About The Position

Want to own the technology behind how an entire business operates—not just keep the applications running? Elford is looking for an experienced Enterprise Applications Manager to lead the strategy, lifecycle, and continuous improvement of the enterprise applications that support our business. This is more than application support. You'll have the opportunity to influence what we use, how our systems connect, where we invest, what we improve, and what comes next. You'll partner with leaders across Elford to make sure our technology supports the way our people actually work.

• Can move comfortably between technical conversations and business conversations.
• Know how to lead vendors and cross-functional teams without losing sight of the end user.

Nice To Haves

• Experience within construction, architecture, engineering, or manufacturing is especially valuable.
