Job Description SummaryThe Finance Integration Director is a senior individual contributor and team leader within the Integration Management Office (IMO), responsible for driving all finance-related work streams across the full M&A lifecycle. The role spans pre-close due diligence through post-close integration, partnering directly with Corporate Development, the CFO organization, and acquired-company finance teams to deliver seamless, value-preserving integrations.

The Director reports to the VP of Corporate Development and Strategy and will typically manage multiple transactions simultaneously at various stages of the lifecycle.
