I am partnering with a highly acquisitive, PE-backed professional services business to appoint an Integration Senior Manager into a key role supporting its continued growth.
Reporting directly to the Head of M&A and supported by two junior team members, you will take ownership of integrating future acquisitions and realising value through revenue and cost levers.
With an established acquisition strategy and integration framework already in place, this is not about designing process. It is about owning integrations, driving them at pace, and ensuring each acquisition delivers its full value-creation potential.
The role:
You will lead integrations end-to-end, often working directly with founders and management teams of successful entrepreneurial businesses. You will need to build trust quickly, bring people with you and ensure each acquisition becomes genuinely embedded within the wider group.
You will:
- Own multiple integrations from completion through to full integration
- Lead and coordinate activity across People, Finance, IT, Operations and Commercial workstreams
- Manage and develop two junior team members, using them to support delivery across the integration portfolio
- Partner closely with founders and leadership teams of acquired businesses
- Drive pace, accountability and delivery across multiple stakeholders
- Identify and deliver cost synergies, revenue opportunities and wider value-creation initiatives
- Lead people and cultural integration, navigating change sensitively but decisively
- Continuously improve the integration approach as the acquisition programme scales
About you:
- Approximately 6-9 years’ experience, potentially gained within:
- A consulting firm, ideally within integration, transformation or value creation
- A carve-out, separation or transaction-related team
- An in-house M&A integration or transformation role within an acquisitive business
- Experience within professional services or another people-led environment is key.
- Just as importantly, this role requires strong EQ and influencing skills. Many acquisitions will involve smaller, founder-led businesses, so success will depend on your ability to build credibility and trust, understand different perspectives and ultimately get people aligned behind what needs to happen.
