Position Group
  • Retego is a holding company that acquires and operates data-driven marketing businesses. I need one sharp, organized person to be the engine behind my deal pipeline: finding owners worth talking to, writing the outreach, keeping the process organized, and getting meetings on my calendar.
  • No M&A experience required. You will learn how acquisitions actually work by sitting inside a live pipeline instead of reading about one.
  • What you'll do
  • Identify performance marketing agency owners who may be open to a conversation about selling, using LinkedIn, industry directories, and platform partner listings
  • Write and send personalized outreach by LinkedIn and email
  • Own the CRM. Every target, conversation, follow-up date, and status lives there and stays current.
  • Request and organize CIMs from brokers, and log the numbers that matter: revenue, EBITDA, multiple, headcount, seller motivation
  • Get calls scheduled with owners, brokers, and advisors, and keep them from slipping
  • Coordinate with brokers, lenders, and advisors as deals progress
  • Who you are
  • Driven. You've done something that took self-discipline when nobody was watching: built a side business, competed seriously at something, worked your way through school. Tell me what it was.
  • Organized and reliable. You follow up without being asked. When you say it's done, it's done.
  • A clear writer. This job is mostly short messages that make busy people want to reply.
  • Curious and coachable. You want to be measurably better at this in six weeks than you are on day one.
  • Compensation
  • $25 to $30/hour depending on experience, 15 hours per week to start
  • $10,000 bonus on a closed acquisition you sourced
  • Path to full-time as the pipeline grows
  • How to apply
  • Tell me why this job matters to you and send a 100-word cold LinkedIn message you would send to the owner of a 25-person performance marketing agency.
