• Identify integration gaps between portfolio company systems and Banyan's ERP environment and prioritize remediation activities.
• Ensure acquired entities are correctly established and maintained within Banyan's operational and reporting systems.
• Own integration compliance requirements, including VAT registration, KYC/AML processes, entity filing obligations, and contract continuity reviews.
• Coordinate with legal, tax, and external advisors to resolve compliance matters and ensure timely completion of regulatory requirements.
• Establish reporting calendars, governance structures, and stakeholder communication frameworks for each integration.
• Document key business processes and develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for acquired entities.
• Capture post-integration lessons learned and implement process improvements to enhance future integration cycles.
• Support onboarding, training, and development of future team members as the function scales.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives by leveraging automation, standardization, and technology-enabled solutions to improve integration efficiency.

Qualifications for Success:

• 3–5 years of experience in finance, operations, M&A, post-acquisition integration, consulting, or related disciplines.
• Professional accounting qualification (ACCA, CA, ACMA/CIMA), either qualified or actively pursuing qualification, will be preferred.
