Job description

This is an excellent opportunity for a systems specialist with a background in distribution or warehouse technology to drive a major business transformation. If you enjoy bridging the gap between software configuration and physical logistics, this role offers the chance to lead the implementation and long-term management of a group-wide ERP and WMS ecosystem.

This company is a leading provider of essential products for businesses across various sectors. They specialise in delivering a comprehensive range of high-quality janitorial, catering, and packaging supplies, helping organisations maintain efficiency and hygiene in their operations.

  • Familiar with ERP/WMS platforms; SQL or API knowledge is highly desirable.
  • Ability to effectively bridge the gap between technical and operational teams.
