Director of Business Strategy

Job Description

Meet ACQ :

At Acquisition.com, we’re a team of entrepreneurs on a mission to make real business education available to everyone. There are 34 million small and medium businesses in the United States. They’re the backbone of the economy, but many will never reach their full potential because the education available to them is outdated, impractical, and built for classrooms instead of companies.

We’re fixing that by giving founders and business owners the tools, knowledge, and support they need to grow. The proof is in our results :

• Built an Advisory Practice that’s already served more than 3,500 clients in its first year
• Broke the world record for non-fiction book sales in 24 hours with $100M Money Models
• Scaled to nine figures in 18 months without any outside capital

We believe in high standards, hard work, and helping others win. If that resonates, you’ll feel at home here.

Role :

The Director of Business Strategy is a builder at heart — someone who has taken small businesses or startups from messy, ambiguous beginnings to real, sustainable scale. You’ve either done it from the inside as an operator or alongside founders as a consultant, advisor, or agency lead.

In this role, you’ll work directly with founders to figure out what’s really holding their business back — and what to do about it. You’ll come into each workshop with a clear hypothesis, pressure-test it live with the client, and walk away with a focused game plan to grow their business. You’ll also help turn those insights into repeatable frameworks and tools we can use across our portfolio and clientele.

Here’s what you’ll actually do :

To win in this role, you need real business acumen, strong pattern recognition, and the ability to think on your feet. You should genuinely enjoy working with people, teaching, and solving problems with them - not for them.

Why This Role Matters (for You) :

If you’re hungry to grow - this is your shot.

You’ll get exposed to dozens of real businesses, real problems, and real founders. That means your skill set grows exponentially faster than it would inside a single company. You’ll also build a killer network and get a front-row seat to what’s working (and what’s not) across industries.

More importantly you’ll get to help good entrepreneurs become great. And if you’re someone who finds meaning in that kind of work, you’ll love this role.

If you’re not ready for a fast paced entrepreneurial environment, this isn’t the role for you.
