Principal, Strategy & Operations - M&A

About the role

The Opportunity We’re looking for an experienced M&A operations specialist to drive the execution of Superhuman’s acquisition strategy from due diligence through integration in partnership with Corporate Development and the Superhuman executive team. Acquisitions are a critical component to the company’s growth strategy, making this a high-visibility, high-impact role — and ensuring you’ll be busy!

Responsibilities

• Support deal execution, notably cross-functional due diligence and integration planning
• Define and lead integration governance for future acquisitions
• Get your hands dirty and “pinch hit” by leading core cross-functional workstreams that lack ownership
• Cultivate a community of functional integration leaders across company
• Build and refine playbooks to drive integration excellence
• Outside of integration leadership, act as fractional COO across newly-acquired businesses
• Drive important initiatives, lead incorporation into Superhuman rituals, etc.
• Build out Corp Dev Operations — namely our information systems and pipeline processes
• Play an integral role in strategic projects such as future capital raise, IPO readiness, BOD updates, etc.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in strategy, operations, and/or program management, with at least 5 years of merger integration experience
• A proven ability to manage high-visibility, cross-functional programs with limited oversight
• Exceptional stakeholder management skills — able to build trust quickly with senior leaders and influence without authority
• Clear, crisp communication — especially in moments of ambiguity or tension
• A systems-thinking mindset with strong judgment on how and when to bring structure
• Comfort saying “no,” “not yet,” or “yes, but here’s how” — and doing so without damaging relationships
• Deep organizational awareness, with a high EQ and the instincts of a people whisperer
• Embraces our Superhuman values
• Has a demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal guidance, proactively manages tasks and priorities across multiple projects, analyzes and executes work efficiently, collaborates effectively with cross-functional teams, and thrives in fast-paced, results-driven environments
