CASE STUDY CATEGORIES
Interim Integration Director
Sector: Healthcare (Products)
Location: Sydney, NSW
For our private equity client, an investment in a healthcare business with more than 40 retail stores across Australia nationally, was the first step in growing the group through an M&A strategy. Imminent acquisitions, valued at up to $100 million each and across a range of complexities, were in sight, creating opportunities for optimisation, scaling, and synergies across the business.
Issue:
An Integration Director was crucial for the success and growth of the planned M&A strategy. However, filling the permanent role was proving to be challenging. With an acquisition on the cusp of closing, our client decided the best short-term solution was to urgently appoint an Interim Integration Director for a 9 to 12 month period.
Solution:
EIM appointed an Interim Executive within days. Hailing from a COO background in large complex businesses, the Interim Integration Director brought a proven ability to lead the integration of both acquired and divested businesses in a matrix environment. Working closely with the private equity investor and the CFO and COO, the Interim Integration Director created and executed the integration plan, delivered the technology transformation strategy required to align newly acquired targets into a national scalable business, and in addition to all this, identified key optimisation opportunities to create long-term value around systems and processes.
