Job Description

Are you an experienced project manager with a track record in post-merger integration?

Elevation Recruitment Group are working with a fast-growing, investor-backed technology business to recruit an M&A Integrations Project Manager on a 9-month fixed-term contract.

The Role

This is a high-impact, hands-on position sitting at the heart of the business's growth agenda. You'll own and drive the full integration lifecycle across a portfolio of concurrent acquisitions - from Day 1 mobilisation through stabilisation, Target Operating Model design, synergy realisation and formal integration closure.

Reporting to the Program Director, you'll act as the primary coordination point between the parent business and acquired organisations, leading cross-functional stakeholder engagement and ensuring every integration is delivered with clarity, pace and care.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Own end-to-end integration delivery across multiple concurrent projects
  • Develop and maintain clear integration roadmaps aligned to strategic objectives and synergy targets
  • Lead Target Operating Model (TOM) design and organisational change activity
  • Manage RAID logs, escalate risks and blockers, and drive mitigating actions
  • Track and report on synergy delivery, milestones and integration progress at senior stakeholder level
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of the M&A integration methodology and toolkit

What We're Looking For:

  • Proven experience in M&A or post-merger integration (PMI) delivery - this is essential
  • Strong programme/project management background in complex, cross-functional environments
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and influencing skills across all levels
  • Effective change management capability, including communications planning
  • Ability to manage competing priorities across multiple concurrent workstreams
  • Formal PM qualification (PRINCE2, PMP, APM) desirable but not essential
  • Background in professional services environments advantageous

The Details:

  • 9-month Fixed Term Contract
  • Sheffield - hybrid working
  • Immediate/near-term start preferred

If you're available for a fixed-term contract and have the M&A integration expertise to hit the ground running, we'd love to hear from you.
