Project Manager, ERP software solutions

This phenomenal company is a global leader in large scale ERP, Field Service Management, and Asset Management software. This is a first-class opportunity to for an ERP Project Manager to work for a world class software author in the ERP space, who are financially solid, continuing to expand and who offer great career prospects and a bright future. Salary to £60k, + £6,400 car allowance and 10% bonus, plus the benefits package is pretty amazing. This is a remote role, based from home anywhere in the UK. Leeds is not relevant.

They need an energetic Project Manager with ERP software experience, who has worked in a client facing PM role for a consultancy, software reseller or vendor, and has managed multiple ERP projects. As a Project Manager here you will typically work on 2 large ERP projects at once, and probably a few smaller at the same time. So, expect two x 200 day + projects and a few 20-50 day projects. They like PM's to have different clients so they don't "go native"!

More than this you will be a commercial Project Manager with the ability to effectively handle conflict and obstruction encountered with change management during software implementations, and to deal confidently with client problems when they arise.

You can be home based anywhere in the UK. There is less travel than the consulting roles so you will normally be on client site 2 or 3 days a week, it is up to you, as long as you are keeping on top of your projects, the stakeholders and sponsors. Your focus will be on the professional delivery of their ERP solutions to their client base, following company structured methodologies, making sure the customer has the highest level of satisfaction, and ensuring profitability and referencing for the company. Their software is large scale and has 100's of modules, so ideally you will have worked with other large ERP solutions such as Epicor, Infor, Dynamics AX, Sage X3, IFS, Syspro, Deltek, JDE, Oracle, Odoo, Dynamics NAV, NetSuite or similar.

Your job will cover the usual delivery of projects on time and to budget, managing scope, variations, creep and project status, controlling risks, managing and allocating resources including the implementation consultants, reporting progress to the client, setting up project costing and reports, reviewing monthly cost and time bookings, monitoring invoicing for maintenance charges, and reporting to the project steering group.

Profile:

• Proven experience of managing and implementing multiple ERP projects from cradle to grave
• Worked with Tier 1 or 2 ERP solutions
• You understand the 'nuts and bolts' of ERP implementation
• Consulting / consultancy / vendor experience
• Capable of owning the relationship with P&L responsibility
• Client focused with excellent customer relationship handling
• Energetic, team oriented, great interpersonal skills

They are looking for someone who is energetic and ambitious, highly communicative, creative with processes and solutions, confident and outgoing, and is a career focused Project Manager. If you have worked with structured methods or have formal project management qualifications, so much the better.

They have an outstanding portfolio of clients, some of the best technical expertise in the ERP market and an open management style. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a globally respected ERP company and flourish. The number of staff here who have been with the company for over 10 years, is testament to the superb working environment and career prospects.
