Senior M&A Manager - Sandvik Machining Solutions

Sandvik Machining Solutions (SMS) is on an exciting growth journey – in 2021 alone, the Sandvik Group closed 14 M&A deals – and we’re now looking for a senior M&A Manager to continue to drive this rapid inorganic expansion of one of the leading companies in the world. Joining our experienced team of industry experts, ex top-tier management consultants and bankers, you’ll gain extraordinary insights and exposure to our business and its ambitious leaders. We welcome you to an open, agile and action-oriented environment, where we set the bar high and achieve our goals together.
You’ll join a team working closely with our divisions in their drive for add-on acquisitions and increased M&A activity, and we believe that with your expertise and excellent way of collaborating you’ll be the one amplifying our capacity to run multiple projects in parallel.
Your job
As our senior M&A Manager, you’re responsible for all stages of deal execution, from screening to integrating companies. In the mission to manage all parts of a transaction, you act in close collaboration with your peers in your senior M&A team. You take ownership of several projects and are a driving force that ensures momentum and quality throughout the process.
Being accountable for the M&A process, you lead negotiations, due diligence and coordination with all internal stakeholders. In addition, you assist our business in managing external stakeholders such as investment banks, consulting firms and other partners. As an area expert, you’re of course able to review information and draw conclusions from all necessary analysis required in any M&A transaction, with emphasis on deep understanding of accounting and valuation. Just as important as working closely with Sandvik Machining Solutions’ divisions in their drive for add-on acquisitions, is being a partner to our newly formed business area segment Sandvik Manufacturing Solutions, focusing on software and additive manufacturing.
The location for this position is globally flexible. Our headquarters is in Stockholm, Sweden.
Your profile
We’re looking for someone with five to ten years’ M&A experience from a leading investment banking or management consulting firm or similar. It’s also advantageous with a background in a similar M&A role within a global matrix organization. Previous experience from the manufacturing industry or the technology sector is beneficial, but not required. As we’re a global player, you communicate fluently in English, both verbally and in writing.
We consider integrity, openness and accountability as cornerstones for us to deliver value in both short and long term. We also appreciate your ability to work both independently and as a team member in a fast-paced environment. You’re exceptionally good at prioritizing and responding to changing demands from multiple sources, and you have a sincere desire to learn and grow in your role, as well as to inspire continuous improvement. With your outstanding people skills, you easily interact and build networks with stakeholders at all levels.
