• Lead financial diligence on every acquisition target, including quality of earnings review, working capital analysis, and identification of one-time or owner-specific add-backs.
• Rebuild messy, owner-operated financials from source documents when required — bank statements, tax returns, QuickBooks exports — into a defensible view of the business.
• Build and maintain deal models that score targets against the Pixis acquisition framework, including purchase price, earnout structures, and return scenarios.
• Coordinate cross-functional diligence across external counsel, accountants, insurance brokers, and other third-party advisors. Own the diligence tracker and drive issues to resolution.
• Partner with counsel to structure each transaction — purchase price, earnouts, employment agreements, working capital pegs, and reps and warranties — and support the CEO through negotiation and close.

• Build and own a repeatable integration playbook with Day 1, 30, 60, and 100-day milestones across finance, operations, people, systems, and client handoff.
• Consolidate acquired financials into Pixis reporting. Stand up multi-entity reporting, close calendars, and chart of accounts alignment.
• Track earnout obligations and the underlying performance metrics month over month. Ensure accuracy, transparency, and no surprises for acquired operators.
• Define revenue and cost synergies against deal-model assumptions. Track actuals versus plan and report monthly to the CEO and board.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for acquired operators during transition. This is as much a people job as a finance job — founders need clarity, responsiveness, and follow-through from someone who represents Pixis well.

• Ready the pipeline so each deal moves faster than the last. Refine the diligence playbook, templates, and tooling after each close.
• Run diligence on one target while integrating another. Manage the overlap without dropping either.
• Prepare investor updates and board materials tied to acquisition activity, including pipeline status, deal economics, and integration performance.
• Partner with the CEO and CFO-function on capital planning tied to the roll-up cadence.

• Audit the current state of diligence materials, deal models, and integration artifacts from prior Pixis transactions.
• Stand up the Pixis diligence tracker, data room standards, and close checklist.
• Meet with each acquired operator to-date and assess open integration items.

• Deliver the first version of the integration playbook with Day 1 / 30 / 60 / 100 milestones.
• Stand up multi-entity consolidated reporting and earnout tracking.
• Lead diligence on an active target end to end.

• Close at least one transaction as the deal execution lead.
• Deliver the first monthly synergy report tying actual performance to deal-model assumptions.
• Publish the v1 Pixis acquisition playbook — diligence through Day 100 — as a living internal document.

• 5–8 years in M&A integration, transaction advisory, or post-merger operations.
• Direct experience with small to mid-sized acquisitions in service-based or project-based industries.
• Strong financial modeling. Comfort rebuilding founder-led books from scratch.
• Proven ability to manage cross-functional workstreams independently in a small-company environment with no existing support infrastructure.
• Exceptional organization, communication, and judgment. You will be the face of Pixis to founders selling their companies to us — how you show up matters.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity. This function does not yet exist. You will build it.

• Big Four transaction advisory or mid-market PE operating background.
• Experience integrating founder-led businesses where cultural sensitivity matters as much as financial execution.
• Background in event production, entertainment, field services, or other operationally intensive industries is a plus, not a requirement. Deal mechanics transfer. Industry knowledge can be learned.

• MBA. This is an execution role. The degree does not substitute for hands-on integration experience.

• You are an operator, not a theorist. You have closed real deals and integrated real companies, and you can point to the scars.
• You are equally comfortable in a spreadsheet, on a diligence call with counsel, and on a kitchen-table conversation with a founder who just sold their business.
• You read founders well. You know when to push and when to listen, and you treat acquired operators like partners, not line items.
• You are organized to the point of being slightly annoying about it. Trackers, checklists, follow-ups — nothing slips.
• You want a ground-floor seat on a category-defining roll-up and the chance to build the playbook that defines how this industry consolidates.

• Ground-floor seat on a category-defining roll-up. This industry did not exist five years ago, and the person who owns acquisition execution during this window gets to define how the category consolidates.
• Real deals, real pipeline. You will close transactions, not pitch theoretical ones.
• Direct exposure to Fortune 500 clients and category-defining creative work — Super Bowl, NBA Draft, Monday Night Football, Netflix, F1.
• Build the function your way. No legacy systems, no prior integration lead to clean up after. The playbook is yours to write.
