About Evernomic
Evernomic is a venture studio building, acquiring, and operating companies in media and media-adjacent software. We own and run publications that reach millions of readers each month, and we use that distribution as an advantage when launching or acquiring new ventures. The portfolio spans newsletters, design tools, marketplaces, and publishing software.
We’re a small team operating remotely across several countries. We care about good design, loyal communities, and building things that last.
The role
We’re hiring an M&A analyst to work directly on our acquisition pipeline. You’ll evaluate companies we’re considering buying, build the financial models that inform our offers, run due diligence, and help structure deals from LOI through close.
This is hands-on work. You won’t be sitting in a corner of a bank making decks for someone else to present. You’ll be in the room (or on the call) with founders we’re negotiating with, thinking about deal structure, flagging risks, and helping us decide what’s worth pursuing.
A typical week might involve digging into the financials of a newsletter business we’re looking at, modeling out what the next three years could look like under our ownership, pressure-testing the seller’s claims about their cost structure, and helping draft the terms of an offer.
What we’re looking for
Solid financial modeling skills. You can build a model from scratch, not just plug numbers into a template. You understand SDE, EBITDA adjustments, working capital, and how deal structure affects returns.
Experience with small to mid-sized acquisitions, ideally in the 500K to 20M range. If you’ve worked at an investment bank or PE firm, that’s useful, but we care more about whether you’ve actually closed deals than where you trained.
Sharp judgment. The numbers only get you so far. You need to be able to look at a business and form a view on whether it’s actually good, not just whether the spreadsheet says so.
Direct, clear communication. We work async a lot. If you can’t write a tight memo, this role won’t work.
Comfort with ambiguity. We don’t have a 200-page playbook. Deals are weird and structures vary. You should be the kind of person who finds that interesting rather than stressful.
Logistics
Fully remote. We’re spread across Europe and beyond. We do a lot of work with US-based companies, so you’ll need meaningful overlap with US hours, whether that means you’re based there or you’re in Europe and comfortable taking afternoon and evening calls.
