About the Position
M&A Associate @ Perpethua
Help reshape the future of Italian Small Medium Enterprises through Tech M&A
This is not your typical finance job. This is the beginning of something that didn’t exist - until now.
Company Description
Perpethua is a fintech startup on a mission to rethink how small and medium businesses have access and execute M&A transactions. We’ve just closed a €500K round backed by leading institutional investors and high-standing angels. Now it’s time to scale-and we’re building a team of top performers to make it happen.
Responsibilities
- Work on both sell-side and buy-side M&A transactions, directly alongside the founding team
- Be involved in all deal phases: origination, execution, closing
- Build models, assess businesses, speak with entrepreneurs, advisors, funds, and banks
- Support the ongoing development of our proprietary platform, collaborating with developers through structured feedback and product intuition
- Bring your energy and insight into a fast-moving environment where every voice counts
Requirements
- 1–3 years of experience in M&A, corporate finance, investment banking or deal advisory
- Strong analytical and modeling skills
- Entrepreneurial mindset and a hunger to grow in a high-intensity environment
- A tech-driven approach: you believe that technology can (and should) improve every process
- Independence, critical thinking, and natural curiosity
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Finance, Business Administration, Accounting, or related field
What we offer
- Salary range: €32K – €42K, depending on experience
- Performance-based bonus tied to deal activity
- Future access to our ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan)
- A meritocratic, fast-paced, and high-learning environment
- A committed, open, and energetic founding team
Location: Milan (hybrid setup; we value in-person collaboration)
