Technology M&A Delivery Lead (Associate, Contract)

Intelance is an enterprise architecture and technology advisory firm. We work with organisations that grow through acquisition and need experienced people to run the technology side of bringing new businesses in. We are adding proven M&A technology delivery people to our associate panel for current and upcoming work.

Tasks

Run the technology and data side of live acquisitions, from planning through to completion. The work usually includes:

• Getting acquired businesses ready for day one and for steady running afterwards.
• Bringing systems and data together and deciding what to keep, replace or retire.
• Planning and running data migration and testing before go live.
• Keeping the plan, risks, actions and dependencies current and under control.
• Managing suppliers and internal teams so the work stays on track.
• Giving clear progress updates to the integration lead and senior stakeholders.
• This is a practical delivery role. You stay close to the detail rather than only setting direction.

Requirements

What we look for:

• Real experience delivering the technology and data parts of acquisitions.
• A track record across systems integration, application rationalisation and data migration.
• Confidence managing plans, risks and suppliers, and reporting to senior people.
• Enough technical judgement to challenge plans and spot problems early, without needing to be the solution architect.
• Happy to work on client sites in and around London, with some remote working.
• Working through your own limited company, outside IR35, and available for at least six months.

Benefits

Why work with us:

• Long assignments with real continuity.
• Direct client work as part of a small, senior team.
• A steady flow of M&A work as our client base grows.
• Fair day rates agreed for each assignment.
