Role Overview 

We are seeking a Director/VP– Strategic M&A Integration & Value Realisation to own and lead the People charter across global mergers, acquisitions, and strategic investments. The role owns the end-to-end integration and value delivery lifecycle for large acquisitions and strategic transactions—starting pre-LOI and extending through Day-1, Day-90, and Year-1 outcomes. 

This role exists to ensure that acquisitions are: 

• Assimilated fast 

• Organisationally and culturally integrated 

• Cost- and value-disciplined 

• Measurably accretive to the core business 

The role does not own deal execution. Instead, it ensures that every deal delivers its intended strategic, organisational, and people outcomes, with clear accountability for value realisation. 

Operating at the intersection of People, Strategy, Finance, and Business, this is a high-impact role critical to making inorganic growth a repeatable, disciplined value engine for the organisation. 

Key Responsibilities 

1. Pre-LOI Integration & Org Due Diligence (Strategic Advisory)

Partner closely with SIG Finance, and the CHRO’s office before LOI to assess: 

• Leadership quality, depth, and succession risk 

• Org structure, role overlaps, and decision rights 

• Culture, performance norms, and operating cadence 

• Workforce cost structures, location leverage, and scalability 

Shape integration hypotheses that directly influence: 

• Valuation ceilings 

• Retention vs redundancy strategies 

• Day-1 operating model decisions 

Provide clear, decision-oriented inputs that inform deal structure—not retrospective commentary. 

1. Integration Strategy & Execution Ownership

• Design and own the end-to-end integration strategy across people, org, cost, systems, and culture 

• Lead Day-1 / Day-30 / Day-90 / Year-1 integration plans 

• Drive fast, decisive integration choices; escalate trade-offs when required 

• Ensure integration momentum is sustained without creating prolonged disruption or fatigue
