Finance ERP Implementation Lead
Finance ERP Implementation Lead
12-Month Fixed Term Contract Location: London (Hybrid – 1-2 days per week in the office) Salary: £65,000–£75,000
We are supporting an established not-for-profit organisation as they embark on a major finance systems transformation to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and are looking for an experienced Finance ERP Implementation Lead to take ownership of the business side of a new ERP implementation.
This is not a technical ERP consultant or project management role—we are seeking someone who has previously been on the client side of an ERP implementation, understands the challenges of delivering change from within a Finance team, and can confidently represent the business throughout the project.
You will act as the link between Finance stakeholders and implementation partners, ensuring the new solution supports the organisation’s operational needs while keeping delivery on track.
The Opportunity
You will take ownership of the Finance workstream throughout the implementation, working closely with:
- Finance teams
- Senior stakeholders
- Delivery partners
to ensure the project is delivered successfully.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key responsibilities include:
- Shaping business requirements and improving finance processes
- Guiding system configuration to meet operational needs
- Overseeing testing, go-live, and post-implementation support
- Ensuring maximum value from the new ERP platform
This role is ideal for someone who:
- Enjoy taking ownership, solving problems, and driving delivery rather than simply coordinating activities
Requirements
We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate experience in:
- Leading or owning the Finance workstream during an ERP implementation from the business side
- Translating operational requirements into practical system solutions in collaboration with Finance teams
- Dynamics 365 Business Central implementation—experience is highly preferable.
- While experience with other ERP platforms (SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, NetSuite, Unit4, IFS, or Agresso) will also be considered, extensive Business Central usage is essential
- Working in smaller organisations (200–300 employees), where flexibility and hands-on involvement are needed
- Driving process improvements while balancing project timelines and business priorities
- Managing stakeholders and influencing decisions throughout a transformation programme

The Person

- Is practical and delivery-focused
- Rolls up sleeves to solve challenges rather than waiting for decisions from others
- Takes ownership, removes obstacles, and keeps momentum in a project
- Is motivated by delivering outcomes within defined deadlines
- Can quickly build credibility and focus on what matters for a successful implementation
The Offering
- Salary: £65,000–£75,000
