As a Chief Executive Officer (Operating Partner) in All Interests Aligned’s (AIA) Management Buy-In (MBI) Program, you will lead the acquisition and management of a high-potential, family-owned SME facing a succession challenge. Unlike a traditional job, this is a unique career path, offering you the opportunity to become a CEO-owner of a business, with the backing of investors who are successful entrepreneurs themselves.

• Origination: Identify and assess potential acquisition targets with AIA’s financial and strategic support. During this phase, you will be compensated, ensuring financial stability while you focus on building your acquisition pipeline.
• Deal Closing: Partner with AIA’s investment professionals who lead due diligence, valuation, and deal structuring to secure the acquisition.
• Transition: Take on the CEO role, with a structured transition plan that includes leadership handover and relationship-building with key stakeholders.
• Operation: Lead the company’s operations, supported by AIA’s team in governance, reporting, and compliance to create and execute a value-driven growth plan.
• Exit: Prepare and execute an exit strategy in partnership with AIA, maximizing returns and ensuring a sustainable future for the business.

• Industry Expertise: Proven success and deep expertise in a relevant industry that aligns with AIA’s investment strategy.
• Entrepreneurial Mindset: Demonstrated resilience, grit, and a track record of overcoming challenges to achieve successful business outcomes.
