Corporate Development Manager

We started iZettle with a single mission: to empower small-business owners to sell smarter by offering them the tools typically reserved for bigger players. We have come a long way, but there is so much exciting work ahead of us. And we need the best and brightest to help us get it done. Our fast-growing company was founded in 2010 and currently has approximately 450 employees across its 12 operating countries, with offices in Berlin, London, Edinburgh, Madrid, Mexico City, Sao Paulo and Stockholm (HQ).

The iZettle Corporate Development team executes strategic partnership and M&A opportunities across our 12 markets. In 2016 this team completed the acquisition of Intelligent POS and executed numerous strategic partnership deals. In 2017, we expect an even more exciting year of working with global leaders in the SME space to deliver a stronger, better distributed solution for our merchants. The team is based out of London, reporting into iZettle’s Co-founder Magnus Nilsson. We’re looking for an enthusiastic and committed team player to join us!
