Growth Technology Ltd is looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead a major ERP implementation and support wider business transformation across the organisation.
This is a high-profile role requiring someone who can take full ownership of the project—from initial discovery and process mapping through to system selection, implementation, testing, training and successful go-live.
Our previous ERP implementation highlighted the importance of strong project leadership, clear accountability and genuine engagement across the business. We are therefore looking for a commercially minded Project Manager who will challenge where necessary, maintain momentum and ensure that internal stakeholders and external implementation partners deliver against agreed objectives.
The role will include:
- Developing and maintaining the overall project plan, budget, timetable and governance framework
- Leading discovery sessions across Finance, Sales, Purchasing, Operations, Warehousing and other key functions
- Documenting current processes and identifying opportunities for improvement
- Translating operational requirements into clear system and functional specifications
- Coordinating internal stakeholders, software providers, consultants and implementation partners
- Managing project risks, dependencies, decisions and change requests
- Holding all parties accountable for agreed actions and deadlines
- Providing clear and regular progress reports to the senior leadership team
- Overseeing data migration, system configuration, testing and user acceptance
- Developing training, communication and change-management plans
- Supporting the business through go-live and post-implementation stabilisation
- Ensuring the completed solution delivers measurable operational and commercial benefits
About you
You will be an experienced Project Manager with a strong record of delivering ERP or similarly complex, cross-functional business systems projects.
You should have:
- Demonstrable experience of managing an ERP implementation from discovery through to go-live
- Strong project governance, planning and risk-management skills
- The confidence to challenge senior stakeholders and external providers constructively
- Excellent communication and stakeholder-management abilities
- A practical understanding of finance, supply chain, inventory, sales and operational processes
- Experience of data migration, testing, training and organisational change
- A structured, hands-on approach with close attention to detail
- The ability to maintain momentum and deliver within agreed timescales and budgets
Desirable qualifications and experience:
- A recognised Agile qualification, such as AgilePM, Scrum Master or equivalent
- A Lean Six Sigma qualification, ideally Green Belt or above
- PRINCE2, APM, PMP or another recognised project-management qualification
- Experience applying Agile, Lean or continuous-improvement methodologies within a business-transformation programme
- Experience within a manufacturing, distribution, horticultural or product-based business
This is an opportunity to take ownership of a business-critical programme and play a central role in shaping how Growth Technology operates and develops in the future.
To apply, please send your CV and a brief summary of the ERP or business-transformation projects you have successfully delivered.
