Mary Carter
Snr. Approach Consultant
What part do you play in the Entrepreneurs Hub team?
I am part of the outreach team, it’s my job to contact potential acquirers, on behalf of our clients, to find out if they are interested in our current opportunities, to confirm we have their current strategic criteria on file and to build our relationship with them. I also help maintain the Database we use internally and am part of the MHFA team.
What experience do you bring to the table?
I previously worked at another M&A corporate finance company so have lots of experience in M&A outreach. I have also worked in a few different sectors which has given me good insight into how they work and how to go about contacting the right decision makers.
What do you like to get up to outside of work?
I love spending time with my family; My husband, two children and I are all avid gamers and enjoy meeting up with friends for an evening of computer games or a board game. We also love to take the kids to toy fairs or days out at the local arcade or Harry Potter – Warner Bros Studio tour. I am also a massive fan of all things Stephen King and horror/crime/thriller/sci-fi related so will happily sit back with a good book or movie/series in my limited spare time. I am obsessed with the colour Purple too so don’t be surprised if all my things are that colour!
What’s the best thing about working at Entrepreneurs Hub?
I am really lucky to work for a company with a close-knit team that genuinely cares about the job they are doing and the people they work with. We all work really hard and it’s lovely when we occasionally get to spend time together outside of work and celebrate our collective achievements.
I love working on projects, especially seeing the positive end to a project and knowing I have helped to change someone’s life for the better. I also love the variety of tasks I get to do, which keeps work interesting!
You can only listen to one artist or band for the rest of your life. Who is it?
Something in the Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Genre, right now I would say Iron Maiden.
What’s something we might be surprised to learn about you?
I used to play Piano/Keyboard and once played at my end of year school concert, I was the last one to play and I was asked for an encore!
