About this role

We are hiring a Search Fund & Acquisition Sourcing Associate to build proprietary deal flow for small-business acquisitions. This role emphasizes disciplined market mapping, owner outreach, and pipeline management rather than financial modeling alone.

Responsibilities

• Turn investment themes into precise target-company criteria and searchable market maps.

• Research fragmented industries, identify owner-operated businesses, and enrich decision-maker data.

• Write personalized outreach that demonstrates real knowledge of the company and owner.

• Run multi-channel sequences and conduct early qualification calls.

• Maintain accurate pipeline stages, notes, follow-ups, and disqualification reasons.

• Measure performance by qualified owner conversations and actionable opportunities, not raw email volume.

Requirements

• Based in Latin America with professional English; Spanish or Portuguese fluency preferred.

• 1–3 years in search funds, private equity, investment banking, corporate development, executive search, B2B sales, or comparable sourcing work.

• Strong research judgment, concise writing, and persistent but respectful follow-through.

• Advanced Google Sheets or Excel skills and comfort working from a CRM every day.

Helpful but not required

• Prior search-fund internship or lower-middle-market transaction exposure.

• Experience with Clay, Apollo, PitchBook, Capital IQ, Grata, HubSpot, or Affinity.

• A work sample showing how you mapped a market or sourced hard-to-find companies.
