M&A Manager job for an energy company in Milton Keynes paying £65,000-£70,000

Your new company

We’re working confidentially with a fast-evolving, multi-entity company in Milton Keynes, now entering an exciting phase of strategic acquisition. With 10+ deals forecast per year over the next 5 years, this is your chance to lead, innovate, and establish a best-in-class M&A methodology that will scale across geographies.


Your new role

  • Architect and own the end-to-end M&A process: deal execution, integration, and strategy

  • Lead and mentor two newly hired M&A Analysts

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Finance, Legal, Ops, and Executive teams

  • Manage your own budget and commercial priorities

  • Develop financial models, review targets, and assess acquisition viability

  • Drive global acquisitions—experience navigating international landscapes will be key


What you'll need to succeed

  • 5+ years of dedicated M&A experience outside of practice (in-house or corporate development)

  • Fully qualified accountant (e.g. ACA, ACCA, CIMA)

  • Strong financial modelling and stock workforce awareness

  • Experience in—or exposure to—the energy supply chain is highly desirable.

  • Proven ability to lead teams and create scalable processes from scratch

  • A bold and driven mindset—Director-level opportunity within 2 years for the right candidate

What you'll get in return

  • Build a greenfield M&A function from day one

  • Influence a business making bold moves in energy and infrastructure

  • Attractive bonus scheme linked to successful deal activity

  • Join at a pivotal moment and chart your path toward executive leadership.
