* General Description:

** Assertive, detailed and skilled Senior Analyst (“SA”) needed for 7-Eleven’s Mergers & Acquisitions team.  The 7-Eleven M&A team’s mission is to accelerate 7-Eleven’s store development and portfolio optimization in North America,  while maximizing the bottom-line impact through the most profitable channels of trade, and to directly assist in 7-Eleven’s other Transformational activities through utilizing acquisitions and strategic transactions to accelerate change and growth in its in-store, digital and service product offerings, as well as the technology and/or processes to support such business, product and services development.  

Additionally, the M&A team includes Acquisition Integration in order to manage the full life-cycle of a transaction until integration and into a hand-off to core operations.

The SA will be a key member of the team and assume a leading role on individual initiatives and project teams for transactions. He/she will need to lead the financial analysis on store and non-store opportunities and will be a key member of cross-functional teams supporting and accelerating the strategic growth of 7‐Eleven.  He/she will succeed by successfully owning and understanding how 7‐Eleven analyzes, evaluates, and models strategic opportunities and can offer well-reasoned and value-added assumptions and opinions to drive the financial model, while supporting a transaction from prospecting/NDA through closing and then integration.  

The SA’s primary roles include completing site assessments/characterizations; developing and modifying valuation models; performing business and financial analysis; conducting due diligence/planning (business/legal/environmental); providing analytic support throughout the deal development cycle; and generating and maintaining internal reporting on transactions shared with other departments and the Executive Committee.  Working closely with the analysts, managers, directors and the Senior Vice President, he/she will be part of world-class M&A and Acquisition Integration team and have direct deliverables to, and interaction and opportunities to influence, the senior management of 7‐Eleven on strategic initiatives.  

SAs on the M&A team also provide leadership, support, and deliverables to other departments in the Development Team and other departments that work with the M&A team to pursue new and complementary non-traditional opportunities, such as the Digital, Delivery, Business Development, International and IT teams.

The ability to quickly decipher information, evaluate opportunities and creatively solve problems will be key to being successful in this role.  This leader will need to internalize and utilize the 7‐Eleven Leadership Principles and Digital/Agile thinking to move quickly and decisively.

A successful SA in M&A will master the financial analysis and modeling necessary to contribute to each opportunity, understand business strategy as it relates to each target and accelerate the transformation of 7‐Eleven and the M&A team by challenging the status quo and being courageous with his/her point of view.
