We are working with a fast-growing, PE-backed cloud and managed services provider with deep expertise in the Microsoft ecosystem. The business has evolved from traditional IT infrastructure into a modern, cloud-first partner for mid-sized organisations, helping them navigate digital transformation across workplace, security, and infrastructure. Now part of a broader European platform, the company is entering its next phase of scalable growth.

We are working with a PE-backed cloud platform bringing together a portfolio of high-performing digital infrastructure and managed services businesses across Europe and North America. Built on a decentralised model, the group empowers local teams while driving value through shared expertise, commercial excellence, and scalable growth strategies.

This is a rare opportunity to operate at both a strategic and hands-on level across an international portfolio, shaping the commercial direction of multiple businesses while working closely with founders and leadership teams. With strong backing and clear growth ambitions, the role offers genuine influence over value creation, exposure to diverse markets, and the chance to build scalable, best-in-class commercial practices without losing the entrepreneurial spirit of each company.

Key responsibilities

• Define and drive commercial strategy across a portfolio of companies
• Identify and execute growth opportunities across markets and service lines
• Support local leadership teams in improving sales performance and go-to-market execution
• Drive cross-sell, upsell, and collaboration across portfolio companies
• Introduce best practices in pricing, packaging, and commercial governance
• Monitor performance, track KPIs, and ensure alignment with growth targets
• Partner with PE stakeholders on value creation initiatives and strategic planning
• Enable scalability while preserving entrepreneurial agility within portfolio companies

Ideal candidate

• Strong commercial leadership experience in hosting, cloud, or digital infrastructure
• Proven ability to drive growth across multiple business units or geographies
• Experience operating in a private equity-backed or high-growth environment
• Strategic thinker with hands-on execution capability
• Skilled in stakeholder management across founders, executives, and investors
• Data-driven mindset with strong financial and commercial acumen
• Comfortable working in an international, fast-paced environment
• Fluent in English (additional European languages a plus)

• Head of Accounting
  • Ideally 8 years of experience
  • Will manage team of 2.
  • Looking after the month, quarter and year sheets, tax topics, and everything else focusing on Germany
  • German language is a must.
  • Salary : is confirming budget by the end of this week so should know more.

• Head of FP&A
  • Min 7 years of experience
  • Sector experience necessary
  • Budget 110,000 base min
  • Inhouse experienced.
  • Tableau, google sheets, excel used.
  • Location : flexible including UK and US.

Unique Corporate Development role for a seasoned deal lead who can shape the US inorganic growth story for a UK technology portfolio asset. The role will sit in London with the Exco, leading M&A strategy, origination, and execution across the Atlantic — sourcing, executing, and embedding acquisitions that transform the business' footprint in a competitive US tech market.

You will own the full deal cycle:

• Origination – building relationships, mapping the market, and identifying the right opportunities across the US.
• Execution – running processes end-to-end: valuation, structuring, due diligence, negotiations, and Board approvals.
• Value creation – partnering with leadership to design and deliver the post-deal plan: from integration to unlocking revenue synergies and operational improvement.

This is not a supporting role. It’s a seat at the table, working shoulder-to-shoulder with the CEO and CFO, shaping one of the most critical growth levers for the business.

Essential experience: 

• A strong M&A track record - in-house corporate development is essential
• US transaction experience - directly leading processes in the States + bringing advisor relationships 
• A perspective on the US tech market, and growth angles
• The ability to balance sharp execution with commercial creativity 
• Proven magnetism with founder targets
• Gravitas with senior leadership and credibility with US counterparties and advisers

For the right candidate, this is an opportunity to define and deliver the US expansion playbook for a fast-scaling international tech leader.  A truly career-shaping opportunity.
