The Group

We are an independent advisory group structured around three complementary verticals, positioned in high-value markets with a selective and confidential approach.

M&A;: Mergers & Acquisitions Advisory. A new-generation firm specializing in the small & lower mid-cap segment: technical, technology, industrial and services businesses. We support executives and shareholders in their divestitures, acquisitions and build-up operations, with an approach centered on structuring, targeted exposure and disciplined execution.

Real Estate & Tangible Assets. Advisory and transactions on assets with strong strategic value: investment real estate, commercial property, tangible assets and off-market operations, serving entrepreneurs, investors and wealth structures.

Wealth: Asset & Capital Structuring. Wealth engineering, holding structuring, long-term allocation and capital organization, for executives, entrepreneurs and investors.

Our DNA: rigor and discretion, selectivity in both deals and partners, long-term relationships built on trust, a methodology inspired by premium advisory standards, and absolute confidentiality, without intrusive commercial outreach.

The Role

As part of our international development, we are seeking a Partner capable of founding, structuring and leading our Canada office. The office can be established in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa, Quebec City, Edmonton, Winnipeg or any other market where you already hold a genuine network. We build around the partner, not around a postcode.

Canada holds a broad base of owner-managed industrial,



technical and services companies in the midst of an unprecedented ownership transition, alongside a mature commercial real estate market and a well-developed holding and wealth structuring culture. Cross-border flows with the United States and Europe are constant, and the francophone axis in Quebec offers a natural bridge with the Group's European practice.

This is not a representative position, but an entrepreneurial mandate: you drive the Group's development across your territory, cultivate relationships with executives and investors in the region, and build your own team as the office scales.

Key Responsibilities

- Establish and develop the Canada office across the Group's three verticals
- Represent the Group with executives, entrepreneurs, investors, family offices and wealth structures
- Identify and initiate opportunities in M&A;, strategic real estate and wealth structuring
- Qualify deals and coordinate their handling with specialized internal teams
- Build relationships within the Canadian ecosystem (chartered and regional banks, credit unions and Desjardins network, private equity and credit funds, CPA and law firms, wealth managers, referral partners) and with the international investor community active in the market




- Recruit and progressively structure a local team
- Act as a trusted advisor, not a conventional commercial intermediary

Profile Sought

Above all, we are looking for a posture and a network, rather than a standard CV.

- Senior experience in M&A;, corporate finance, banking, real estate, wealth management or corporate leadership
- An active, qualified network of decision-makers, entrepreneurs or investors in Canada
- Ideally a strong understanding of owner-managed business and succession dynamics, commercial and investment real estate, holding structuring, and inbound and outbound cross-border capital flows toward the United States and Europe
- High personal credibility and ease in confidential, high-stakes environments
- Business-level English, French a significant asset for the Quebec market and for coordination with the Group
- Entrepreneurial mindset, autonomy and a strong sense of responsibility
- The ambition to build a lasting structure, rather than occupy a straightforward deal-sourcing role

Collaboration Model

- Founding Office Partner status (structure partner / associate partner)
- Attractive compensation, predominantly variable, indexed to the actual success of operations
- No income ceiling
- Prospect of partnership and equity participation based on involvement and results
- Access to an established structure, recognized expertise and a pipeline of qualified deals
- Autonomy to structure your territory and build your team
- Integration into a discreet, selective and international advisory ecosystem
