At AcquiMatch, we help incredible professionals become business owners—changing lives and building legacies. But transforming an industry takes focus, strategy, and momentum. That’s where you come in.
Your mission is to keep our Founder, Athena operating at her highest level by clearing the path, removing the noise, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. You are the force multiplier—the steady presence who keeps everything moving, ensuring Athena’s time is spent where it matters most: driving growth, shaping strategy, and scaling the company.
This is not just about managing calendars or answering emails. You are Athena’s Donna to Harvey Specter—her strategic partner, trusted confidante, and unwavering supporter. You anticipate what needs to happen before it’s even asked, act as a sounding board, and ensure operations, communications, and relationships run seamlessly.
You will often speak and act on Athena’s behalf—putting your business leader hat on to represent her voice, priorities, and vision. Whether engaging with clients, managing key relationships, or making executive decisions in her absence, you bring a blend of authority, tact, and strategic thinking.
You will have a front-row seat to high-level business strategy, decision-making, and execution. You’ll see how companies scale, how deals get done, and play a vital role in making it all happen. You are the shield and enforcer, the balance of tact and decisiveness, ensuring Athena stays focused on what moves the business forward.
This is a high-stakes, high-impact position that requires adaptability, problem-solving, and a sharp instinct for priorities. If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love bringing order to chaos, and want to work alongside a founder who is scaling something big, this is for you.

ABOUT OUR FOUNDER
Athena Simpson is the founder of AcquiMatch and has over 25 years of experience as an entrepreneur, advisor, and high-performance expert across media, marketing, events, and strategic business operations.
From launching her own businesses to mentoring and advising startups, Fortune 500, FTSE 100 companies, and government entities, and lecturing at The University of Texas at Austin McCombs School of Business, Athena has cultivated a deep understanding of business dynamics and growth potential.
Her journey led her to acquire profitable businesses through her company, Unrestricted Ventures. Through her struggles to find businesses to buy, she started AcquiMatch, a personalized SMB acquisition search & match service.
Athena often says, "business is my love language," and she applies a matchmaker philosophy to business buying, helping clients find businesses that match their desires and build their own legacy.
AcquiMatch is a dynamic startup at the forefront of Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA). We make business buying simpler, smarter, and more accessible, connecting ambitious professionals with perfect acquisition opportunities.
With a growing client base and a waitlist that speaks for itself, we are leading the ETA space, helping first-time buyers navigate the complexities of acquisition with a white-glove, concierge-level service. Our approach is personal, bespoke, and built on proven success.
If you're ready to be part of a fast-scaling team that is redefining an industry and making entrepreneurial dreams a reality, this is the role for you.
If you’re excited to help first-time buyers become successful business owners, and ready to guide them through one of the most transformative journeys of their lives, we’d love to hear from you.
