Integration Project Manager
About the role
The Integrations Project Manager will report directly to the Chief Financial Officer and will play a critical part in the company's high-velocity acquisition strategy. This role is essential for ensuring every acquisition is seamlessly integrated into the CXponent ecosystem, both technically, commercially, and culturally.
Core Responsibilities
Cross-Functional PMO Leadership: Build, own, and iterate on the CXponent Integration Playbook covering the entire lifecycle from Due Diligence to Day 100. Manage the master project plan involving all workstreams: IT, Sales, Marketing, HR, Finance, and Legal. Hold executive leaders accountable to integration timelines and synergy targets.
Commercial & Growth Integration (Sales & Marketing): Partner with Sales leadership to integrate CRM data, align commission structures, and ensure "cross-sell" opportunities are identified immediately. Coordinate with Marketing to execute rebranding strategies, website migrations, and client-facing communication plans. Ensure legacy clients experience zero friction during the transition to the CXponent service model.
Technical & Digital Infrastructure (IT): Lead the "cutover" of technical environments, including email (O365/Google), cloud infrastructure, and security protocols. Identify redundant software and consolidate tools into CXponent’s core tech stack to drive operational efficiency.
Operational & Financial Unity (Ops, Finance, HR): Work with the CFO to migrate acquired firms onto our unified accounting and ERP platforms for clean PE-level reporting. Collaborate with the Director of People & Culture to harmonize the Ideal Experience.
Qualifications
Project Management Excellence: 5+ years of experience managing complex, cross-functional, multi-stakeholder projects; PMP or similar certification is a plus.
PE & M&A Experience: You have worked in a high-growth, Private Equity-backed environment and understand the urgency of M&A integration.
"A Player" Builder Mindset: You enjoy building playbooks from scratch and iterating relentlessly until they are perfect.
Strategic & Tactical: You are comfortable tracking 500+ line items in a project plan but can also present a high-level status summary to the Executive Team.
Driven & High-Stakes: You view integration as a "seamless engine for business potential" rather than a checklist.
Pay
The pay range for this role is $100,000 - $130,000 USD per year (Chicago).
