ABOUT US SUMMARY
We are not looking for a corporate coordinator who only knows how to follow checklists or pass messages back and forth. We need a high-ownership Post-Merger Integration (PMI) driver.
This hire will be the tactical "boots on the ground" helping us merge, restructure, and stabilize newly acquired businesses under Groundup.ai (Industrial AI/IoT) and MRC Ventures. You must be someone who can land in an unfamiliar market, decipher messy processes, align teams, and execute the integration blueprint independently without constant hand-holding.
What the role actually is:
• 80% Tactical Execution & Setup: Setting up local entities, auditing operations, and driving integration milestones.
• 20% Change Management & Governance: Aligning corporate cultures and standardizing reporting lines back to Singapore HQ.
What "Good" Looks Like
• Speed to Action: You can arrive at a newly acquired company, quickly diagnose operational gaps, and start standardizing processes within the first two weeks.
• Proactive Sourcing of Solutions: You don't wait for a playbook to be handed to you. You build the playbook based on what the business actually needs.
• Deep Probing & Auditing: You don't just take the local team's word for it. You dive into the data, the workflows, and the tools to see if the reality matches the due diligence reports.
• Resilience in Chaos: M&A environments are messy and politically sensitive. You must be highly diplomatic yet exceptionally firm on performance outcomes.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
1. On-Site Setup & International Execution (Overseas Travel)
• Travel frequently to newly acquired companies within Southeast Asia to establish physical, legal, and operational setups.
• Act as the direct on-site representative of the Singapore leadership team, ensuring the parent company's culture, performance benchmarks, and compliance standards are adopted immediately.
2. Post-Merger Blueprint Execution
• Drive the end-to-end 30-60-90 days integration timeline across cross-functional workstreams: Finance, HR/Payroll, IT infrastructure, and Sales operations.
• Standardize reporting structures, financial tools, and operational workflows to match Singapore HQ systems.
• Track integration KPIs and report directly to C-level executives on synergy capture and potential bottlenecks.
3. Stakeholder Alignment & Change Management
• Manage the delicate transition period by aligning local leadership teams with the parent companies' strategic vision.
• Identify and mitigate human capital risks (e.g., retaining key talent, managing corporate friction, restructuring redundant roles).
KEY REQUIREMENTS
• Experience: 4+ years of hands-on experience in M&A Integration (PMI), Management Consulting (Operations/Corporate Finance), or Project Management Office (PMO) inside fast-growing scale-ups.
• Industry Context: Prior experience working within startups, venture builders, deep-tech, or enterprise SaaS environments is highly preferred.
• Execution Capabilities: Proven track record of running complex, multi-stakeholder cross-border projects under tight timelines.
• Mobility: Must hold a valid passport and be completely ready to travel overseas frequently on short notice.
• Mindset: Highly resilient, comfortable working without detailed SOPs, and driven by high accountability for outcomes.
WHAT WE OFFER
• Competitive salary.
• Be part of a growing, dynamic team in the B2B technology space.
• Hybrid work flexibility when not traveling.
• Direct visibility and mentorship under founders and high-level VC operators.
• Full travel allowance and comprehensive coverage for overseas assignments
INTERVIEW PROCESS
• Submit Resume & video introduction
• 2 Rounds interview with COO/CEO
