The Role
We are looking for a high-calibre Investment Associate to join our Corporate Development team in Milan on a full-time, permanent basis.
You will work closely with senior investment professionals across the full M&A lifecycle, from sourcing and evaluation to execution and post-acquisition value creation. This is a hands-on role with direct exposure to live transactions across Europe and North America, offering significant responsibility and ownership from day one.
What You’ll Do
- Evaluate and execute technology acquisitions across multiple geographies
- Lead financial modelling, valuation analyses, and investment return assessments
- Conduct commercial, financial, and operational due diligence in collaboration with internal and external stakeholders
- Prepare investment memos and materials for internal investment committees and the Board
- Support negotiations of transaction structures, SPAs, and related documentation alongside Legal
- Work closely with Finance, Product, Legal, and Value Creation teams pre- and post-acquisition
- Contribute to origination efforts, including market mapping and target screening
What We’re Looking For
- 2–6 years of full-time experience in investment banking, private equity, or corporate development
- Strong financial modelling, valuation, and analytical skills
- Proven ability to manage complex workstreams independently and deliver under tight timelines
- High attention to detail with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
- Excellent communication skills and ability to interact with senior stakeholders
- Fluency in English; additional European languages (French, Spanish, Italian, or German) are a plus
What You’ll Get
- Direct exposure to end-to-end M&A transactions in a high-volume, high-velocity acquisition environment
- Significant responsibility and autonomy from day one
- The opportunity to help shape one of Europe’s most active AI-powered software acquisition platforms
- Close collaboration with experienced dealmakers and senior leadership
- Competitive compensation aligned with experience, plus long-term career progression opportunities
Ready to Take the Next Step?
If you are intellectually curious, execution-driven, and eager to operate at the centre of a fast-scaling software group, we would love to hear from you.
Apply now and help build the next generation of enterprise software infrastructure.
