Overture | Founding President/COO, M&A / Investment Banking | REMOTE (US) | Significant equity
Overture is a vertically integrated, AI-native marketplace for SME acquisitions with listing, valuation, deal rooms, SBA pre-qualification, and capital formation end-to-end. Think TurboTax of business exits, aimed at the baby boomer succession wave (millions of businesses, most with no succession plan).
Who we are: founding team with a decade in fintech, previously backed by Pantera Capital. Platform is close to MVP, pilot structured around ~$5M businesses, fundraise timed to our first deal reaching purchase agreement. In advanced discussions with a top Los Angeles law firm to handle sell-side contracts with one partner already as advisor.
The role: you run sell-side execution on our pilot transactions from engagement through close, and you shape how deal mechanics get productized into the platform. True cofounder: strategy, fundraising presence, significant equity.
You: deep sell-side M&A or IB experience, ideally some in lower middle market ($1M–$25M deals). Comfortable running a transaction hands-on with minimal support. At least one of: fundraising experience, a broker or intermediary network you can bring along, or M&A licensing (Series 79/63 or state broker license a strong plus). Builder's temperament.
Deal supply is our current priority.
