Solution Architect (Enterprise Systems & ERP Strategy)
A short-term contract opportunity is available for a skilled Solution Architect to lead a strategic review of enterprise systems and architecture, with a focus on aligning future-state requirements and identifying the right-sized ERP/MRP solution for a growing business.
About The Engagement
This engagement will involve a hands-on assessment of current enterprise architecture and technology platforms, with a focus on identifying system gaps, process inefficiencies, and strategic opportunities to improve alignment across business functions.
The successful candidate will evaluate the existing ERP landscape (e.g. SAP or similar), assess supporting platforms (CRM, MES, CMMS, TMS), and recommend a fit-for-purpose technology direction that balances short-term priorities with long-term strategic goals.
Key Responsibilities
This role may involve periodic onsite collaboration with stakeholders, so the ability to travel as needed is expected. Ideal for a Solution Architect with strong business analysis skills and experience bridging enterprise strategy with practical system design.
