[Hiring] M&A Research Analyst @EquiMatch GmbH

Role Description

You'll own the workflow that takes a client's investment thesis and turns it into a high-quality longlist of target companies. Day-to-day, this means:

• Translating buy-side mandates, CIMs, and acquirer profiles into structured search scopes — value chain positioning, keywords, inclusion and exclusion criteria
• Building longlists by querying our backend, running pipelines, and combining results from multiple data sources (our internal database, third-party providers, web-scraped data)
• Running QA on pipelines before they go to clients — checking data quality, leadership coverage, country mapping, and clause logic

Qualifications

• Fluent in English
• 1–3 years in an analytical role
• Any prior experience in the financial industry - a plus
• Prior experience in M&A - a plus
• Experience working with company databases

Benefits

• Real ownership
• A toolchain built for leverage: reusable Claude-powered skills, internal APIs, and data infrastructure that you'll help shape
• A front-row seat to how AI is reshaping a slow-moving corner of finance — and the chance to build the playbook
• We're looking for remote support and prioritize candidates based on prior relevant experience and timezone proximity
