Job Description

ERP Implementation Manager

Based in Central London, MRK Associates are working with a PE backed cutting edge recycling company who are looking to recruit an ERP Implementation Manager to join and run an imperative 6-9 month project to start ASAP working outside of IR35. The role will most likely work 2-3 days in the office but this can be heavily at this person's discretion.

This job would suit a strong implementation manager or project manager to work with the Finance Director on assessing, selecting and implementing a new ERP system and will be responsible for owning and delivering the full lifecycle of the project.

Our client is a hugely exciting business with significant funding in place that is commercialising new technology and building new sites in multiple locations around the world. This ERP system is one of the first steps in ensuring all key processes and systems are set up across the organisation as key milestones are met.

The successful individual must have previous experience of running an ERP implementation project in a manufacturing environment ensuring the system works across all functions of the business or site. Ideally you will have knowledge of more than one ERP in order to be able to assist the selection of the new system but expert knowledge of one ERP would be welcomed if you are able to illustrate why this ERP may work for the business. You should have a proven track record of delivering results and meeting tight deadlines whilst have strong communication skills to work with key stakeholders.

Job responsibilities:

  • Acting as the ERP Project Manager, gathering and agreeing the requirements for the new system
  • Working closely with the Finance Director to lead the RFI and RFP processes for potential vendors
  • Acting as the SME for the final selection
  • Planning and agreeing the project budget with the FD and CFO
  • Defining and agreeing the implementation strategy and roadmap
  • Delivering the end-to-end implementation to the agreed timelines and budget
  • Liaising with and managing the systems integrator and other vendors
  • Ensuring a successful go-live and supporting key users within the business

This is a great "door-opening" role for a talented ERP Implementation Manager to work with an exciting business at the forefront of their industry with future opportunities available due to the visible growth plans.
