We find, vet and match buyers to the right business for their skills, goals and lifestyle, then stay with them through the offer, the financing and the close. Most of our clients are buying for the first time. Every one of them is putting their own money into a $2M to $12M business financed with an SBA loan. You are an acquisition matchmaker. Every business a client sees has been through you: screened after the AI pass, checked against who the client actually is, not just their deal box, written up so a first-time buyer can understand it and decide, and chased with the broker until the questions are answered. The advisor owns the client. You own the match: what reaches them, how good it is, and how fast it gets there. This is not a spreadsheet seat. You pick up the phone with brokers, you sit in on client calls to learn what moves people and what kills deals, and you give the deal team the feedback that makes next week's matches better than this week's. ## What you will be doing - **Own deal flow.** Every client at or above their minimum every month. The standard is two well-matched deals per client per month, minimum. The goal is one a week that the client wants to sink their teeth into. Anything less and the client feels it, and the advisor can't do their job. When a client's flow is thin, that's yours to fix with the coordinators and team. - **Own deal intake.** Review what comes out of the AI screen and kill what won't work before the team spends time on an RFI. The quality of the whole pipeline starts here. - **Know the client, not just the deal box.** Skills, operator profile, risk tolerance, lifestyle, what they said they want their life to look like. A deal that fits the numbers and not the person is a pass, and you say why. - **Run the DWS process.** The write-up specialists and coordinators produce the volume. You set the standard, screen their CIM reviews and write-ups before they go out, and give the feedback that raises the fit. When coverage is short, you write them yourself. - **Write so a first-time buyer gets it.** Every write-up is clear, jargon-free and tells the client what matters and what to do next. Clients with less deal fluency should finish reading and know exactly where they stand. - **Make the broker calls.** First contact on every vetted deal. Get the context the CIM doesn't have, get the questions answered, and put it in the write-up so the client picks up where you left off. Phone when that's what the broker wants. - **First pass on the financials.** Flag what matters for lending and for the acquisition: add-backs that won't hold, working capital, concentration, DSCR, what's missing from the package. Then flag the way through. You know what's normal at this size, you research the industry when you don't, and you don't kill a good deal by listing every wrinkle as a risk. - **First pass on client models.** When a client sends a model ahead of an LOI, check it: assumptions, add-backs, debt service, whether the offer it supports is the offer they're about to make. Notes to the advisor so their time with the client goes to the decision, not the errors. - **Keep deals moving.** Chase every open question, manage the broker, and keep the deal live until the advisor and client take it. Days from listing to inbox are yours. - **Refine the scorecard.** Keep it accurate on every deal and improve it. When a client passes on a 9, find out what it missed and fix it. - **Sit in on select client calls.** Learn what each client wants, what kills their deals and what moves them. It makes your matches better and it makes you the person who can step up when needed. - **Stay current on SBA.** Rules, lender trends, what changed this quarter and what it does to our clients' deals. - **Make the process better.** You'll see what's slow before anyone else. Say so, and fix what you can. ## What this seat takes - **A matchmaker's eye.** You read a business and a person and know whether they belong together. The numbers are where you start, not where you stop. - **Financial fluency.** SDE and EBITDA, DSCR, working capital, valuation, SBA deal mechanics. Reading between the lines of a CIM, connecting the dots between financial statements. - **Small-business judgment.** What's normal at this size and what isn't. Customers, contracts, licenses, the owner's role, barriers to entry. The difference between a deal-killer and a negotiating point. - **Excellent writer.** You take a complicated concept and make it plain without making it wrong. Your write-ups are the client's first real look at a business, and they read like a trusted friend explained it. - **People read.** Enough EQ to get a broker to tell you what's really going on, and enough to understand why a client lit up on one deal and went quiet on another. - **Ownership.** You don't wait for the task. You see the gap in a client's deal flow and you close it. - **Team player, hard core on details and deadlines.** You do what you say. The coordinators always know where every deal stands because you told them, not because they asked. Nothing slips because you were busy. - **Experience.** Two or more years in M&A, consulting, search, investment banking, corporate development, lending or similar, inside real transactions. - **Tech and AI-powered.** HubSpot, Slack, Zoom and Google Workspace, alongside Claude or GPT, used to make you better, not doing your work for you. ## How you will be measured Every client at or above minimum deal flow, monthly. Deal velocity, the speed you move deals from listing to clients. Write-ups out on time, to standard, with the broker call done. Client models reviewed within 24 hours with notes to the advisor. Scorecard accuracy: fewer passes on high scores. Intake quality: fewer bad deals reaching the team, which shows up as less CIM wastage. ## Where this leads Two potential paths. Associate, where you take on your own client relationships alongside the deal work, and from there Advisor. Or Senior Analyst and Team Lead, where you run the deal team: the specialists, the coordinators, the process. There's a lot of room here, and the people who take it are the ones who show up for the team every day. ## Compensation and benefits - Base $90K to $100K per year, depending on experience. - OTE (on-target earnings) of $105K to $125K. - Competitive benefits that support a high-performance, people-first culture. ## Meet AcquiMatch AcquiMatch is an acquisition matchmaking firm for people buying a business.
