Job description

We are partnering with a rapidly growing, private equity-backed organization seeking an experienced NetSuite Administrator to support ongoing system administration, ERP optimization, and acquisition-related integrations.

With continued growth through mergers and acquisitions, the organization is focused on building a scalable, standardized NetSuite environment across multiple business units. This position will play a key role in maintaining and enhancing NetSuite, bringing newly acquired businesses onto the platform, and improving system functionality, data quality, and business processes.

The ideal candidate has a strong foundation in hands‑on NetSuite administration, combined with experience supporting implementations, data migrations, and cross‑functional business initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

NetSuite Administration & Optimization

• Serve as a primary resource for day‑to‑day NetSuite administration, configuration, troubleshooting, and ongoing system enhancements.
• Manage saved searches, reports, dashboards, workflows (SuiteFlow), custom fields, forms, records, and user roles and permissions.
• Partner with Finance, Accounting, Operations, and IT to gather requirements, evaluate business processes, and implement NetSuite improvements.
• Troubleshoot system issues, support end users, and coordinate testing and deployment of enhancements.
• Maintain system documentation, provide user training, and identify opportunities to improve efficiency and automation.

M&A Integration & ERP Implementations

• Support NetSuite implementations and integrations associated with new acquisitions and continued business expansion.
• Evaluate legacy ERP systems and business processes to identify migration requirements and opportunities for standardization.
• Assist with data migrations, including extraction, cleansing, mapping, transformation, validation, and importing data into NetSuite.
• Collaborate with newly acquired businesses to streamline processes and consolidate operations within NetSuite.
• Coordinate user acceptance testing (UAT), go‑live preparation, training, and post‑implementation support.

Data Management & Business Analysis

• Perform hands‑on data cleansing, reconciliation, and validation across customer, vendor, inventory, financial, and transactional records.
• Identify and resolve duplicate records, data inconsistencies, and other system integrity issues.
• Utilize Excel, CSV imports, saved searches, and reporting tools to manage and migrate large datasets.
• Gather business requirements and translate operational needs into functional NetSuite solutions.
• Develop reporting, dashboards, and KPIs to improve visibility across multiple business units.

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of hands‑on NetSuite administration experience, including direct responsibility for system configuration, customization, troubleshooting, and user support.
• Strong working knowledge of native NetSuite functionality, including SuiteFlow, saved searches, dashboards, custom records, forms, and roles and permissions.
• Experience supporting NetSuite implementations, system enhancements, data migrations, or integration projects.
• Strong Excel skills and experience with data cleansing, mapping, validation, and CSV imports.
• Understanding of core NetSuite business processes, including Order‑to‑Cash, Procure‑to‑Pay, inventory management, and financial reporting.
• Ability to gather business requirements and translate them into practical NetSuite configurations and process improvements.
• Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and communication skills, with the ability to work independently across multiple departments.

Direct, hands‑on NetSuite administration experience is required. Candidates with general Business Analyst or ERP experience but no NetSuite background will not be considered.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working within a private equity‑backed organization or supporting mergers and acquisitions.
• Prior involvement integrating acquired businesses into an existing NetSuite environment.
• Experience with NetSuite OneWorld, multi‑subsidiary environments, and intercompany processes.
• Familiarity with SuiteScript, SQL, Power BI, or other reporting and automation tools.
• Experience supporting third‑party integrations, APIs, or middleware platforms.
• NetSuite Administrator or SuiteFoundation certification.

Why This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a growing NetSuite environment within a private equity‑backed organization actively expanding through acquisitions.
