About this role

BUILDING THE PERMANENT HOME FOR ESSENTIAL SOFTWARE

EMPOWERING AMBITIOUS BUSINESSES WITH LONG-TERM GROWTH

Beacon Software is seeking an M&A Counsel to lead the legal execution of mergers and acquisitions across its expanding portfolio of mission-critical software businesses. As a permanent capital holding company, Beacon acquires and grows essential businesses, supporting founders and teams with deep operational, technical, and investment expertise.

In this high-impact role, the M&A Counsel will serve as the primary legal lead on transactions from LOI through post-closing, reporting to the VP, Legal. Responsibilities include managing all legal work streams, conducting in-house due diligence, drafting and negotiating transaction documents, and ensuring seamless deal execution across multiple concurrent transactions. The role requires direct partnership with Beacon’s investment and operations teams, providing real-time legal guidance and risk assessment, and leveraging AI tools to drive efficiency throughout the deal lifecycle.

The ideal candidate brings 3–5 years of M&A experience at a top-tier law firm or in-house, with a proven ability to independently run transactions end-to-end. Strong proficiency with AI-enabled legal tools, broad knowledge of U.S. and/or Canadian M&A frameworks, and the ability to address general legal issues across disciplines are essential. Experience with technology-focused or SaaS M&A is a strong plus.

Beacon offers a unique environment combining the pace of a high-growth technology company with the stability of a long-term investment firm. Team members benefit from mentorship, exposure to diverse industries, and the opportunity to work alongside entrepreneurs and investors who have scaled businesses from startup to IPO.
