• Drive Exciting Projects: Represent IT in project meetings, taking a hands-on role in implementing new systems and technology improvements that align with business goals.
• Lead with Vision: Set the strategic direction for your team, while still rolling up your sleeves and being hands-on to ensure the success of your projects.
• Think Outside the Box: Stay ahead of technological trends and explore innovative solutions that drive business value and improve efficiency.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven Leadership: You’ve led an application team before and know how to inspire and motivate a team to deliver results.
• Strong Tech Expertise: You have solid experience working with Supply Chain/Operations teams, ERP solutions (bonus points for energy or manufacturing experience), and tools like Microsoft Dynamics, development, reporting, and BI systems.
• Collaboration & Communication: You thrive in a business-facing role and can bridge the gap between technical and non-technical teams, explaining complex concepts in simple terms.
• Project Management Experience: You’ve got the skills to manage projects, handle changing priorities, and deliver results on time.
• A Curious Mind: You’re always looking for ways to innovate, improve, and stay on top of the latest tech trends.
• Self-Starter: You don’t need to be micro-managed; you take ownership of tasks and drive them to completion.
• Quality-Focused: You’re committed to delivering high-quality solutions and getting things right the first time.
