Job Description
ERP Workstream Lead (Finance)
Staffordshire County Council
Contract | Hybrid Working
Fox Morris Group are working with Staffordshire County Council to recruit an experienced ERP Workstream Lead (Finance) to play a key role in one of the Council's largest transformation programmes.
This is an exciting opportunity to lead the Finance workstream as the Council replaces its existing Finance and HR & Payroll systems with a modern, single Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform. You will be responsible for ensuring the Finance solution is successfully designed, configured, tested and deployed while driving process improvements and supporting the organisation through significant business change.
The Role
Working as part of the ERP Programme Team, you will lead the Finance workstream throughout the full project lifecycle, acting as the bridge between Finance, ICT, implementation partners and key stakeholders.
You will be responsible for ensuring the new solution delivers improved financial processes, supports business requirements and is successfully embedded across the organisation.
Key Responsibilities
* Lead the Finance workstream throughout the ERP implementation.
* Oversee solution design, configuration, testing, deployment and go-live activities.
* Work closely with Finance users, ICT teams and implementation partners to ensure the system meets business requirements.
* Drive process standardisation and continuous improvement across Finance operations.
* Manage dependencies, risks, issues and workstream reporting.
* Support data migration, system integration and user acceptance testing.
* Develop process documentation, user guidance and training materials.
* Ensure business readiness and successful adoption of the new solution.
* Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders, suppliers and external partners.
Essential Experience
To be considered, candidates must demonstrate:
* Significant experience leading the Finance workstream of a large-scale ERP implementation.
* Proven experience delivering Finance and Procurement system implementations from design through to go-live.
* Strong understanding of Finance business processes, including budgeting, accounts payable, accounts receivable, purchasing and financial reporting.
* Experience working closely with ERP implementation partners and technical delivery teams.
* Experience managing system design, configuration, testing, deployment and business readiness.
* Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to engage senior leaders and end users.
* Experience delivering process improvements and organisational change.
* Previous experience within Local Government or the wider Public Sector is highly desirable.
Please Note
Applications will only be considered from candidates who can clearly demonstrate experience leading a Finance and Procurement ERP implementation.
Candidates with general change management, business analysis or ERP support experience, but without ownership of a Finance ERP implementation workstream, are unlikely to be shortlisted.
If you have successfully delivered Finance ERP implementations and are looking to play a key role in a major public sector transformation programme, we'd love to hear from you
