Built for people who want to work on


real deals from the start.


Legacy Acquisitions USA is a boutique M&A advisory firm focused on the lower middle market.


We represent active buyers including private equity platforms and institutional capital, sourcing


and closing acquisitions across trade services, industrial, and consumer sectors. Our analyst


program is built around live deal flow. You will not be observing transactions. You will be


expected to source opportunities and move deals forward.


This is a high-volume, fast-paced, performance-driven role. The people who advance here


move fast, qualify hard, and take ownership of their pipeline from week one.


This role involves high daily call volume. Expect 150–200+ outbound calls per day.

  • Comfortable on the phone with business owners and institutional buyers in the same week

  • Self-directed and organized, able to manage a live pipeline without being managed

  • Motivated by outcomes and ownership over everything else

economics.


Top performers move into advisory roles quickly.
