You are a seasoned ERP leader (JDE) who is equally experienced on fulfillment center floor, Accounting & Finance leadership team, and in the executive suite. You lead with metrics and structure; you know JD Edwards deeply across both fulfillment and financials, and you are forward-looking about where the platform, the cloud, and AI are heading.
You will own the full JDE application portfolio - everything connected to or embedded in JDE - and lead the team and partners that deliver it:
The JDE platform & ecosystem - fulfillment (RFSmart, Parcel / shipping, QC Software, warehouse robotics), financials and AP (ScanMan, K-RISE and related), integrations, orchestration, and the surrounding supporting applications.
The JDE team - functional / business analysts, developers, and finance analysts reporting to you directly.
End-to-end delivery- JDE projects, enhancements, and support, run with tollgate discipline and clear delivery metrics.
The vendor ecosystem - managed-service and delivery partners for CNC, DBA, project delivery, and monitoring, governed through clear SOWs and healthy competitive tension.
Key partnerships- Systems Operations / IT (production, CNC, and the cloud / OCI roadmap run in close partnership), Accounting & Finance, and Fulfillment Center leadership.
Our First Director, ERP Will:
Own strategy & roadmap - set the JDE strategy and roadmap with key Business stakeholders; translate business priorities into a sequenced, ROI-cased plan aligned with executive leadership.
Be the accountable owner and face of JDE to the business, the executive team, and externally - one voice for strategy, delivery, and support.
Lead and develop the team - set clear role expectations, coach the function, restore the embedded fulfillment-center support model, and build bench strength.
