A growing private equity firm is seeking a Business Development Analyst to help identify and develop acquisition opportunities for one of its portfolio companies.

This is a business development and deal-sourcing role—not a traditional finance position. You’ll research companies, connect with business owners and intermediaries, build relationships, and identify businesses that may be acquisition opportunities.

What You'll Do

  • Research and identify potential acquisition targets
  • Conduct high-volume outbound calls, emails, and follow-up
  • Build relationships with business owners, founders, brokers, and investment bankers
  • Qualify potential acquisition opportunities
  • Maintain and manage your pipeline in the CRM
  • Document conversations and provide qualified opportunities to the M&A team
  • Use data and AI-powered tools to improve sourcing efforts

What They're Looking For

  • 1+ years of experience in sales, business development, sourcing, or client development
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • Comfortable making outbound calls and speaking with business owners and executives
  • Competitive, persistent, and results-driven
  • Organized and comfortable working with CRM systems and data
  • Bachelor’s degree; strong academic performance preferred
  • Proficiency with Excel and PowerPoint
  • Interest in private equity, M&A, and business development

Private equity experience is not required. High-performing sales and business development professionals are encouraged to apply.

Why Consider It?

  • Competitive base salary + deal-based bonus
  • Benefits package
  • Austin-based, in-office environment
  • Direct exposure to private equity and M&A
  • Structured career path into senior sourcing, business development leadership
