- Description
This job is to be the internal ERP Project Manager for a renowned group of companies on a permanent basis, rolling out Microsoft D365 Finance & Operations. It is based between Andover and Salisbury, right near Stonehenge. Salary on offer is to £90,000 with a performance bonus.
It is a key position for an ERP Implementation Project Manager. They are an award winning and innovative FTSE 250 design, manufacturing and supply company who are at the start of a major MS Dynamics 365 F&O project roll out across their group companies. It will begin with this first 400 strong business in Salisbury who have a £60 million turnover. This division manufactures high technology products for the aerospace, and security markets.
They need a strong ERP Project Manager, who is level-headed, has presence and kudos, and can plan and run software implementation projects and is happy working in the Salisbury / Andover area for much of the time.
You will be their ERP Project Manager initially on this first 18-month MS Dynamics 365 ERP project, then working on their subsequent ERP roll outs throughout the UK group companies.
What they need from you:
- A strong project management background working with ERP solutions
- You are a skilled Project Manager and experienced with the ERP software implementation lifecycle and with manufacturing
- You have led an ERP implementation project into a manufacturing company
- Strong business analysis and business process understanding
- Well rounded, with a holistic approach and happy to fight your corner
- Ideally you have worked for a reseller or consultancy or software vendor
The distribution part of the business is outsourced to a specialist freight forwarding company, so these projects are working with finance and manufacturing (which is generally made to order).
You can push the user base and all the internal departments to get the best outcome from the new ERP software, and to talk about their business processes and what can be changed. You will need to ensure that the reporting is properly thought through as the project progresses, and that tools like PowerBI and SSRS are used effectively to deliver strong valuable reporting early in the Go Live.
This is a brilliant opportunity to join a significant FTSE 250 company at the beginning of a very large ERP project roll out, playing a pivotal role and having the MD as the key sponsor and the Group FD as a key player on the project. The projected go live date for the first installation is November to December 2023. After that you will move on to the next group company, for the second roll out of D365 F&O.
A fabulous chance for a motivated Project Manager with ERP & manufacturing skills to settle into a major company and get solid MS Dynamics D365 F&O experience.
