• Develop and deliver clear, non-technical documentation and presentations to support stakeholder understanding and buy-in.
• Coordinate data migration, user acceptance testing, and training plans in collaboration with key departments.
• Ensure that the ERP system supports data integrity, transparency, and effective reporting in line with climate-related metrics and sustainability mandates.
