• Providing hands-on support and high-level guidance on everything from ERP systems (ideally you will have exposure to Sage 200) to futureproofing our IT strategy.
• Leading with a project-first mindset, ensuring key deliverables are completed on time, while empowering your team.

What We're Looking For
