  • Lead the M&A team, offering support and nurturing their development, while guiding them towards optimum performance
  • Maintain trusted relationships with stakeholders, including brokers, legal advisors, internal deal teams, and brand senior leadership teams

    • You will bring:

  • At least 5 years of experience in M&A, with deal origination and execution from a corporate or advisory perspective
  • Experience sourcing a pipeline of inbound and outbound deals, coupled with comprehensive oversight of deal execution
  • Senior stakeholder management skills, with a consultative and collaborative approach that is free from ego
  • Hands-on experience in deal modelling, evaluating opportunities, and scrutinising commercial terms in legal documents
  • Experience in aligning bolt-on deal structures with broader brand incentives, coupled with the ability to foster a culture that encourages the right behaviours within the organisation
  • A commitment to maintaining and enhancing our focus on automation and standardisation
  • A passion for contributing to and promoting the sustainable growth of Next 15, recognising that acquisitions have been a central part of our story
  • A commitment to ethical practices, ensuring that our acquisitions align with our core values, including our sustainable growth agenda and commitment to diversity.

    • And in return, Next 15 offers:

  • Excellent salary
  • 6% matched pension contributions
  • 30 days annual leave
  • Green Car scheme that saves you up to 40% on the cost of driving an electric car with a wide variety of cars to choose from
