Finding acquisition targets that fit your vision
Finding the right acquisition targets is one of the most critical stages of any M&A strategy. At CJPI, we support investors, corporates and entrepreneurs in identifying opportunities that align with strategic objectives. Using the same structured market mapping and leadership access as our executive search solution, we help our clients uncover the right deals before competitors do.
The M&A Challenge
Acquiring the right business is rarely a function of visibility alone. CJPI helps investors, acquirers, and growth-focused organisations identify and evaluate acquisition opportunities through a combination of market intelligence, leadership insight, and structured strategic analysis.
Our executive search and leadership advisory work provides direct access to decision-makers, founders, and senior executives across relevant markets. This gives us a unique perspective on ownership transitions, leadership readiness, and organisational direction, enabling a more informed and often earlier view of potential acquisition opportunities.
Find Great Opportunities
We help identify and assess opportunities against the mandate, whether platform plays or bolt-ons.
We start by looking at sector scans, target profiling and building a research-led market map that identifies off-market targets and the key decision-makers behind them. Using real-time signals and deep commercial insight, we can enhance this process by including early indicators of potential interest or change.
From there, we run discreet, personalised outreach campaigns, engaging targets directly, assessing interest and strategic fit – presenting qualified opportunities that merit your attention.

At CJPI, we know that when a successful business owner receives an approach, who is asking matters as much as what is being asked. Our senior team lead the outreach personally. We use our seniority and sector credibility to bypass gatekeepers, engage owners on a peer-to-peer level, and unlock off-market conversations that others simply cannot access.
