Data Aggregation—Deal Finder

Type: Part time to full time, 30 to 40 hours per week
Location: Remote
Reports to: Acquisitions Principals

About the Role

We are a private acquisitions firm that buys and operates established businesses across several industries. We are growing our deal pipeline and need a sharp, organized, detail obsessed Virtual Assistant to help us find acquisition targets and open the first line of conversation with business owners.

This is a research and outreach role, not a closing role. You find the businesses, build clean contact data, and send the opening emails from templates we provide. From there, our principals take over the negotiation and relationship building. Your job is to keep the top of the funnel full and accurate.

If you are organized, curious, fast on a computer, and you take pride in getting the small details exactly right, you will do well here. We will train you on our systems and our process.

What You Will Do

• Research and build lists of businesses in target industries using online directories, search engines, business listing sites, and public records
• Identify the actual owner or key decision maker of each business, not just the front desk
• Find and verify accurate contact information, including direct emails and phone numbers
• Organize everything into clean, well structured spreadsheets with no duplicates and no errors
• Send opening outreach emails using templates we provide, personalized with the correct business and owner details
• Track outreach status, responses, and follow up timing so nothing slips through the cracks
• Flag promising leads and any responses quickly so our principals can step in
• Keep the pipeline accurate, current, and easy for us to act on

What We Are Looking For

• Strong computer proficiency. You are comfortable with spreadsheets, browsers, email tools, and learning new software quickly
• Sharp attention to detail. You double check names, spelling, emails, and phone numbers before anything goes out
• Strong to Excellent written English. Your outreach emails should read clean and professional
• Strong research instincts. You can dig past the obvious result to find the real owner and the real contact
• Reliability and consistency. You show up, hit your numbers, and communicate clearly
• A genuine willingness to learn. We have systems and we will teach them, but you need to absorb feedback and improve fast
• Discretion. You will handle business and contact information that we expect you to keep confidential

Nice to Have

• Experience with artificial intelligence tools such as Gemini, OpenAI, or Claude
• Prior experience in lead generation, list building, cold outreach, or sales development
• Experience with tools such as Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, email outreach platforms, or contact finding tools
• Familiarity with business directories and public business records

Hours and Compensation

30 to 40 hours per week. Compensation will be discussed based on experience and proven accuracy. Strong performers will have room to grow with us as our acquisition activity expands.
