Search Fund Entrepreneur

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Smeventures Full time

We are seeking ambitious and talented individuals to join our platform as Search Fund Entrepreneurs or "searchers". As a searcher at SMEVentures, you will embark on the journey to identify, acquire, and subsequently operate a high-potential business as its CEO.

As of November '23, two-thirds of search fund acquisitions in Australia have been completed by SMEVentures-backed searchers. With the support of our experienced team, tech-powered sourcing engine, and vast network, SMEVentures searchers are empowered to succeed as future CEOs.

**Requirements**:

- Once you experience the thrill of running your own business, there's no turning back. You will find it difficult to be satisfied with nearly any other occupation.
- The opportunity cost is significant. You must be ready to dedicate the next 7-10 years to this project, a period during which you may have otherwise taken several other jobs or received several promotions, working your way up the corporate ladder.
- The upside opportunity is even more significant, both from an economic standpoint and in terms of personal development.

If a search fund is the right path for you, then you're making one of the best decisions of your life. If not, then be prepared for a bumpy road. I therefore suggest taking time with your responses. Take them to heart, and treat them with care.

Lastly, please note that we currently partner only with entrepreneurs in Australia and New Zealand. On rare occasions, we will consider working with a searcher elsewhere in Asia Pacific.

Thank you for your interest, and we very much look forward to hearing from you.

**Benefits**

By partnering with APAC's premier ETA platform since 2020, you will drastically improve your probability of success by gaining momentum quickly, conducting a powerful search, and buying the right company:

- **Tech**: Access our advanced search engine, integrating multiple tools and automations, letting you concentrate on strategic decisions.
- **Data**: Rely on our dedicated team of analysts who gather essential data, enabling you to focus on engaging with sellers.
- **Coaching**: Benefit from our experienced guidance to refine your search mechanics, target lucrative sectors, and source optimal deals.
- **Capital**: Tap into our esteemed investor network to promptly fund your search and deal, with investors who value your commitment of time and effort.
- **Community**: Be part of a passionate team of entrepreneurs and analysts, collaborating to discover industries, devise tools, and formulate strategies.
- **Network**: Join our exclusive circle of diverse professionals, from investors to business owners, all united with a common goal: acquiring outstanding businesses.
