Job description
The Integration Manager deploys on-site to rapidly learn how an acquired location operates-typically with 1 to 2 weeks of lead time before close-and serves as the hands-on executor who makes the transition work in the field. This person leads the core pre- and post-acquisition integration meetings that keep the deal moving: connecting legacy company departments (Finance/Accounting, HR, Safety/Compliance, Systems/IT, Operations) with the right counterparts at the acquired business, surfacing gaps early, assigning owners, and driving follow-through. When needed, the Integration Manager can step in and run the day-to-day business for 1 to 2 weeks while coordinating the work required to plug the operation into the larger company. The Integration Manager owns on-site execution; the ASIM provides air cover to clear roadblocks, secure resources, and drive escalations/decisions. The outcome is a stable site that the region can run with clear owners, routines, and open items., * Deploy on-site ahead of close to assess how the business runs (people, routes, customers, equipment, cash flow/billing rhythm, local constraints) and identify what must be true for a successful Day 1.
- Lead pre- and post-acquisition integration meetings (on-site and virtual), ensuring the right legacy departments are connected to the right acquired-company counterparts and that decisions/next steps are captured and executed.
- Build and maintain a stakeholder map and āwho-to-callā directory (owners, dispatch, shop/maintenance, customer service, billing, safety) to accelerate issue resolution.
- Serve as the on-site operational quarterback during transition, ensuring safety, service continuity, and customer commitments are maintained.
- Step into day-to-day leadership as needed for short windows (typically 1 to 2 weeks) by coordinating dispatch/route execution, yard/fleet readiness, and frontline issue resolution.
- Stand up core operating routines and controls (daily huddles, route/dispatch cadence, customer service workflows, invoicing/billing handoffs, basic reporting).
- Coordinate transition tasks with functional partners (Finance/Accounting, HR, Safety/Compliance, and Systems/IT as needed) and ensure dependencies are sequenced and completed.
- Use the ASIM as air cover to remove blockers and secure decisions/resources while you drive on-site execution.
- Troubleshoot operational and process issues; triage incidents quickly, implement practical workarounds, and escalate blockers with clear options and impact.
- Execute a clean regional transition: document local context, open items, and confirmed owners/timelines before leaving the site.
Tools & Reporting
- Maintain the site integration plan and task tracking (e.g., Monday.com boards) and keep status current as the on-site system of record.
- Provide concise progress reporting to ASIM and Acquisitions & Integration leadership (milestones completed, blockers/risks, decisions needed, ETA to handoff).
- Complete integration readiness/closure assessments and sign-offs prior to regional handoff.

- Acquisition & Systems Integration Manager (ASIM)
- Regional/Field Operations leadership (RVPs, Area Managers, site leadership)
- Finance & Accounting (billing, AR/AP transition, reporting)

Requirements

- Experience leading on-site execution, operational transitions, or implementations (industry experience welcomed but not required).

- Willingness to travel extensively and work on-site during integration deployments., * Experience in environmental services (e.g., solid waste, recycling, hauling, disposal/landfill, transfer stations, or related field operations) is strongly preferred.
- Experience leading field operations through change (e.g., new leadership transition, process standardization, route/dispatch changes, customer onboarding/migration, or rapid stabilization in a service business).
- Familiarity with integration playbooks, readiness checklists, and change management in a multi-site environment., * On-site execution leadership and operational discipline
