Senior Integration Manager, M&A
Do you thrive in complex global environments where acquisitions are turned into lasting business value? This could be your next step.
Why Sandvik?
M&A is a strategic priority for Sandvik, and integration is critical to realizing value. In this role, you have the opportunity to:
- Play a central role in integrations that shape business area Machining’s growth and portfolio.
- Partner with senior leaders and experienced colleagues across operations, finance, industry, and consulting throughout our global organization.
- Drive structured, pragmatic integrations across divisions and geographies, with a strong focus on add-on acquisitions.
Your mission
As Senior Integration Manager in the Machining M&A team, you strengthen our ability to integrate acquisitions across the business as M&A activity continues to grow. Working closely with business leaders, you help secure value creation and ensure acquired companies are successfully integrated into Sandvik. In addition to leading selected integrations, you serve as a subject matter expert in integration management, helping to develop our ways of working, governance, and capabilities across the organization.
You also play a key role in connecting and developing Sandvik’s community of integration practitioners across divisions, promoting knowledge sharing, consistency, and continuous improvement. You report to the Head of Mergers and Acquisitions within Machining.
Job responsibilities
Key responsibilities include:
- Accelerate value creation by protecting revenue, delivering synergies, and driving operational improvements with minimal disruption.
- Support leadership teams in designing post-merger operating models and organizations, including change management, culture integration, IT enablement, and communication.
- Coach and support divisional integration managers by strengthening integration capabilities and driving consistency in execution and governance. You also help build a strong integration community across the business, facilitating collaboration, knowledge sharing, and capability development among integration practitioners.
- Guide business owners, divisional leadership teams, and functional experts through integration planning, governance, prioritization, and execution during critical phases. While divisions own the business integration outcomes, you provide structure, expertise, challenge, and support to help ensure successful execution and value realization.
- Lead selected integrations and divestitures end-to-end by defining integration strategy, ensuring Day 1 readiness, and establishing and leading the Integration Management Office (IMO).
- Align divisional leadership, functional experts, and key stakeholders through effective governance, clear decision forums, disciplined ways of working, and a common integration methodology.
Location and flexibility
Stockholm, Sweden, is the preferred location for this position, although some flexibility may be considered. Regular presence at our Stockholm office is important, and international travel is a natural part of the role.
Your profile
You’re effective in complex, fast-moving environments and combine strategic perspective with hands-on execution. You bring extensive experience in international M&A and post-merger integration, and you’re confident engaging in both operational manufacturing discussions and presentations to senior management or boards.
You also bring:
- A background in management consulting, corporate development, private equity operations, or a similar role with significant exposure to M&A and integration. Experience from operating companies and leading integration work within industrial or similarly complex organizations is a strong advantage.
- Hands-on experience leading IMOs and driving integrations across functions and geographies - from due diligence and Day 1 readiness through execution and value realization.
- Experience leading through influence, engaging diverse stakeholder groups, and building professional networks or communities that support capability development and knowledge sharing.
- Strong analytical skills combined with stakeholder management, people leadership, and clear, confident communication.
- Fluency in English, both verbal and written. Additional languages are a plus, especially Swedish.
You’re pragmatic and collaborative, with sound judgment and high integrity. You enjoy bringing people together around a common goal, building trust across organizational boundaries, and helping others succeed in complex integration environments. You build trust quickly and maintain momentum as priorities evolve, while staying focused on business outcomes and the people involved.
