• north vancouver bc 5 hours ago Full-time CA$120,000.00–CA$170,000.00 yearly Full-time Build and maintain a pipeline of acquisition targets aligned to the company's strategic priorities, through market mapping, competitive landscape monitoring, and thesis-driven target identification. Build and maintain a pipeline of acquisition targets aligned to the company's strategic priorities, through market mapping, competitive landscape monitoring, and thesis-driven target identification. Cultivate and manage relationships with investment bankers, brokers, and industry advisors so that the company sees relevant opportunities early. Conduct direct outreach and early-stage relationship development with founders and owners of prospective targets. Maintain disciplined pipeline records, including passed opportunities and the rationale for each, so the pipeline improves with every decision. Design, maintain, and apply a standardized screening and scoring methodology, approved by the leadership team, that rates every chance on consistent criteria: strategic fit, financial thresholds and return, technology and product considerations, integration complexity, and counterparty risk. No opportunity advances to leadership consideration without a score, and the score travels with the deal. Ensure accept and reject recommendations follow the scoring methodology and are supported by stated evidence. Build valuation and deal models for targets under active consideration, including scenario and sensitivity analysis, synergy assessment, and financing considerations. Coordinate financial due diligence and partner with Legal, Technology, and functional leaders on cross-functional diligence workstreams. Lead counterparty diligence on a target's principals and leadership team: reference checks,



background verification within applicable legal limits, litigation and reputation review, and a candid assessment of how the sellers are likely to behave as partners, employees, or earnout counterparties after close. Translate counterparty findings into deal structure: retention terms, earnout design, indemnification, and escrow recommendations, developed with legal counsel. Support deal structuring and negotiation with responsive analysis, and prepare leadership and board materials for investment decisions, anticipating the questions leadership will ask and answering them before they are asked. Build the integration budget for each transaction, with synergy realization and integration cost phasing over the post-close period. Support capital allocation analysis across competing uses of cash, including scenario and sensitivity analysis for investment decisions. Own the post-close integration plan for acquired companies, including the 100-day plan, workstream coordination across functional leaders, and escalation of blockers to the executive team. Strategic Alliances, Joint Ventures, and Commercial Partnerships Identify and structure strategic alliances (commercial, marketing, or technology-sharing agreements) that deliver a strategic objective without an acquisition, and present them to leadership on the same scoring basis as a purchase.



Evaluate and structure joint ventures where a shared market or product justifies a separate entity with a partner: economics, governance, contribution and exit terms, and the financial model of the venture itself. Lead the financial and commercial evaluation of major distribution, supply, and OEM agreements that expand market reach, in partnership with Sales and Product, including pricing, exclusivity, and minimum-commitment terms. Maintain the partnership pipeline alongside the acquisition pipeline, with the same records of passed opportunities and the rationale for each. Partner with the CEO, CFO, and CPO to maintain the company's 3-to-5-year growth blueprint, refreshed annually ahead of the operating plan, with the market landscapes and competitive analyses that determine where acquisition, partnership, and organic investment each apply. Translate the blueprint into the strategic priorities that govern the acquisition and partnership pipelines, so that origination effort follows strategy rather than deal flow. Capital Formation Support the CFO in raising debt or equity when the growth plan requires it, including private placements, secondary transactions, and credit facilities: financial model and use-of-proceeds analysis, lender and investor materials, data room preparation, and coordination of counsel and advisers. Maintain relationships with lenders and prospective investors alongside the banker and broker network, so that financing options are understood before they are needed. Corporate Development Function Building Establish the playbooks, screening criteria, deal templates, and pipeline infrastructure of a durable corporate development capability. As the function grows, hire, coach, and develop team members, and act as a coll
