ERP Systems Support Analyst - Paisley

ERP Systems Support Analyst

No matter how well implemented and run an ERP solution is, without constant monitoring and support it can slowly become overburdened and ineffective. An ERP support analyst is there to ensure everything is running as it should be by studying usage data, keeping on top of upgrades and managing the database and user support queries.

The role can be either technical, helping the main IT team to keep the system running properly, or perhaps working within another department, such as finance or whatever group of people is using the ERP solution. It will involve support in the normal sense – i.e. dealing with users’ complaints, queries and feedback – but with slightly more depth, for example analysing the way users interact with the solution to recommend add-ons or upgrades, and calculating trajectories to better plot future needs for the system. 

The role is usually in-house, but it’s not uncommon for companies to let the ERP support analyst work remotely, so if that’s important to you, it’s worth mentioning – it also allows you to work for companies all over the world.

The skills required

Naturally, for any ERP system support role, you’re going to need to know ERPs inside out, but specifically the one that’s used in the company in question. With the complexity and add-on ecosystems that some of the top solutions have, you’re going to need to have plenty of experience dealing with the back end, preferably in a support role.

Any kind of IT support needs a good blend of system knowledge and communications skills. It’s always better to explain to users how they can solve a recurring issue than to simply go and fix it yourself, as it makes less work for yourself and the company, and makes the staff more efficient workers going forward. Blending the technical and the personal is key to making a success of this job.

ERP Systems Support Analyst Jobs in Paisley

Renfrewshire town Paisley is located in the lowlands of Scotland and is the county town. But for a few fields it is joined to the west side of Glasgow, and is linked to the city by the A761, M8 and two railway lines (accessible at Paisley Canal and Paisley Gilmour Street). The centres of Glasgow and Paisley are about 6.5 miles (10 km) apart. Glasgow International Airport is just to the north of Paisley, rounding off a picture of connectedness that has been with Paisley since the canals came to town.

Nineteenth-century Paisley was well known for its weaving industry, and spawned two world-famous fashions that still bear its name: the droplet pattern called Paisley (which actually has Persian origins) and the Paisley shawl. The massive Anchor Mill still stands as testament to this industrious era. After major refurbishment in the 1990s the mill is now a mixed-use building, with office space and residential units within the dramatic edifice and the original iron bridge still crossing the canal.

Paisley is right in the heart of the action, with Glasgow as a neighbour, great links to the nation and the world, and some of the UK’s most breathtaking scenery on the doorstep.
