You will also drive change management, stakeholder engagement and training to ensure adoption and system readiness across the organisation.
This role will work closely with senior leadership, department heads and technical specialists, acting as the central coordination point between UK‑Med teams, system vendors and advisory partners. You will bring strong programme‑management experience, excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively across functions in a complex fast‑paced environment.

• Proven experience with ERP systems such as SAP SuccessFactors, Microsoft Dynamics Navision, Oracle EBS, Peoplesoft, NetSuite and Oracle.
• Strong background in project management, Microsoft Project and ERP implementation.
