About the role
Mercury is building the financial stack ambitious companies use to operate, from banking* to bill pay to forecasting, and everything in between. As we scale, the strategic choices we make about what we build, who we buy, and who we partner with are some of the highest-leverage decisions in the business. To help us make those bets well, we're hiring a Lead on our Corporate Development team. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Have 5–8 years of relevant experience, with at least 2 years in an in-house Corporate Development seat at a tech company. Investment banking, PE, or growth equity experience before that is welcome but not required
- Have direct reps on live M&A deals - diligence, modeling and execution
- Have driven post-close integration on the company side: owned the plan after a deal closed, ran the cross-functional workstreams, and were accountable for whether the deal delivered what the model said
- Are highly analytical and comfortable with data: you can pull the numbers yourself, find what matters in them, and size the analysis to the decision, from a back-of-envelope estimate to a full model
- Work with AI every day : you have used AI to build your own workflows and scaled your output
- Write clearly. Can take a messy strategic question and produce a memo or board-ready slide that drives a decision

This is a function being built, so you'll have the chance to build the corp dev, IR, and strategy muscle at Mercury as we grow, with reps on real deals. We've closed two acquisitions and the M&A roadmap is active. We run Corp Dev as an AI-native, flat, and high-agency team.
