About The Position

JE Technology Solutions is seeking a hands-on Manufacturing ERP & Business Systems Manager to lead the continued deployment, optimization, and administration of our Made2Manage (M2M) ERP system and to improve the company's data, reporting, and operating processes. This is not a traditional IT support role. It is a business transformation position with direct access to the General Manager and company owner, focused on making operational and financial information easier to capture, easier to trust, and easier to use. The successful candidate will work across Engineering, Manufacturing, Program Management, Purchasing, Production Planning, Supply Chain, Quality, Finance, and Field Operations. The role will translate business needs into practical ERP workflows, controls, dashboards, reports, training, and standard work that support profitable growth and on-time project delivery.

Requirements

Five or more years of experience administering, implementing, or substantially improving a manufacturing ERP or business system.
Experience working directly with manufacturing operations and cross-functional business processes.
Demonstrated ability to translate business requirements into workflows, reports, dashboards, controls, or system configurations.
Working knowledge of SQL, business-intelligence tools, Excel, reporting, and data-management practices.
Experience leading user training, system adoption, process change, or change-management activities.
Strong analytical thinking, project management, communication, documentation, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to work primarily on-site in Apopka, Florida, and engage directly with office and shop-floor users.
Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Business, Engineering, Operations, Finance, Data Analytics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Experience supporting MRP, routings, bills of material, production scheduling, capacity planning, inventory, purchasing, receiving, and job costing.
Knowledge of manufacturing cost accounting, project accounting, WIP, inventory valuation, earned-value concepts, and revenue recognition.
Lean Manufacturing, Continuous Improvement, Six Sigma, APICS, CPIM, or related certification.
