• Initial 3 months, then ongoing
• Large enterprise with complexities

You will need to have worked in an environment of scale and complexity, as the intricacies of the existing system demand that you'll need to understand how all processes interconnect.

• Prepare, schedule, facilitate and document discovery workshops and subsequent
• Assisting with Business Case development
• Gap analysis identification and leading workshops
• Business process mapping and workflows
• Training development
• Assisting with testing
• Go-live and transition support

So we are after someone who has strong functional HRIS skills and experience, but who is also a good communicator, and can both work independently as well as part of a high performing team.  You will need to be an HRIS expert, and not just have touched HR whilst working in other areas.

This is a very exciting opportunity to work in an environment where challenge and interest will prevail!

• Some supply chain experience a must
  
• Critical time with new system in place
  
• Be part of a significant project that will add value to your experience

We're after someone experienced who contribute immediately to further developments, plus any changes across all areas of Supply Chain.  Expectations are high, so we're after a "specialist" who is not daunted by tight timeframes in front of them.

You will work to ensure readiness for change, especially around inventory processes, Third Party Supply, and be involved in ensuring all aspects of the new system are aligned to the business needs.  So we don't necessarily need a technical expert - more someone who can bridge the gap between systems and business practice.

You will need to have worked in an environment of scale and complexity, as the sheer size of this supply chain means you'll need to understand the interaction of multiple stakeholders on and off site - plus third parties.  It would be helpful if you had experience around scanning technology, as well as of course a large ERP environment.

We are after someone who has strong functional skills and experience, who is also a good communicator, and can both work independently as well as part of a high performing team.  This of course alongside your knowledge and experience of end-to-end supply chain.

This is a very exciting opportunity to work in an environment where challenge and interest will prevail!

This client is after someone who can get involved for the long haul and contribute to ongoing development and change.

If you feel this is you, then please submit an application via our registration process by clicking on the apply button.  And if you'd like to know more, feel free to call Kevin Chappell on 0295-974739.

• 12 month fixed term contract role
  
• Focus on delivery and design
  
• Likely to continue post term
  

It's unlikely that if you have less than five years focused PM experience that this role would suit, so ideally we would like a minimum of ten years experience in a stand-alone PM role - in a complex environment working alongside other PMs.

You'll have worked in an Agile environment and have experience in the latest techniques.  You'll have a strong working knowledge of the infrastructure technology domain, including hardware platforms, networks and infrastructure applications.  What's also important is your ability to communicate technical issues to those who may find technical jargon a foreign language!  So we're after strong commercial knowledge and capability as well - which includes the ability to develop strong stakeholder relationships, excellent planning and problem-solving capability.

As this is a change environment, you must also demonstrate having worked in change management and understand governance issues.

On offer is an excellent hourly rate and a fixed term taking you through the sometimes lean times!
