Welcome, and thank you for visiting.My name is Jerom Geerts. I’m conducting a focused search to acquire and operate one great, people-focused business; a company with a strong foundation, a dedicated team, loyal customers, and a proud history. My goal is to steward that business into its next phase of growth and success while preserving the values and relationships that made it special in the first place.If you’re a business owner considering succession options, an intermediary with relevant opportunities, or simply interested in the search process, I invite you to explore further or reach out directly. I’d be keen to hear from you.

I’ve grown up around entrepreneurs, with my grandparents and father being active in agriculture and international business/startups; and that’s shaped a lifelong drive to one day run a business of my own.I’m a commercial leader with 12 years of experience in global shipping and mining sales. I’ve led high-stakes negotiations, managed sizeable sales books, and built long-term partnerships across industries.Currently, I’m finalising MBA at Melbourne Business School whilst engaging in my search for the perfect SME. After years in large organisations, I’m now looking to transition into a more hands-on role; leading a meaningful business that creates jobs, builds community, and solves real problems.

I’m conducting a search focused on great people centric businesses in Australia. I’m looking to acquire and grow an established, profitable business with the following characteristics:• Revenue: $3–15 million
• Industry: B2B services, light manufacturing, or niche industrials
• Ownership: Founder-led or family-owned, with a desire for succession
• Attributes: Recurring revenue, mission-critical offerings, a stable team, and/or strong marginsI bring hands-on leadership, a deep respect for legacy, and a long-term outlook. I care deeply about the people behind the business. I’m not interested in flipping businesses; I intend to fully commit, both operationally and personally, to the success of the company I acquire.Whether you’re an owner planning for retirement or an advisor representing one, I approach every conversation with transparency, curiosity, and care. Let's talk!
I’d love to connect.📍 Based in: Melbourne, Australia
