Making a Difference in the Mid-Sized Business Sector

At Syntra, change is our bread and butter. As part of our M&A team, you will work directly on projects that shape and redefine the mid-sized business sector. From day one, you will assume responsibilities and actively drive progress – for our clients, for the team and for yourself. Every step, every detail and every result counts. We are looking for personalities who are not afraid to challenge the status quo and to stretch themselves. If you would like to work in an environment that challenges and stimulates you in equal measure, Syntra is the right fit for you.

What We Expect

  • 01 Engagement and initiative

    At Syntra, we bring the drive and creativity to tackle challenges independently and develop solutions.

  • 02 A Passion for Progress

    Change is welcome. We are looking for colleagues to design and pursue projects with enthusiasm and curiosity.

  • 03 Flexibility and Teamwork Skills

    Our projects demand flexibility of thought and action. We are team players who want to work independently while growing within a team.

  • 04 An Ambitious Mindset

    We value professional competence just as much as social skills. We expect individual responsibility and the ability to motivate, and lead, colleagues, and clients alike.

What We Offer

    A fair monthly salary is only the beginning. At Syntra, your income will progress individually – through profit-sharing, the company pension scheme, benefits in kind and day-care subsidies.

    We welcome curiosity and a thirst for knowledge. We can support you with comprehensive further education, workshops and training and offer you access to online learning platforms and language courses.

  • 04 Flexibility

    For us, flexible thinking also means flexible working – both in terms of location and working hours. You will work both at our offices in Wetzlar and remotely. We encourage our staff to find a balance between their professional and family lives.

  • 05 Community

    We value not only collective tasks, but collective experiences, too: Events, celebrations following successful transactions and an annual multi-day retreat make space for fun and conversation.

  • 06 Health

    Your health is important to us. This is why we offer healthy, ergonomic workplaces, free gym membership, regular health checks and a company bike if you want one – for your fitness and wellbeing.

What Makes Syntra Different as an Employer? Syntra is different thanks to organizational, cultural, and human factors that are not unusual in themselves, but that are unique in this combination and provide an attractive and motivating working environment.

This begins with the very ownership structure itself: Together with Nachfolgekontor, Syntra Corporate Finance forms the Syntra Group and is owner managed. Not by one person operating alone, but by a team of eight operating partners. Each of the partners takes responsibility for day-to-day business and actively collaborates in the M&A teams. Short channels and flat hierarchies are our everyday reality.

That reality is characterized by challenging and exciting national and international M&A projects. To successfully implement projects for our clients we form small, effective project teams that are tailored to the task at hand. This also means that anyone who joins Syntra and becomes part of our overall team of around thirty-five experts will work front and center from day one – directly in contact with the client and with a high degree of individual responsibility.

This makes for steep learning curves, but it motivates staff and binds them together. Particularly because not only do we work together but we also empower each other, learn from each other, and celebrate our successes together. And we are just as happy doing so spontaneously as at regular events.

Culture and Values

At Syntra, we have a culture based on appreciation and mutual support for each other. This applies not only to our internal relationships, but also to our external relationships. We deal with people based on respect, integrity, honesty, and trust. In this way, we create a working environment where we can actively contribute our respective skills, find synergies, and grow together. Both as individuals and as a team. Always professional, passionate and seeking the very best results for our clients.

What Our Employees Say

 “I am incredibly grateful to have begun my career with Syntra, far from the financial centers. Here, M&A is conducted at the very highest level – by working in partnership and without a dog-eat-dog mentality. I participated in fascinating projects from the word go, I am continuously learning new things and I interact directly with clients and decision-makers.”

Viktoria Derdiyok
Senior Associate

 “Our organization offers the best of both worlds: On the one hand, we have decentralized processes that allow for intensive collaboration in small, closely-knit project teams with a lot of freedom, and on the other hand, we have flat hierarchies, open doors, joint events, and constant general interaction that bind us together and facilitate the transfer of expertise.”

Niklas Poppelreuter
Partner

“There are many things that make working at Syntra valuable and inspiring. Team-based collaboration, for example: We communicate openly, support each other and celebrate our successes together. This motivates us and promotes our team spirit, as well as the personal development of team members. Regular feedback discussions and the opportunity to assume responsibility make for a steep learning curve.”
