We are seeking a Senior ERP Project Manager to lead the implementation and integration of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, including Warehouse Management (WMS) and Quality Management (QMS) systems, in a regulated manufacturing environment.

This is not a PMO or coordination role. We are looking for someone who has personally led a Business Central ERP implementation, has been hands‑on with WMS and Quality integrations, and understands how ERP decisions impact real manufacturing, supply chain, and compliance outcomes.

ERP Implementation & Delivery Leadership
  • Lead the end‑to‑end implementation and redeployment of Dynamics 365 Business Central
  • Drive hands‑on integration of WMS and Quality Management (QMS) modules within Business Central

WMS & Quality Systems Integration
  • Partner closely with Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Quality teams to design systems that reflect real operational workflows
  • Lead ERP integrations supporting:
    • Inventory management, warehouse execution, and traceability
    • Quality inspections, non‑conformances, holds/releases, and compliance documentation
  • Ensure ERP, WMS, and QMS operate as a single, validated, production‑ready system
Technical Ownership & Governance
  • Act as the technical owner for ERP architecture and integrations
  • Review solution designs, data models, and system workflows
  • Work directly with system integrators and internal engineering teams to ensure sound technical execution
Regulated Manufacturing & Compliance
  • Ensure ERP implementation meets GMP and Computer System Validation (CSV) requirements
  • Support audit readiness and documentation standards
  • Align ERP capabilities with commercial manufacturing and regulatory expectations
Cross‑Functional & Executive Engagement
  • Partner with leaders across Finance, IT, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Quality
  • Communicate progress, risks, and decisions to Senior stakeholders
  • Translate technical challenges into clear business impacts and actions

What We’re Looking For

Required Experience
  • 10+ years of ERP experience, with 5+ years leading complex ERP implementations projects
  • Proven experience leading a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central implementation
  • Hands‑on experience integrating WMS and Quality Management systems within Business Central
  • Background in food manufacturing, biotech, life sciences, or other regulated manufacturing environments
  • Working knowledge of GMP and Computer System Validation (CSV)
Technical & Functional Strength
  • Strong ERP functional understanding across:
    • Manufacturing operations
    • Supply chain and inventory
    • Warehouse execution
    • Quality systems
  • Comfortable reviewing and challenging solution designs and integrations
  • Prior experience as a Business Systems Analyst or Solution Architect is a strong plus
Leadership Profile
  • Proven ability to lead complex, cross‑functional ERP initiatives
  • Comfortable managing ambiguity and parallel priorities
  • Able to communicate effectively with both technical teams and Senior leadership

Why This Role

  • High‑impact ERP implementation tied directly to a commercial launch
  • Opportunity to lead a complex Business Central environment in regulated manufacturing
  • Significant ownership, visibility, and influence
  • Fully remote engagement with a strong likelihood of extension
In Simple Terms

You’ll ensure that Business Central, WMS, and Quality systems are implemented correctly, compliantly, and on time to support commercial manufacturing at scale.
