Job Description
(Part-Time | Deal Origination Only | No License Required)
Location: Flexible / Remote
Firm: Transworld Business Advisors (via independent referral arrangement)
Transworld is the world’s largest business brokerage with over 300 locations in more than 15 countries. Most businesses we help sell are under $20M in valuation, but we also support businesses up to $100M in valuation.
Role Overview
We are seeking experienced, well-connected professionals to join us as M&A Strategic Advisors / Origination Partners. This is a part-time, referral-based role focused exclusively on sourcing and introducing qualified business sale opportunities to our Transworld M&A team.
This role is not a business broker position, does not require a real estate or broker license, and does not involve executing transactions, valuations, negotiations, or deal management.
Think of this role as the M&A equivalent of a Venture Partner for Venture Capital Firms — relationship-driven, senior, and origination-focused.
- Key Responsibilities
- Source and introduce qualified business owners interested in selling their companies
- Leverage personal, professional, and industry networks to generate deal flow
- Make warm introductions between sellers and the Transworld brokerage team
- Help position opportunities at a high level (no pricing, negotiation, or execution)
- Act as a trusted connector and relationship ambassador
- What This Role Does NOT Include
- No deal execution or transaction management
- No negotiations or buyer/seller representation
- No valuations or listing agreements
- No broker or real estate license required
All transaction execution is handled exclusively by licensed Transworld Business Advisors.
Ideal Background
- This role is a strong fit for:
- Former or current executives, founders, operators
- Investors, family office advisors, PE/VC professionals
- Industry executives with deep sector relationships
- Business consultants, attorneys, CPAs, or senior advisors (where permitted)
You should be comfortable opening doors, not running deals.
- Compensation
- Commission-based referral compensation
- 10%–15% of gross deal fees, depending on deal size
- Paid upon successful closing of referred transactions
- No cap on earnings
- Why This Role
- Flexible, part-time structure
- No licensing or regulatory burden
- Leverage your network without operational overhead
- Work alongside a nationally recognized M&A platform
- Attractive upside with minimal time commitment
- Engagement Structure
- Independent contractor / referral partner relationship
- No equity, employment, or ownership implied
- Formal referral agreement provided
