Job Description

Job Description

We’re seeking an experienced and entrepreneurial Head of Corporate Development to design and lead our acquisition strategy. You’ll be responsible for identifying, evaluating, and executing acquisitions that expand our technology capabilities, accelerate innovation, and strengthen our market position.

This is a high-impact, hands-on role ideal for a strategic thinker who thrives on building relationships, mapping markets, and executing deals from origination to integration.

This is a remote position.

Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Leadership :

  • Develop and continuously refine our M&A and partnership strategy aligned with corporate objectives.
  • Build a structured acquisition roadmap targeting technology-driven companies that enhance our products, data, or technical capabilities.
  • Present acquisition theses, valuation frameworks, and deal recommendations to executive leadership.

Target Sourcing & Pipeline Development :

  • Identify, research, and prioritize acquisition targets — from early-stage innovators to scalable niche players.
  • Build and maintain a living market map of emerging technologies, competitors, and adjacent solutions.
  • Establish strong relationships with founders, venture capital funds, accelerators, and M&A advisors.
  • Deal Execution :

  • Lead the end-to-end transaction process : evaluation, financial modeling, due diligence, negotiation, and closing.
  • Coordinate internal and external resources (finance, legal, technology, HR) to execute transactions efficiently.
  • Manage NDAs, LOIs, term sheets, and integration planning in collaboration with functional leaders.
  • Integration & Value Realization :

  • Partner with business unit leaders to ensure smooth post-acquisition integration and realization of synergies.
  • Track and report on deal performance metrics, including capability impact, cultural fit, and financial outcomes.
  • Qualifications :

  • 3+ years of experience in corporate development, M&A, private equity, or investment banking, ideally with exposure to technology or software sectors.
  • Proven ability to source and close deals independently, not just manage a process.
  • Strong analytical and financial modeling skills; comfort with valuation of early-stage and IP-driven businesses.
  • Excellent relationship builder — able to engage founders, investors, and executives with credibility.
  • Demonstrated experience in technology assessment, product integration, or innovation strategy is a major plus.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset : scrappy, curious, and persistent in finding “off-market” opportunities.
  • What Success Looks Like in the First Year :

  • A defined acquisition playbook and deal-sourcing funnel is established.
  • Multiple high-quality targets under active evaluation or NDA.
  • A repeatable framework for diligence, valuation, and integration built and operationalized.
  • Recognized internally as the go-to voice for inorganic growth strategy.
  • PAY RANGE :

    CorVel uses a market based approach to pay and our salary ranges may vary depending on your location. Pay rates are established taking into account the following factors : federal, state, and local minimum wage requirements, the geographic location differential, job-related skills, experience, qualifications, internal employee equity, and market conditions. Our ranges may be modified at any time.

    For leveled roles (I, II, III, Senior, Lead, etc.) new hires may be slotted into a different level, either up or down, based on assessment during interview process taking into consideration experience, qualifications, and overall fit for the role. The level may impact the salary range and these adjustments would be clarified during the offer process.

    Pay Range : $95,950 – $149,210
