Job description

We are partnering with a rapidly growing, private equity-backed organization seeking a NetSuite Business Analyst to support ongoing ERP optimization, business process improvements, and acquisition-related system integrations.

With continued growth through mergers and acquisitions, the organization is focused on creating a scalable, standardized NetSuite environment across multiple business units. This position will play a key role in bringing newly acquired companies onto NetSuite, improving data quality, and supporting Finance, Accounting, and Operations through ongoing system enhancements.

The ideal candidate is a hands‑on NetSuite professional who enjoys solving business problems, working with data, and collaborating across departments in a fast‑paced, acquisition‑driven environment.

Key Responsibilities

NetSuite Business Analysis & Optimization

• Partner with Finance, Accounting, Operations, and IT to gather requirements, evaluate workflows, and identify opportunities for system improvements.
• Support NetSuite administration, configuration, saved searches, dashboards, custom fields, forms, and workflows.
• Analyze existing business processes and recommend solutions to improve efficiency, reporting, and system functionality.
• Troubleshoot system issues, support end users, and coordinate testing and deployment of enhancements.
• Develop process documentation, training materials, and standard operating procedures.

M&A Integration & ERP Implementations

• Support NetSuite integration initiatives associated with new acquisitions and ongoing business expansion.
• Evaluate legacy ERP systems and business processes to identify integration requirements and potential challenges.
• Assist with system migrations, including data extraction, mapping, transformation, validation, and importing into NetSuite.
• Work closely with acquired businesses to standardize processes, consolidate data, and support successful system transitions.
• Coordinate user acceptance testing (UAT), go‑live preparation, training, and post‑implementation support.

Data Management & Reporting

• Perform hands‑on data cleansing, reconciliation, and validation across customer, vendor, inventory, financial, and transactional records.
• Identify inconsistencies, duplicate records, and data integrity issues across multiple systems.
• Leverage Excel, CSV imports, saved searches, and reporting tools to manipulate and migrate large datasets.
• Develop reports, dashboards, and KPIs to improve visibility across business units.
• Establish and maintain data quality standards to support accurate reporting and future acquisitions.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of hands‑on NetSuite experience in a Business Analyst, Administrator, ERP Analyst, or implementation‑focused role.
• Strong understanding of NetSuite functionality, including saved searches, workflows, reporting, configuration, and data management.
• Experience supporting ERP implementations, system migrations, or integration projects.
• Advanced Excel skills with experience cleaning, manipulating, reconciling, and validating large datasets.
• Understanding of core business processes, including Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, inventory management, and financial reporting.
• Ability to translate business requirements into functional system solutions.
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and communication skills.
• Comfortable working independently and managing multiple priorities in a growing organization.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working within a private equity‑backed organization or supporting mergers and acquisitions.
• Prior involvement in integrating acquired businesses into a centralized ERP environment.
• Experience with multi‑subsidiary or multi‑entity NetSuite environments, including OneWorld.
• Familiarity with SQL, Power BI, Tableau, or other data analysis and reporting tools.
• Experience with third‑party integrations, APIs, or middleware platforms.
• NetSuite certifications are a plus.

Why This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to take on a highly visible role within a growing, acquisition‑focused organization. Rather than focusing solely on day‑to‑day ERP administration, you'll help shape how newly acquired businesses are integrated, how data is managed, and how NetSuite evolves to support continued expansion.

The position offers broad exposure across business systems, Finance, Operations, and M&A initiatives, with the opportunity to take on increasing ownership of ERP projects and process improvements.
