Head of M&A and Funding

United Fintech is growing rapidly as we continue to transform the fintech landscape by uniting innovative capital markets solutions under one roof. This role puts you at the centre of our business and strategy, with significant influence on our growth. Your primary focus will be to drive our M&A workstream, from deal sourcing through to execution, and fundraising from some of the biggest names in finance. The role also involves Board and investor liaison, working closely with the Founder and CEO to grow United Fintech and shape the future of global financial technology.

We leverage technology and digital systems to automate everything we do - including M&A - creating a structured, scalable foundation for acquisitions and rapid growth. You will have a major impact by shortening acquisition cycles and accelerating growth. People development is also a key part of your role, as you will initially have one analyst on your team.

We're looking for someone who can lead multiple M&A tracks simultaneously. We think big and ahead - how will you build the foundation for identifying, assessing, and acquiring multiple companies annually, while also managing fundraising and shareholder relations? This requires a strategic, analytical leader who can synthesise complex data and enable high-quality decisions.

At United Fintech, we embrace new challenges with innovation, aiming to reshape finance through technology. We move fast - identifying, acquiring, and scaling businesses with ambition and optimism. With a blend of cultures across offices in the US, Asia, and Europe, we offer a unique, exciting workplace where everyone can grow and contribute to ongoing improvement and excellence.
