VP, Enterprise Applications

Montrose Environmental Group•Plaza, ND

About The Position

Montrose is on a mission to protect the planet and public health using science, data, and technology at scale. We work at the intersection of environmental intelligence, regulatory insight, and advanced digital platforms, helping our customers make smarter, faster decisions that genuinely matter. This is not compliance theater or checkbox digital transformation. This is enterprise modernization with real-world impact—connecting systems, data, and automation across the business so our people can move faster, smarter, and with confidence. If you’re energized by untangling complex enterprise stacks, building opinionated platforms, and turning applications into strategic advantage, this role is built for you. The VP of Enterprise Applications owns the strategy, architecture, and execution of Montrose’s core enterprise application ecosystem. This includes Workday, Salesforce, Coupa, and Workato, and how these platforms connect to each other and to the enterprise data platform. This is not an “applications maintenance” role. This is platform leadership. You will define how enterprise systems are designed, integrated, governed, and evolved—driving clarity where there is complexity and leverage where there is fragmentation. You’ll be bold about configuration choices, integration patterns, and automation strategy, while preparing the organization for the next generation of data-driven enterprise workflows. A core focus of this role is preparing Montrose to fully capitalize on Snowflake Data Cloud zero-copy integrations, including forthcoming releases that connect Workday and Salesforce directly to Snowflake: unlocking analytics, AI, and cross-system intelligence without brittle ETL.
