Post-Deal Integration Manager

We are seeking an M&A professional focused on executing integration and separation programmes across acquisitions, divestments, and carve‑outs. The role blends programme leadership with hands‑on execution, requiring a strong grasp of how finance, operations, technology, and people functions come together during a transaction. You will operate as a trusted partner to senior client stakeholders, often working directly alongside CFOs and their leadership teams to ensure mergers or acquisitions are implemented effectively, and business continuity is maintained post‑deal.

• Translate transaction objectives into clear execution plans, including Day 1 readiness, post‑close stabilisation, and longer‑term transformation milestones
  
• Coordinate multiple workstreams (finance, technology, operations, HR, commercial) to ensure activities are aligned, sequenced correctly, and delivered on time
  
• Establish governance structures, reporting frameworks, and tracking mechanisms to provide transparency on progress, risks, and dependencies
  
• Oversee the implementation of Transition Service Agreements
  
• Proactively identify execution risks and operational challenges, driving mitigation strategies and escalating where required
  
• Support organisational change efforts by ensuring clear communication, stakeholder alignment, and adoption of new processes and structures
  

• 
  
• Have demonstrated experience delivering integrations, separations, or large‑scale transformations in complex M&A environments
  
• Strong understanding of finance, systems, and operational processes
  
• Experience working across cross‑functional teams in fast‑paced, high‑pressure environments
  
• Familiarity with programme governance, PMO structures, and structured delivery methodologies
  
• Background in consulting, advisory, or corporate transformation environments is advantageous
  
• Excellent communication skills
  

• 
  
• Degree in Business, Finance, Management, or a related discipline
  
• Professional certifications (e.g., ACA, ACCA, CFA, PMP, Prince2) are beneficial
