About Grey Fox
Grey Fox represents a select group of leading private equity firms and strategic acquirers. They trust us to speak in their name with owners who have spent years building their businesses. Earning that conversation, understanding both sides and finding a credible reason to bring them together is the work.
You will join while the team is small enough for your judgment, habits and contribution to help shape the firm.
The role
The work calls for intelligence, persistence and an understanding of people. You need to make an investor’s interest relevant to an owner, recognize what matters in the response and know how to move the conversation forward.
Cold calling is a substantial part of the role. You should already be comfortable doing it.
What you will do
Support three to four origination projects at a time, using prepared research and systems we have built ourselves.
Learn each investor’s strategy.
Engage business owners through calls, emails and LinkedIn, qualify businesses and help develop the right introductions.
Report progress and next steps directly to investors on weekly pipeline calls.
Who we look for
We want people who have already shown initiative and want to become exceptionally good at this work.
You can point to opportunities you created through your own judgment and effort.
You learn unfamiliar businesses quickly and ask questions because you want to understand how they work.
You absorb substantial information, identify what matters and explain it clearly.
You enjoy storytelling and positioning, and can turn a complicated proposition into a credible reason to engage.
You listen closely, adapt to the person and find common ground between different interests.
You move quickly, take care over the details and hold yourself accountable for the result.
You should have at least two years of professional experience. Outbound sales, particularly technology sales, is a strong foundation. Experience in M&A, finance or private equity is welcome but not required.
You should also use AI confidently and independently to answer questions and synthesize information, with the judgment to assess its output.
What we offer
You will learn on live searches alongside the people who run them. As the firm grows, there is room to build expertise and take on greater responsibility.
