UFORCE
UFORCE is a combat-systems integrator transforming Ukrainian battlefield experience into deployable defence technology for allied nations. Built by Ukrainian practitioners and global technology leaders, UFORCE brings together unmanned air, sea, and land systems, software, command-and-control, and operational expertise into one adaptive combat architecture.
Our mission is to make defence dramatically faster, more scalable, and more cost-effective than traditional military systems — helping free nations deter aggression by making defence 100× cheaper than offence. We are building a new category of defence company: combat-proven, open to allied integration, shaped by real-world frontline experience, and focused on protecting democratic societies at speed.
About the Role
UFORCE is running a major, multi-country ERP implementation to build a single, compliant, group-wide system of record across finance and supply chain. This is a build-from-zero program: there's no dedicated owner today to map requirements, run vendor and integrator selection, design the manufacturing finance model, and see it through to go-live. You'll own the program end-to-end — from requirements and vendor evaluation through manufacturing finance design, master data governance, controls, and cutover — giving leadership, auditors, and investors reliable, consolidated data for the first time.
This is a sole-focus mandate, UK-based or UK-hours remote with regular travel to our international sites. You'll report into Finance leadership, work within group program governance, and partner closely with Finance, Manufacturing, IT, Legal, and international subsidiaries, alongside an external systems integrator. There are no direct reports at launch — you'll coordinate integrator workstream leads and functional stakeholders directly rather than manage through a team, and the role calls for sound judgment operating across regulated and sensitive markets.

Responsibilities
- Own the ERP program end-to-end — requirements gathering, budget scoping, vendor evaluation, and integrator selection and management — from business case through go-live and stabilization.
- Design and validate the manufacturing finance data model: costing, multi-level BOMs, inventory valuation, and supply-chain integration, consolidating site-level systems into a single group system of record.
- Build an export-control-aware, compliant chart of accounts and controls framework, and establish single-source-of-truth master data governance across all sites.
- Run structured program governance, aligning Finance, IT, Manufacturing, and Legal, while managing the external integrator relationship and holding it accountable for delivery.
- Own audit and controls readiness for the program, targeting a clean external review ahead of cutover.
- Deliver go-live wave-by-wave, on schedule and within budget; complete training and updated processes for every impacted function; and hand Finance a documented, ongoing operating rhythm.
Requirements
Must-have:
- Full-lifecycle Tier 1 ERP delivery — led a Tier 1 ERP implementation (e.g., SAP S/4HANA, Oracle Cloud ERP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, NetSuite, or similar) end-to-end across 2+ countries/entities as the named business owner, from business case through go-live and stabilization.
- Manufacturing finance depth — hands-on ownership of costing, multi-level BOMs, inventory valuation, and supply-chain/MRP integration inside a manufacturing ERP build.
- Regulated-industry fluency — experience with export-control regimes and government/defense contract accounting.
- Scale-up builder mindset — has designed finance/ERP processes and controls from a blank page, not just administered an already-mature system.
- Audit-ready controls track record — built a controls framework and close process that passed external audit or investor due diligence with no material findings.
- Program and stakeholder leadership — has managed a systems integrator/vendor relationship and cross-functional governance on a comparable program.
- Master data governance experience — designed and enforced a master data governance model across multiple entities or sites.
- Sound judgment operating in sensitive or regulated markets, with a track record of discretion.
