Sr. Project Manager, M&A Integration
Weber Logistics · Santa Fe Springs, CA · 1 mo ago
On-siteProject ManagementFull-time
Key Responsibilities
- Own and maintain the M&A integration task library and playbook across all active transactions, translating deal-specific requirements into workstream plans with clear owners, milestones, and dependencies.
- Run the executive integration operating cadence, including weekly workstream stand-ups, biweekly leadership integration reviews, and monthly steering committee updates, producing concise, decision-ready materials for leadership and the Stellex sponsor.
- Track integration risks, issues, and open decisions to closure; escalate blockers early with a recommended path forward rather than a status flag.
- Partner with FP&A/Pricing, Sales, Operations, HR, and IT workstream leads to sequence Day-1, Day-100, and full-integration milestones for each acquired entity.
- Maintain the cross-target facility and integration dashboard, keeping real estate, headcount, systems, and customer-transition data current and audit-ready.
- Support the pre-close-to-post-close handoff: work with the deal team to translate diligence findings into an integration-ready task backlog before close.
- Travel to acquired facilities to run on-site integration work sessions, validate operational assumptions, and troubleshoot issues in person.
- Build and maintain reporting tools that give leadership real-time visibility into integration health across every active deal.
- Identify gaps in Weber's integration methodology and drive continuous improvement of the playbook as the platform scales.
Required Qualifications
- 5–8+ years of project or program management experience, including at least 2–3 years specifically in M&A integration, an integration management office (IMO), or post-merger integration.
- Demonstrated ability to run multiple concurrent, cross-functional workstreams against tight deal timelines.
- Advanced Excel and PowerPoint skills, with the ability to build trackers, dashboards, and executive-ready materials from scratch.
- Experience working directly with C-suite and private equity sponsor stakeholders, including board or investment-committee-level presentations.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to translate ambiguous, fast-moving deal information into clear, structured plans.
- Bachelor's degree in business, supply chain, finance, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Willingness and ability to travel 30–40%, including multi-day trips, weighted toward active deal windows.
Preferred Qualifications
- PMP, Lean Six Sigma, or an equivalent project management certification.
- Experience in logistics, 3PL, warehousing, transportation, or broader supply chain operations.
- Prior experience at a private-equity-backed portfolio company or on a corporate development / deal team.
- Familiarity with WMS/TMS systems and warehouse operations fundamentals.
- Experience standing up an integration playbook or IMO function from scratch, rather than only executing an existing one.
