What We're Looking For

  • 2–4+ years in IT Helpdesk/Systems Support or ERP/CRM administration and implementation.

  • Hands-on experience with NetSuite (Financials/Accounting modules strongly preferred) and/or Salesforce.

  • Familiarity with core business processes (Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, billing, and CRM pipelines).

  • Solid IT fundamentals (Windows/macOS, Microsoft 365, Active Directory/Entra ID, basic networking).

  • Strong communication skills with the ability to translate technical issues for non-technical staff and finance stakeholders.

Bonus Points

  • NetSuite, Salesforce, or CompTIA certifications.

  • Background in recurring-revenue (RMR), field service, or telecom industries.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience implementing other leading ERP or CRM platforms
  • Experience within the Alarms industry
  • Familiarity with system integration, data migration, and change management best practices
