Enterprise IT Transition Senior Manager

Enterprise IT Transition Senior Manager

The Opportunity:

Join Booz Allen as an Enterprise IT Transition Senior Manager and establish the CIO’s repeatable capability for technology due diligence, acquisition readiness, post-close integration, and transition services. In this role, you’ll serve as the accountable M&A technology leader from early pipeline engagement through Day 1, stabilization, and the first months of integration. You’ll combine strategic capability leadership with hands-on IT program management to help the CIO perform integrations and divestitures faster, with clearer decision rights, less rework, and more predictable resource demands.

When an M&A event is activated, you’ll serve as the IT Integration Program Manager, standing up governance, coordinating CIO resources, managing risks and decisions, and providing executive-level insight into progress, effort, dependencies, and completion. Due to the nature of work performed within this facility, U.S. citizenship is required.

What You’ll Work On:

Establish and evolve the Enterprise IT Transition Management playbook, including templates, collateral, process documentation, controls, stakeholder responsibilities, and repeatable practices for integrations and divestitures.

Identify repeatable patterns across transactions and recommend improvements to the CIO operating model, governance, tools, and capacity needed to support multiple concurrent integrations or divestitures.

Build trusted relationships with Corporate Development, functional leaders, sector leaders, CIO leadership, and technology stakeholders to support early CIO engagement in the M&A pipeline.

Coordinate structured technology diligence across technology compatibility, operational risk, scalability, data, infrastructure, applications, vendors, contracts, and transition dependencies.

Translate diligence findings into executive-ready implications, decisions, estimated level of effort, risks, dependencies, and recommended actions.

Create and maintain structured post-close plans that support Day 1, stabilization, and IT systems and services alignment during the first months of integration.

Establish readiness criteria and decision gates for identity, endpoint, collaboration, applications, data, service management, network, support, and business continuity.

Lead IT integration program execution once an M&A event is triggered, including governance cadence, steering forums, integrated plans, RAID management, decision logs, status reporting, escalation paths, testing, cutover, communications, and hyper care.

Align CIO and business stakeholders with different priorities, timelines, and definitions of readiness while translating executive decisions into delivery direction and delivery realities into decision-ready options.

Lead, coach, and develop team members responsible for M&A support, transition planning, program management, readiness tracking, exercises, execution support, metrics, postmortems, and continuous improvement.
