Project Manager – ERP & WMS Transformation
About the role
BG Automotive is replacing its legacy ERP (Exchequer) and warehouse management system (MACS) with Oracle NetSuite in a single, integrated transformation. We're looking for a Project Manager to own the day-to-day delivery of this programme, working alongside our internal data and technology team and the Oracle NetSuite implementation team.
This is a hands-on delivery role, not an oversight one. You'll be the person keeping the plan honest, chasing the dependencies, running the meetings, and making sure the right people are in the room at the right time. It's a rare opportunity to lead a business-critical system migration end to end, from kick-off through go-live and into post-launch stabilisation.
What you'll do
- Own and maintain the project plan, tracking tasks, dependencies, milestones and the critical path
- Run the project's governance: weekly status reporting, team meetings, and coordination with the Oracle steering committee
- Maintain the risk and issue logs, escalating clearly and early when something needs a decision
- Coordinate across internal teams (finance, warehouse operations, data) and external parties (Oracle, integration and EDI providers, shipping carriers)
- Manage the change control process and keep scope, timeline and budget aligned
- Support data migration and integration workstreams by keeping the moving parts sequenced and unblocked
- Help drive user acceptance testing, training and cutover readiness toward a successful go-live
What we're looking for
- Proven experience delivering business or IT projects, ideally including a system implementation or migration
- Confident running project governance: plans, status reporting, risk management and stakeholder communication
- Comfortable coordinating both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and holding people to commitments without authority over them
- Organised, proactive and calm under pressure, with strong attention to detail
- Clear written and verbal communication
Nice to have
- Experience with ERP and/or WMS projects (NetSuite, or migrating off a legacy system)
- Exposure to wholesale, distribution, automotive or warehouse environments
- Familiarity with data migration, system integrations or EDI
- A recognised project management qualification (e.g. PRINCE2, APM, PMP, Agile) – useful but not essential
What We Offer You:
- Competitive Salary: We’re open to tailoring the job offer to fit your skills and experience.
- Environment: Work from our modern Swindon offices.
- Growth Opportunities: Be part of an ambitious, fast-growing company.
- Supportive Team: Join a close-knit group that values fresh ideas, innovation, and teamwork.
- Workplace pension
- On-site parking, Drinks & Fruit complimentary, Service gifts for 5,10,15 plus years, Increased holiday for long service.
