Job description
Role overview
This opportunity is for a Director, People Integration & Enablement with a partner organization in the United States. It is a senior HR leadership role focused on helping a rapidly growing business absorb acquisitions smoothly, compliantly, and with a strong employee experience.
The role blends strategic planning with hands-on delivery across the full acquisition lifecycle, including diligence, Day 1 preparation, post-close stabilization, and the move into steady-state ownership. You will partner closely with HR, Legal, Finance, Operations, IT, and executive leaders to turn deal activity into practical People integration plans. A major part of the job is creating repeatable frameworks, tools, and processes that improve speed, consistency, and scalability across future acquisitions.
This position is best suited to someone who is comfortable in fast-changing M&A settings, can bring order to ambiguity, and knows how to lead cross-functional work in a highly visible environment.
Key responsibilities
• Own the People integration strategy and execution for acquisitions, covering diligence, Day 1 readiness, stabilization, and handoff to business-as-usual teams.
• Set up and coordinate cross-functional integration pods with partners from HRIS, Payroll, Benefits, Legal, Compliance, Operations, IT, Finance, and the business.
• Perform HR diligence and assess workforce-related risk across compensation, benefits, systems, compliance, employee relations, and organization structure.
• Convert diligence findings into integration plans, mitigation actions, and clear requirements for Day 1 execution.
• Lead employee readiness for Day 1 by ensuring communications, system access, benefits guidance, and support resources are in place for acquired employees.
• Support talent integration work such as org design alignment, leadership mapping, retention planning, and culture integration.
• Create and improve templates, playbooks, dashboards, and other scalable tools that standardize future M&A execution.
Requirements
• At least 8 years of progressive experience in HR, HR business partnering, HR operations, HR transformation, or M&A integration.
• Background in post-merger integration, HR diligence, or acquisition-related People transformation.
• Solid working knowledge of HRIS, payroll, benefits, compliance, employee relations, and talent management.
• Experience supporting distributed, multi-site, or field-based workforces in fast-moving operational environments.
• Strong project management capability and the ability to lead complex initiatives through influence.
• Excellent communication skills, including executive updates and messages directed to employees.
• Comfort working in ambiguity, balancing competing priorities, and establishing structure in changing environments.
• Experience in field services, logistics, transportation
