JOB OVERVIEW

Full-time | Remote | UK business hours overlap required | Long-term role | Base salary + deal success bonuses

WHO WE ARE
We're 5D Capital Partners, a fast-moving M&A advisory firm operating across the UK, US, and UAE, helping business owners buy and sell companies in the $500K–$5M EBITDA range. Small team, high standards, zero bureaucracy. We move fast and we expect the same.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
This is NOT a task-taker role. We are looking for an exceptional all-rounder who takes full ownership. Someone who sees what needs doing, figures it out, and gets it done to a standard we don't have to check.
The founder currently does too much himself. Your job is to take work off his plate permanently, not to hand it back with questions. You'll be trusted with real deal work, including speaking directly with business owners, buyers and advisers. If you need step-by-step instructions for everything, this is not the role for you. If you love being trusted with responsibility and running with it, keep reading.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

- M&A calls: joining and eventually leading calls with business owners, buyers and intermediaries; screening enquiries, gathering deal information, booking and following up meetings
- Deal support: preparing and formatting proposals, Information Memorandums, engagement letters and client documents to a polished, professional standard
- Deal admin and pipeline: managing deals, contacts and follow-ups in our CRM (GoHighLevel); keeping every deal moving and nothing slipping
- Research: company research, buyer research, market and sector research for live deals
- Executive support: inbox and calendar management, scheduling, keeping the founder organised and ahead of deadlines
- Content operations: scheduling and publishing content for our weekly YouTube show and social channels; coordinating with our video editor
- Systems and SOPs: following (and improving) our documented processes as the business grows
- Anything else that lands: you pick things up fast and deliver

OUR STACK (experience with some of these is a big plus)
Notion, GoHighLevel, n8n, Google Workspace, Canva, Excel/Sheets, ChatGPT/Claude and other AI tools. If you already use AI daily to work faster, tell us. We want that.

YOU ARE

- An outstanding spoken communicator: fluent, confident, professional English on calls with business owners and investors. This is essential.
- Exceptionally high standards: you notice details others miss and you're embarrassed by sloppy work
- A fast learner: you can be handed something you've never done before and deliver it well within days, not weeks
- An owner, not an order-taker: you flag problems before they happen, propose solutions, and close loops without being chased
- Super positive and proactive: great energy, no drama, solution-focused
- Confident and well-presented on video calls: you will be client-facing
- Commercially sharp: you understand (or can quickly learn) how business acquisitions work. Experience in M&A, finance, banking, real estate or B2B sales is a strong plus.
- Reliable: stable internet, quiet workspace, consistent availability during UK business hours
- Trustworthy: you'll handle confidential deal information; discretion is non-negotiable

WHAT WE OFFER

- Base salary of Php 80,000– Php 120,000/month depending on experience ($1,300-$1,950/month)
- Deal success bonuses: when deals we're working on complete, you share in the win
- 13th month pay
- Full-time, long-term role with a growing international firm
- Genuine responsibility and growth: as we scale, you scale with us
- Direct access to the founders; no layers, no politics
- Paid Philippine holidays after probation

HOW TO APPLY
We get a lot of applications and we filter hard for attention to detail:

- Start your application with the word "ANCHOR" so we know you read this far.
- Record a 2–3 minute video introduction telling us why you're an exceptional fit, including a specific example of a time you took ownership of something outside your job description and nailed it. This is required, not optional. We cannot assess you for a client-facing role without hearing you speak.
- List the tools from our stack you've used, and your proficiency with each.
- Tell us about any experience with M&A, finance, sales or client-facing work.
- Include your expected monthly salary and your available working hours (in UK time).

Applications that don't follow these instructions will not be read. If you follow them well, you'll hear from us fast.

Thanks,
Mike
