Successful Sage Intacct implementations generally mean fairly small-scale projects of 5 to 20 users, and Sage X3 implementation projects tend to be around 50 to 200 users. If you are Project Managing an Intacct implementation here, then the process is much more straight forward and you will have a lot of opportunity to work independently, whereas if you're the PM here for a Sage X3 implementation you will have to organise a team around you.
As well as ERP software knowledge, your experience will cover coordination and organisation of resources and people, project planning, risk management, project progress reporting, tracking of deliverables, documentation, and meeting milestones on time and to budget. Projects range from new ERP implementations to software upgrades, and add-on modules to Sage X3.
Your background:
- 2 years + project management experience, on anything from 10 to 40 day+ projects
- ERP software or similar solutions expertise
- A background in software implementation would be great
- You've worked in a client facing role, and can manage the customer and their pain points
- Experience using project management tools such as MS Project, and / or formal project management methodologies such as Prince2
- Delivery of projects on time and to budget
- Great at forming effective relationships with clients and managing their expectations
- Professional, good communicator and with a strong work ethic
- A stickler for detail
As a PM here, you will work with a very experienced Senior Implementation Consultant who knows what the steps are to delivering a successful ERP solutions. And you will work with the Sales Director and also the Chief Project Sponsor, who are deeply knowledgeable and really good people too. Their team is strong and closely knit, and you'll get lots of advice and guidance. So this job this would suit someone looking for the next step up in their ERP project management career.
