Head of M&A

About Loop

Loop is industrializing services through AI, starting with one of the world's most complex industries: the global supply chain. We're an AI-native company built to solve the systemic data problem that's held logistics back for decades. Our Logistics Data Platform turns fragmented, unstructured data into a trusted foundation that fuels automation, financial clarity, and decision intelligence at scale.

Our momentum is gaining national recognition. Loop was recently named to LinkedIn's 2026 Top Startups list , ranking #1 in Chicago, #4 in San Francisco, and earning a spot on the national list reflecting our growth, innovation, and the exceptional talent and culture driving our success.

Today, Loop serves >20% of the Fortune 100, manages over $30B in supply chain spend, and helps its clients save hundreds of millions of dollars each year.

We recently closed a $95M Series C and are backed by leading investors including Valor Equity Partners, Founders Fund, 8VC, Index Ventures, J.P. Morgan, and more than 50 industry-leading angel investors.

Our team brings deep expertise from Uber, Google, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, Flexport, C3 AI, VMware, Box, UPS, and C.H. Robinson and we're looking for builders who want to help shape what comes next.

About the Role

You will find, evaluate, and close acquisitions for Loo. We have acquired and transformed multiple businesses of increasing scale and you will play a key role in taking this strategy to the next level.

You will own the full deal lifecycle: sourcing proprietary opportunities, building relationships with founders and owners, underwriting businesses, leading diligence, and driving transactions to close. We have made significant investments in separate infrastructure to integrate the businesses post-close, but you will stay close to each business post-close and be responsible for the strategy’s success.

There are no layers between you and the work. You run your own processes, build your own relationships, and bring recommendations directly to the CEO, board of directors, and leadership team. The structure is flat because the work demands it.

As Loop grows, this role scales with it. You will build deep expertise in supply chain services and develop a network of owners, bankers, and operators, and help shape the M&A strategy.

This is an in-person role based in New York, with the expectation of being in the office 4+ days per week.
