The business is undergoing a significant period of transformation and growth, having expanded substantially in recent years, with an ambitious strategy to continue growing through both organic development and acquisitions. This is a strategically important role, responsible for ensuring newly acquired businesses are successfully integrated into the wider group, with a clear focus on delivering the operational, financial and commercial value identified through each transaction. The Role You will take ownership of the integration programme following an acquisition, coordinating multiple business functions and ensuring that agreed actions, milestones and synergies are delivered. A typical integration will involve approximately 3 months of pre-deal planning followed by 9 months of post-deal execution , although programmes can range from 6-18 months depending on the complexity of the acquisition. An established integration playbook is already in place, covering approximately 12 workstreams and 30-50 actions across functions including: Finance Operations Manufacturing Engineering Supply Chain HR Sales Marketing You will be responsible for bringing these workstreams together, maintaining momentum and ensuring senior stakeholders remain accountable for delivery.

You will be comfortable: Leading complex, cross-functional programmes without direct reports. Managing and influencing 20+ stakeholders. Challenging senior leaders and holding them accountable. Working autonomously and taking ownership of outcomes. Operating in a fast-moving, acquisitive environment. Balancing structured programme management with pragmatism and flexibility.
