Position summary

We’re looking for an Corporate Development Manager. You’ll sit at the heart of Dwelly’s growth engine, supporting both acquisitions and fundraising. We’re a high-velocity roll-up, running multiple deals at once and supporting fundraising in parallel - so you’ll have a steep learning curve with real ownership. This isn’t corporate M&A: we bring a startup mindset, iterate constantly, and give people room to shape the process. You’ll own the analytical heavy lifting across deals and fundraising, pressure-test investment cases, and help build our equity story, working closely with the Head of Corp Dev, Head of M&A, and the Founders.

This is a high-impact role with a front-row seat to building one of the UK’s most ambitious proptech platforms.

Key responsibilities

1. Power the acquisition engine

• You’ll own the analytical workstream on each deal end-to-end, from first assessment of strategic fit through diligence and approval. You’ll keep the “does this help us scale in the right way?” question front and centre, helping us stay focused on the right opportunities and building repeatable analytical approaches that let us scale deal volume without reducing quality.

2. Build the investment case

• You’ll bring together the financial analysis, diligence findings, and commercial context behind each deal to form a clear investment view. Your role is to help us understand what we’re buying, what drives value, where the risks sit, and whether a deal should progress - then translate that into concise recommendations and clear handover points for integration.
• Alongside deals, you’ll support fundraising: prepping for investor meetings, owning models / analysis, and helping to sharpen how we tell the story of Dwelly - what we’re building, why we’ll win, and how capital accelerates growth

Qualifications and preferred background

• Strong communication skills and fluency in English.
• Higher degree education from top-tier university.
• Startup mentality: resilience, adaptability, and ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment.
• Customer-centric mindset: focus on delivering value to end-users or clients.
• Strong problem-solving skills - ability to approach challenges logically and propose practical solutions.
• Experience in investment banking (M&A), strategy consulting (CDD/transactions), PE / investing / family offices, or corporate development in a high-growth environment.
• Excellent financial modelling and analytical skills (comfortable building models from scratch and stress-testing assumptions).
• Strong commercial judgement and curiosity - you naturally ask “what really drives value here?”
• Highly organised, able to run multiple workstreams and deliver to tight deadlines.
• Competitive salary with the potential for equity options based on performance, recognising exceptional contributions to our integration success.
