About the Opportunity:
FE International is seeking an experienced, entrepreneurially minded partner to join our global advisory network. This is not a traditional employment role, but a partner-driven opportunity for high-performing Managing Directors, Directors, or Senior Vice Presidents to originate and execute MA and capital advisory engagements under the FE International brand, leveraging the Firm’s established infrastructure, brand, and global reach.
As a Partner, you will operate with a high degree of autonomy while benefiting from centralized deal support, marketing, legal, and buyer outreach teams. You’ll bring deep relationships across private equity, venture capital, family offices, and strategic buyers, and will lead transactions end-to-end with full control over your client relationships and compensation structure.
Your Role as a Strategic Partner:
- Business Origination: Source new clients and deal flow from your network, targeting founder-led companies, institutional investors, family offices, and corporate sellers primarily in software, e-commerce, and technology.
- Transaction Leadership: Lead execution of buy-side, sell-side, and capital raise mandates including valuation, strategic positioning, negotiations, due diligence coordination, and closing.
- Client Advisory: Act as the client’s lead strategic advisor, helping define exit strategies, capital structuring, and positioning for acquirers and investors.
- Collaborative Execution: Work alongside FE International’s internal teams (marketing, financial analysis, CRM, buyer development, and legal) to deliver best-in-class outcomes.
- Platform Contribution: Participate in firm growth initiatives, knowledge sharing, and help elevate the Firm’s reputation and standards.
What Makes This a Partnership:
- Entrepreneurial Flexibility: You own the client relationship and can shape your practice focus (sector, stage, geography).
- Compensation Structure: Commission-based with performance tiers, equity-like participation options, and tiered revenue share potential as production scales.
- Infrastructure Access: Use of FE’s internal CRM, marketing engine, vetted buyer database, and global brand positioning.
- Global Footprint, Local Autonomy: Operate independently or in collaboration with other partners across regions.
Ideal Background:
- 12+ years of experience in investment banking, corporate development, private equity, or MA advisory.
- Managing Director, Director, or Senior VP level with a consistent track record of originating and closing MA or capital placement deals.
- Experience across verticals such as SaaS, Fintech, Marketplaces, or Tech-enabled Services is highly valued.
- Proven ability to build and manage client relationships at the C-suite, founder, and board level.
- Mastery of deal mechanics including valuation modeling (DCF, LBO, comps, precedent transactions), structuring, and negotiation.
Tools Skills:
- Deep understanding of strategic and financial analysis, capital markets, and transactional workflows.
- Familiarity with Capital IQ, PitchBook, Bloomberg, and private market data platforms.
- High emotional intelligence, business acumen, and the ability to advise clients through complex, high-stakes decisions.
- Excellent written, verbal, and presentation communication skills.
