Job Description

Welcome to NextGen Growth Partners' 2025 EIR Application. At NGP, we believe in empowering the next generation of entrepreneurial leaders to achieve remarkable success via Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA). Our firm partners with aspiring CEOs to search for, acquire, operate, and grow thriving businesses across a diverse range of industries. In turn, we provide support every step of the way, with mentorship, access to our advisory board and operating partners, a proven playbook, and the capital needed to fund acquisitions, including opportunities for outside co-investment.

Our Ideal Candidate

We are looking for passionate and driven individuals - whether top-tier MBA graduates or seasoned business leaders - who are eager to take the helm of a lower middle market business with EBITDA in the $1 to $7 million range.

Once you partner with a business, you'll relocate and step into the role you've been preparing for-leading the company with vision and purpose.

Post-Acquisition, you'll transition into overseeing the day-to-day operations of the business as its new CEO, developing the long-term mission and strategic vision of the company alongside the Board of Directors. With the support of NGP, you will spearhead the development and implementation of effective value creation strategies; build company culture and lead teams; and shepherd the business into its next phase of growth.
