Position SummaryThe IT Manager, NetSuite and Service Operations owns the health, roadmap, and delivery of the NetSuite ERP platform and the technology that runs field and customer service operations. In this role, you will serve as the functional and technical owner of NetSuite across finance, order-to-cash, procurement, inventory, and service, while making sure the people closest to the customer have tools that work.

- Plan and execute the migration of acquired entities onto the standard platform: chart of accounts and item mapping, customer and asset master data, open orders and work orders, service history, and subsidiary setup in a multi-entity NetSuite environment
- Lead a small team of analysts, administrators, and contract resources, managing capacity across support and project work and coaching on both technical depth and business fluency
- Manage vendor partners and statements of work, review consulting deliverables against agreed scope, and provide input into the annual application budget
