role feels slightly too senior or slightly too junior, apply anyway if you have real transaction experience, strong client confidence and the appetite to own deals end to end.
- Not essential but ideally you've had some exposure and knowledge M&A deal making in our target market niches such as building services (including fire safety, HVAC, security, electrical, pest control, landscaping and plumbing and other installation and maintenance firms. Essential service also includes niche healthcare businesses)
- Do not apply if you only want a pure Analyst role, dislike buyer outreach, avoid client conversations, or need a highly structured corporate environment to do your best work.
Thank you! We very much look forward to seeing your applications. If in doubt, still apply. we are building a massive company, and you're going to play an important role. If you're looking for autonomy, responsibility, and what we believe will be a very lucrative position, and if you want to help us define a new category in the M&A industry, then apply
