About the Role
Innovaccer is growing, and M&A is a key pillar of our growth strategy. Our acquisitions are strategically aligned to enhance Innovaccer’s core solutions and accelerate entry into new markets. We are seeking a Senior Associate-M&A Integration who will play a critical role in integrating newly acquired companies. This role involves working closely with target companies from the time a Definitive Agreement is signed through a 9–12 month integration period, ensuring a smooth transition into Innovaccer’s operations. The goal is to align these companies with Innovaccer’s business model so they can deliver measurable business value.
This is a high-impact, fast-paced role, as we are pursuing multiple acquisitions. You will be responsible for bridging the acquired company’s executive leadership with Innovaccer’s cross-functional teams, including engineering, marketing, customer success, and sales.
