IT Technical Project Manager – Mergers & Acquisitions

6-month initial contract

London – hybrid working

We are supporting a high-growth organisation undergoing rapid expansion through multiple acquisitions (8‑10 per annum), who are building a specialist M&A IT capability. They are seeking an experienced IT Technical Project Manager to lead complex integration programmes across the full acquisition lifecycle.

This role sits within a dedicated, strategically independent M&A IT team and offers the opportunity to work on multiple concurrent integrations in a fast‑paced, transformation‑led environment. With up to 10 acquisitions planned annually, you will play a critical role in ensuring seamless technical integration and value realisation.

A key focus of this role will be tenant‑to‑tenant migrations (particularly within Microsoft 365/Azure environments), making prior experience in this area essential.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end‑to‑end delivery of M&A IT integration projects, with a strong focus on technical workstreams
  • Own and deliver tenant‑to‑tenant migrations (e.g. M365, Azure AD), ensuring minimal disruption and secure data transition
  • Develop and manage detailed project plans, timelines, budgets, and technical delivery roadmaps
  • Establish and drive governance frameworks, including risk, issue, and dependency management
  • Coordinate cross‑functional stakeholders (IT, Security, Legal, HR, Finance, Operations) and third‑party vendors
  • Support IT due diligence, assessing infrastructure, applications, and data landscapes of target companies
  • Oversee cutover planning, migration execution, hypercare, and post‑integration optimisation
  • Ensure solutions align with enterprise architecture, security, and compliance standards
  • Track and report on KPIs, SLAs, and delivery milestones
  • Provide clear, structured reporting to senior stakeholders and leadership

Requirements

  • Proven experience as an IT Technical Project Manager within M&A, integration, or transformation environments
  • Strong hands‑on experience delivering tenant‑to‑tenant migrations (M365/Azure essential)
  • Solid understanding of cloud platforms, identity management, and enterprise IT infrastructure
  • Experience managing complex technical workstreams and multiple concurrent projects
  • Strong knowledge of delivery methodologies (Agile, PRINCE2, PMP)
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
  • Experience working with third‑party vendors and system integrators
