About The Position

We are the leading beauty hair retailer and salon in Canada. With over 115 locations and a catalog of 6,000+ products, we are on a mission to make our clients and customers look and feel their best. At Chatters, we are transforming how Canadians experience beauty — blending in-salon expertise, retail convenience, and ecommerce innovation. As we grow, we are evolving our supply chain to deliver faster, smarter, and more efficiently to our customers and partners across the country. The Senior IT Manager, ERP, Data and Systems is responsible for the strategy, delivery, governance, and day-to-day operation of Chatters' ERP, enterprise applications, data platforms, integrations, and business systems. This is a hands-on leadership role that combines strategic planning with technical execution, where the successful candidate will actively participate in solution design, troubleshooting, system improvements, data initiatives, and major project delivery while leading a high-performing team. Operate as the senior technical authority for Business Central and LS Central, combining deep functional and technical expertise to resolve complex issues and deliver practical business solutions. This role is closer to 70% technical / 30% leadership than a traditional IT Manager. We're looking for someone who enjoys getting into the details, hands-on - diagnosing POS issues, reviewing AL extensions, assessing Business Central behaviour, validating integrations, working alongside developers (vendors + internal), and partnering with the business to deliver practical, scalable solutions.
