Our Story

Archie, the Founder & Managing Director of Prepped, started his career in Audit at EY and quickly realised he wanted to be involved in Mergers & Acquisitions.

After spending hours scrolling through M&A related forums and forking out thousands on courses, Archie still wasn’t confident that he understood exactly what work was performed in the Mergers & Acquisitions team, yet alone how to successfully make the transition.

Fortunately Archie had some connections that worked in the team who were generous enough to spend time with coaching & guiding him through the process.

After successfully making the transition into the Strategy & Transactions team Archie went on to lead an in-house M&A team through significant transactions that changed the course of the business.

Now you can find all his consolidated learnings in this course, fast-tracking your path to Mergers & Acquisitions.
