Baton equips business owners and buyers with a modern, data‑driven marketplace to buy or sell, offering valuations grounded in real financials and allowing them to close deals 2x faster than the industry norm. We recently closed our Series A to scale this vision further. We are proud to be building in person in New York City.
Rapid momentum — We’re gaining traction quickly & our valuation tools, off‑market listings, and streamlined closing processes are changing how small business deals happen at scale.
Ownership from day one — As a small, lean team, every hire carries outsized impact; from shaping product direction to building a culture of customer-first execution.
In-person energy & collaboration — Based in NYC, we foster a tight-knit, energetic team environment where voice matters and decisions move fast.
Mission with heart — We’re clearing the path for small business owners to take meaningful steps forward by providing them clarity, speed, and confidence when it matters most.
World-class investors & runway for impact — Backed by Obvious, Giant Ventures, Divergent, Trust Fund, Burst Capital, Bloomberg Beta, and others, our Series A sets a deliberate course for growth and meaningful scale.
Competitive compensation & perks — Expect market‑competitive pay, equity, fully-covered health benefit options, flexible time off, commuter perks, in-office snacks, and a true culture of low ego and high respect.
As an M&A Advisor, you’ll own and manage a book of deals that range in size from $400K to $10M+. You'll work with owners on listing strategy, offer negotiations, deal structuring, and diligence. Our advisors service small business acquisitions with the same level of sophistication as sell-side investment banks, while also providing a world class experience for owners who are likely going through their first ever exit. Lastly, as an advisor you will partner closely with our executive team, sales team, and product team to create winning and scalable systems that power Baton's growth.
