Manager, Group Corporate Development

People are at the heart of what we do and drive the success of our business. Our culture of connecting, creating opportunity and delivering excellence shape how we think, how we do things and how we help our people fulfil their potential. We embrace diversity and actively seek to attract individuals with unique backgrounds and perspectives. We break down barriers and encourage teamwork, enabling innovation and rapid development of solutions that make a difference. Our workplace generates an enriching and rewarding experience for our people and customers alike. Our vision is to build an inclusive culture in which everyone feels encouraged to fulfil their potential.

We know that real personal growth cannot be achieved by simply climbing a career ladder – which is why we encourage and enable a wealth of avenues and interesting opportunities for everyone to broaden and deepen their skills and expertise. As a global organisation spanning 70 countries and one rooted in a culture of growth, opportunity, diversity and innovation, LSEG is a place where everyone can grow, develop and fulfil your potential with meaningful careers.

The Group Corporate Development team at LSEG is a best in class, successful and high impact team. We are experts in Strategy and M&A execution and have helped the Group deliver a large amount of inorganic activity over the years: from industry defining transformational partnerships and acquisitions, like the $27bn acquisition of Refinitiv in 2021; to highly complex disposals like the $5bn disposal of Borsa Italiana or the $1bn disposal of Beta+; to highly strategic bolt-on acquisitions and investments like LSEG’s acquisition of Acadia in 2022 or our minority investment in Floww. These transactions have not only helped transform our Group to drive growth and deliver on our strategic priorities but have also re-shaped our industry.

The team works closely with our group executives, business leaders and key functions across our global business to understand how inorganic activity can support our strategic priorities. We are responsible for the full life cycle from M&A strategy & pipeline development to origination and then execution. We also support the business across a range of other activities.

We are looking for a manager to help lead our efforts in defining the group and divisions’ M&A strategy and to execute on key opportunities. This role is a key one in the team. You will be responsible for managing multiple M&A strategy and execution projects on a day-to-day basis and will have clear accountability for the project work of senior associates and associates on these projects. You will build relationships with partners across our business and across the globe to support successful delivery of our projects. You will also play a key role in developing our team, upskilling our resources and improving our tools and capabilities.

To be successful in this role, you should have good leadership abilities, strong experience of managing and delivering projects, an ability to build and maintain productive relationships with a variety of partners, a strong understanding of financial metrics and value drivers, creative problem-solving skills, excellent communication skills and above all, a real passion for M&A. Join our team and play a major role in transforming our business and the wider financial markets infrastructure industry for the better! WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:
