M&A Associate Germany M&A Munchen

Marktlink supports entrepreneurs at every stage of their business journey. As an independent international M&A advisor, Marktlink combines deep market knowledge with a personal and pragmatic approach. Together with our label Marktlink Exit-Ready and other services such as Transaction Services, Legal and Debt Advisory, we support entrepreneurs by preparing their business for sale and guide them throughout the entire sales or acquisition process.

Our label Marktlink Capital offers entrepreneurs the opportunity to invest in strong private equity and venture capital funds.

Being an M&A Associate is the first career step to becoming a dealmaker. You will work for several deal teams that guide entrepreneurs in buying or selling a company. You are financially and analytically strong, but above all commercially and socially skilled. You will not merely be working on spreadsheets, you will be involved in the entire process and meet clients from day one!

At Marktlink we invest in our talents and reinforce each others strengths. We work in multidisciplinary teams. Through the Marktlink Academy you will be offered multiple trainings in every stage of your career. In addition, learning on the job is essential in mergers and acquisitions and we organise monthly sessions to share knowledge. A healthy work-life balance and informal working atmosphere are very important to us.

Every day we have lunch together and then we talk about everything, except work.
