IT M&A Integration Program Manager (4+ months contract)

Build & Govern the Master Plan: Develop and manage the comprehensive IT integration roadmap, budget, risk register, and executive status reporting from kickoff through cutover.

Manage Cross-System Dependencies: Identify, map, and resolve technical and operational interdependencies across ERP, HRIS, and Infrastructure—specifically around single domain architecture, cloud/M365 tenancy, identity and access management, networking, and endpoint devices.

Lead ERP & HRIS Integration Workstreams: Partner with internal business owners, IT leads, and third-party vendors to align project accounting, financials, payroll, and employee lifecycle workflows between both organizations.

Drive Executive & Vendor Alignment: Serve as the primary bridge between client executive sponsors, internal IT teams, HR/Finance stakeholders, and external implementation partners or MSPs.

Protect Business Continuity: Sequence cutover activities and change management to prevent disruptions to active residential and commercial construction projects, field teams, and billing cycles

IT M&A Integration Track Record: Proven experience leading post-merger IT system integrations at the program level, managing multiple parallel workstreams simultaneously.

ERP & HRIS Implementation Leadership: Hands-on project or program management experience leading full-lifecycle ERP and/or HRIS implementations, migrations, or consolidations.

Working Infrastructure Fluency: Broad technical familiarity with core IT infrastructure (Active Directory/Entra ID, cloud tenancy, network connectivity, security, and endpoint management) sufficient to spot cross-workstream bottlenecks and challenge technical leads.

Program-Level Executive Presence: Strong ability to lead cross-functional teams without direct line authority, escalate risks early, and translate complex technical dependencies into clear business decisions.

Industry Familiarity (Preferred): Prior experience in construction, MEP, engineering, or field-service environments (including familiarity with construction ERPs or field/union payroll complexities) is a strong plus.
