About The Role
We are looking for an experienced Senior Project Manager to support SITA for Aircraft's inorganic growth agenda, working closely with the central Merger and Acquisition (M&A) team, which leads due diligence and deal execution. This role brings structure, pace, and clarity to our M&A workstreams. You will act as the operational backbone of our M&A projects: coordinating business-unit contributors, tracking actions and risks, preparing leadership materials, and ensuring the central M&A team gets what they need from the business, on time and in the right format. The role requires strong project management, sound business judgment, excellent stakeholder management, and the ability to turn complex commercial, product, and operational inputs into clear updates for senior leadership.
What You Will Do
Support the M&A pipeline:
Help maintain and enrich the pipeline of acquisition and partnership opportunities aligned with the SITA for Aircraft (SFA) strategy.
Contribute to market scans and initial screening of potential targets.
Keep a structured view of priorities, status, and next steps for SFA leadership.
Run M&A Project Management Of Business Unit-side Workstreams
Build and maintain workplans, timelines, actions, risks, and dependencies.
Coordinate SFA contributors across Product, Finance, Commercial, Technology, and Operations.
Ensure clear ownership, follow-up, and decision tracking throughout the deal lifecycle.
Support The Central M&A Team On Due Diligence
Act as SFA point of coordination for due diligence requests from the central M&A team and external advisors.
Organize product, commercial, technical, and operational input; prepare agendas, information packs, and target-facing sessions.
Track relevant findings, open points, and action items.
Contribute To Business Case And Synergy Work
Work with Finance and Product leaders to gather input on revenue opportunities, cost implications, investment needs, and synergies.

Support Integration Planning
