About the Role

We are seeking a dynamic and experienced Senior Manager of Integrations to lead the successful integration of acquired firms within accounting and professional services. This high-impact role is responsible for end-to-end integration management—across operational, cultural, and strategic dimensions—in close collaboration with our local partners, corporate functional teams (finance, IT, HR, compliance, etc.), and leadership teams.

The ideal candidate has practical experience with M&A integration, operational knowledge of accounting firms, outstanding relationship-building skills, and thrives in fast-paced and high-change environments.

• Cross-Functional Coordination: Act as the integration quarterback—coordinating efforts across functional departments and ensuring accountability for deliverables from both corporate and firm-based teams.

• Cultural Integration: Support softer elements of integration, including partner onboarding, firm communications, cultural assimilation, and change management.

• Playbook Execution & Continuous Improvement: Apply and continuously refine our integration playbook. Identify risks, elevate issues early, and develop creative solutions to integration challenges.

• Progress Reporting: Regularly report integration status, risks, and opportunities to the Regional VP, CEO, and firm Managing Partners, and ensure key milestones are tracked and met.

• Regional Alignment: Collaborate with our firms to ensure consistency and best practice sharing across integrations.
