(TSX: CSU), acquires vertical market software companies with a permanent ownership mandate — giving each business a stable, long-term home and the tools to become a market leader. The Associate Director / Director, M&A Execution is a senior individual contributor role embedded within the Boson Portfolio, responsible for owning end-to-end deal execution across the MENA and APAC markets.

This role operates at the intersection of financial analysis, corporate finance, and relationship management. The successful candidate will bring deep technical craft — advanced modelling, rigorous diligence, sharp instincts on business quality — alongside the stakeholder engagement skills needed to build trusted relationships with founders, senior executives, investment bankers, lawyers, and accountants. They will work closely with the VP of M&A and the EVP of Finance, contributing original analysis and judgement while owning execution on each transaction with minimal supervision. Andromeda's decentralized model puts ownership of execution squarely with the people closest to the deals. The Associate Director / Director will be that person in the region — bringing solutions to every diligence challenge, surfacing risks early, and applying intellectual curiosity to understand not just the numbers, but the business behind them. As the Boson portfolio and team scale, this role's scope will evolve, with increasing focus and specialization matched to the growth of the platform.
