Buying the company was the easy bit.
Creating the value comes next.
Valexis supports PE firms and portfolio companies through post-acquisition integration, helping turn transaction logic and synergy assumptions into an operating business that actually works.
We're looking for experienced M&A Integration professionals who can combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
What you'll do
Depending on the transaction, you'll help lead integration from initial planning through execution and value realisation.
That can include:
- Translating deal rationale into a practical integration thesis and plan
- Establishing the Integration Management Office and governance
- Leading workstreams across operations, commercial, technology, finance, people and organisation
- Defining Day 1, Day 30, Day 100 and longer-term integration priorities
- Identifying, validating and tracking synergies
- Resolving difficult cross-business dependencies and decisions
- Managing integration risks without losing momentum
- Giving management teams, Boards and PE sponsors clear evidence of progress and value delivered
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for
We're interested in people who have experienced the reality of integration rather than simply studied the methodology.
You'll understand that successful integration involves spreadsheets and plans — but also politics, culture, customers, systems, difficult decisions and relentless prioritisation.
You'll ideally bring:
- Significant PMI or M&A transformation experience
- Strong commercial and operational judgement
- Experience of synergy identification and realisation
- Confidence working across functional boundaries
- The ability to operate with senior management and investors
- Enough pragmatism to adapt the integration playbook when reality intervenes
