About the organization

This organization is a European platform in the vehicle services sector, bringing together local businesses under one umbrella across multiple countries. With a solid foundation in place and ambitious growth plans, the organization is now expanding into new markets. The M&A Manager makes that expansion happen.

Vacancy: M&A Manager Germany & Netherlands

Both Germany and the Netherlands offer significant growth opportunities: the market is large, fragmented, and rich with concrete acquisition targets. The M&A Manager takes ownership of the end-to-end process: from sourcing to negotiation, due diligence, and closing, supported by the Head of M&A and external legal and financial advisors.

The target companies are typically owned by entrepreneurs who have built their businesses over decades. Earning their trust and convincing them to join the group takes a specific set of skills. The M&A Manager walks into those conversations with authority and genuine understanding of what a transaction means to a seller, and what their company means to them. In this industry, the ability to make that connection matters at least as much as technical M&A skills.

What sets the right candidate apart is hands‑on M&A experience, ideally in a roll‑up or buy-and-build context, combined with the drive to work decisively and, at times, independently. Proficiency in Dutch is a merit. Deal flow across both markets is expected to increase further, and as acquisitions are completed, a German organization will take shape. For an M&A professional ready to be part of a growth story of this scale, this represents an exceptional opportunity.
