At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive. We are looking for a high-impact Legal Operations Program Manager to join our expanding Legal Operations Team and sit at the center of our mergers & acquisitions (M&A) activity! This is a strategy-to-execution role focused on post-acquisition integration: bringing acquired companies’ legal teams, legal entities, contracts, litigation and matters, outside counsel relationships, and compliance obligations into the Lyft Legal organization. To be clear, this is a business and organizational M&A integration role, not a systems or technology integration role. You will serve as the operating backbone for Legal across our most strategic transactions, owning the legal workstream of M&A integration in partnership with Lyft’s Corporate Development Integration Management Office (IMO), along with the intake and governance layer that connects the Legal team to deal work. The ideal candidate is detail oriented, proactive, and able to drive outcomes across multiple concurrent acquisitions in ambiguous, high-stakes environments with a collaborative and transparent approach. Some key areas include: M&A integration program management, program leadership across concurrent deals, cross-functional and deal team engagement, outside counsel and vendor management across jurisdictions, legal entity management and governance, and building a repeatable M&A integration operating model that scales with company growth. This position reports to the Head of Legal Operations. As the company scales, the volume and complexity of strategic transactions — acquisitions, cross-border expansion, and new market entry — continues to increase. This role establishes a centralized operating model for the legal side of M&A integration that ensures: • Acquisitions are integrated into Lyft Legal with discipline, completeness, and a clear critical path • Legal is embedded early in each deal, from diligence through post-close, with strong planning-to-execution across multiple teams to deliver strong business results and manage risk • The organization scales without inheriting unmanaged legal, contractual, or compliance risk from acquired companies Responsibilities: • M&A Integration Program Management • Own the legal workstream of M&A integration across global acquisitions, from integration planning during diligence through post-close, in partnership with Corporate Development’s Integration Management Office (IMO) • Build legal M&A integration roadmaps with clear dependencies and critical path, covering people, entities, contracts, matters, and compliance obligations, and stand up governance, reporting, and escalation frameworks for each acquisition • Prepare and lead leadership readouts on the legal integration status of each acquisition in scope • Track the retirement of inherited legal risk and post-close obligations, and codify repeatable legal M&A integration playbooks to improve speed, quality, and predictability • Program Leadership & Execution • Act as the control tower across concurrent acquisitions, ensuring legal integration work is resourced, sequenced, and prioritized appropriately across teams • Build and manage integrated plans, milestones, and KPIs, and drive execution across multiple complex, cross-functional deal workstreams simultaneously • Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks, holding teams accountable while maintaining strong cross-functional relationships • Maintain high-quality documentation, decision logs, and scalable processes • Cross-Functional Engagement & Deal Support • Partner
