Programme Director - ERP Implementation

ERP Programme Director - Large-Scale Transformation (12-Month Outside IR35)

Ready to lead one of the most complex and high-profile ERP transformations in the market?

We're supporting a major organisation undertaking a multi-function ERP transformation programme that spans Finance, HR, Operations, Supply Chain, Commercial and Customer domains. This is a rare opportunity to take end-to-end ownership of an enterprise-wide ERP delivery in a highly regulated, operationally critical environment.

As ERP Programme Director, you will shape, steer and deliver a full ERP transformation - from programme strategy and governance through to cutover, go-live and benefits realisation. You'll chair exec-level steering groups, lead multi-vendor delivery teams, and own outcomes across cost, compliance and operational continuity.

This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, delivery and stakeholder leadership.

• Influence senior stakeholders including CFO, CDTO and board-level leaders
• Drive adoption, standardisation and benefits realisation across the business

• Strong background in complex, regulated or multi-entity environments (aviation, transport, FMCG, retail, etc.)
• Deep expertise in governance, risk, controls and multi-vendor delivery
• Strong understanding of Finance, Procurement, Supply Chain and asset-intensive operations
• Executive-level communication and stakeholder influence
• Calm, authoritative leadership in high-pressure environments

• One of the most high-profile ERP programmes in the market
• Full ownership of a transformation that shapes enterprise operations for years to come
• Operate at board level with visibility across the entire business
• Outside IR35, long-term runway (12 months+)
• Ability to deliver meaningful, measurable organisational impact
