ERP Systems Manager - London

ERP Systems Manager

The most modern enterprise resource planning suites are remarkable in their power, and it’s impossible for many businesses to imagine life without theirs. But with such power comes a non-negotiable need to keep it running smoothly and at its optimum performance levels. The ERP systems manager is there to ensure those requirements are met.

Specific responsibilities vary from business to business, sector to sector, but on the whole the ERP systems manager is there as a hands-on expert who can oversee installations, integrations, optimisation, upgrades, automation and all the other aspects of a well functioning ERP. Importantly, this all needs to be done with minimal or zero downtime, and if downtime is inevitable, it will be up to the ERP systems manager to plan and project manage

The skills required

The more experience you have running an ERP system, the more of an asset you will be to potential employers. Expertise in one particular system is often requested by employers who understand the diverse range available, but with so many similarities across providers, it may not be necessary, and training may be given if you can show an aptitude for working on multiple systems.

As a manager, you’ll be reporting to the directors, but also collaborating with other managers and heads of department to decide on appropriate plugins, installations and integrations, and then to implement them. You’ll also probably have a tech support role for users, particularly in small and medium operations.

ERP Systems Manager Jobs in London

As the UK’s capital and largest city, it should come as no surprise that London offers a wealth of opportunities for those seeking procurement, logistics and supply chain jobs.

Indeed, there’s something for everyone in the Big Smoke, and while the soot and pollution that gave the city its nickname during the Industrial Revolution have mostly disappeared, there are plenty of reminders of days gone by - such as the warehouses and docks that line the Thames.

If you're looking for a ERP Systems Manager job in London, the city offers something for everyone. And, although the capital is known for its high cost of living, most employers take this into account when setting wages - in most cases, the so-called London allowance will add between £3,000 and £4,000 to your salary.

Whether your sector of choice is financial, media, retail, electronics, medical, manufacturing, telecommunications, transport, automotive or even government or defence, London has it.

From Ford to Sony, Barclays to Metro Newspapers and Sainsbury’s to Warburtons, the list of British, European and international firms that call London home goes on and on.

And don’t forget the companies that specialise in moving people and parcels around. With organisations like the Port of London and Transport for London, several international airports and trains that depart to domestic and international destinations, it takes a lot of people to keep London moving smoothly.
