Manager - Deal Origination at Job Mobz

• Build and manage a high-volume pipeline of proprietary M&A opportunities in the software vertical, targeting transactions in the $50–$100MM range

• Own outbound deal origination: cold and warm outreach via email, phone, LinkedIn, and in-person at conferences and industry events

• Develop and maintain relationships with sell-side intermediaries — bankers, brokers, and advisors — at middle market and boutique M&A firms

• Identify, qualify, and engage directly with software company founders and owners who are not yet running a formal process

• Represent the firm professionally in all external interactions; you will be in rooms with CEOs, investment bankers, and M&A counsel

• Screen and prioritize inbound opportunities alongside the deal team

• Travel to trade shows, conferences, target company meetings, and networking events — including on short notice

• Maintain accurate pipeline tracking and activity reporting in CRM (Salesforce or equivalent)

• Partner with investment principals to refine targeting criteria, develop thesis-driven outreach campaigns, and iterate on sourcing strategy

• 4–6 years of experience in investment banking (software/technology M&A strongly preferred), corporate development at a fund or PE-backed company, or a senior business development role with direct M&A exposure

• A track record of closing deals — not just a part of working on deals that closed, but actually hands on closing them yourself.

• Genuine business development experience: email campaigns, conference attendance, cold outreach, and relationship-building — not just execution support

• Deep familiarity with middle market M&A mechanics, deal structuring, and the intermediary landscape

• Exceptional interpersonal skills — you are charismatic, credible, and comfortable representing a firm at the highest levels

• A scrappy, self-starting mentality; you set your own pace and it is fast

• Must be based in the US or Canada
