Head of Mergers and Acquisitions

As the Head of Merger & Acquisitions and Strategy at our global company specializing in automotive wiring harnesses, electronic sensors, and mechatronic systems, you will play a pivotal role in driving our inorganic growth initiatives on a global scale while shaping our long-term business strategy. Your focus will be on identifying, evaluating, and executing acquisitions, joint ventures, and strategic partnerships that align with our vision of becoming a leading technology-driven supplier in the automotive industry. Your responsibilities will include strategic planning and deal origination, where you will identify sectors, geographies, and technologies that align with our strategic objectives, develop an M&A roadmap, and establish relationships with key stakeholders in the investment and startup ecosystems. You will also be responsible for evaluating potential deals, leading internal discussions, and working with finance and legal teams on deal structuring and risk analysis. In the due diligence and execution phase, you will lead cross-functional diligence processes, coordinate stakeholders, and negotiate agreements. Post-acquisition, you will support or lead integration efforts to ensure operational, cultural, and financial alignment, as well as track performance metrics to drive value creation. Additionally, you will act as a key advisor to the CEO and Board on inorganic options, building frameworks and governance processes to standardize and de-risk our deal-making activities. Your strategic impact areas will focus on growth acceleration, portfolio optimization, innovation access, and global expansion through strategic acquisitions and partnerships. To be successful in this role, you should have 15-20 years of experience in M&A, corporate development, strategy consulting, or investment banking, with a strong track record in deal-making within the automotive, industrials, mobility-tech, or EV ecosystem. Experience in successful JV formations, acquisitions, and post-deal integration is essential, and exposure to working with promoter-driven organizations would be advantageous.,
