- Organisation-wide ERP project across all disciplines
- Highly cohesive organisation subject to change
- Strong focus on people transition
This is a programme of work that requires more than just your traditional PM approach, simply due to the style of the organisation, and the breadth of change being undertaken.
This client has embarked on an organisational-wide ERP transformation programme of work that covers all disciplines and specialist areas. Lead out of the finance area, it is commercially focused with a definitive stakeholder and customer emphasis. So whilst we need strong IT knowledge, this is not a technology-focused role, but more about the processes, the people, the external relationships, and facilitating change and transition from a PM perspective.
Therefore we need strong people change management capability, plus the ability to identify business processes, and directing and relating back to the technical specialists, and essentially programme managing the project in all directions. You will also need to demonstrate a high level of experience developing vendor relationships where issues were minimised and the relationships enhanced through the implementation process, and post implementation.
You will need to demonstrate a track record of management of projects and teams within a complex entity, where you have interacted with all levels of stakeholders, from finance through to specialist and technical operations within. It would be unlikely that you didn't have tertiary qualifications, supported by formal project management qualifications, such as PMP or Prince2.
Ideally this will kick off after the holiday break in early 2020, so those finishing projects at the end of this year would be encouraged to make contact. And if you're available now, then this could secure a big chunk of work and allow you to relax over the break! The fixed term nature of the role compares it to a permanent role, but as with these types of programmes of work, is through until full implementation which is estimated at the end of 2021.
On offer is excellent remuneration, with flexibility to attract the highest calibre.

2. ONLY THOSE CURRENTLY IN NZ WILL BE CONSIDERED. APOLOGIES TO THOSE WHO ARE NOT, BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE WILL NOT BE IN CONTACT IN THIS INSTANCE.
