[TL011c] Sales & Marketing Executive (London)
ThinkingLinking is looking for a Sales & Marketing Executive to join a small, fast-paced and disciplined strategic consulting team in the City of London.
We welcome applicants with precise minds and clear communication since we use logic, strategic planning and advanced communication skills when working with our team internally as well as working with clients.
About ThinkingLinking
ThinkingLinking is a boutique strategy-focused M&A consulting firm with a ‘Strategy before Finance’ methodology. Unlike other small firms that specialise in one sector, ThinkingLinking works across several sectors, using proprietary methodologies to identify opportunities and guide the dealmaking process. We add strategy and psychology to the traditional finance dimension of M&A, in effect blending two industries – strategic consulting and M&A.
