Senior Finance Business Partner – Hybrid – Saint-Laurent (Montreal)

About Us:

Valsoft acquires and grows small to medium-sized software businesses that sell software solutions in niche markets or industries. Our acquired companies operate in over 20 industries such as automotive, hospitality, e-commerce, transportation & logistics, and media & broadcasting. Since 2015, we have acquired over 90 businesses, and we have over 3,000 employees across 20+ countries.

Aspire Software, the operational arm of Valsoft, is committed to enhancing and growing our companies by investing our time, resources, and knowledge.

Did You Know That:

• Unlike private equity and venture capital firms, we want to buy and retain companies indefinitely. That’s right; we don’t sell businesses. We form a strategic alliance with the existing management team.
• Earlier this year, we closed an additional US $170 million in growth funding.
• In 2023 alone, we made 26 acquisitions – 12 in North America and 14 across Europe, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
