Position Description

FOG Software Group is looking for an M&A Business Development Manager to join our Mergers & Acquisitions deal sourcing team. We are looking for a Manager that is based in Germany and will work closely with a team based in Germany, as well as colleagues in Toronto, Canada. The Manager will take on the critical functions of sourcing, qualifying, nurturing and managing a pipeline of acquisition opportunities, supporting the M&A team's goal of acquiring software companies. The software companies contacted will primarily be located in the DACH region, but occasionally in other countries across Europe/globally.

The Manager will build relationships with C-suite executives, business owners, investment bankers, private equity and venture capital funds, and other senior leaders across a variety of industries around the world. The role has a direct and measurable impact on the organization with the opportunity to participate in investment and strategic decisions as part of a high energy, fast paced and entrepreneurial team.

The ideal candidate should possess 4-7 years of relevant experience in sales development or business development (including deal sourcing and pitching), with a proven track record of thriving and surpassing targets in a fast-paced enterprise SaaS sales or deal sourcing environment.

This is a remote role, where there will be an expectation of travel from time-to-time (e.g., to conferences / visiting prospects or to Canada for occasional training/meetings), but the majority of work will take place remotely.

Experience in M&A, Private Equity, Venture Capital, or Investment Banking is a plus, but not required.
