Business Applications & ERP * Ensure the continuity and evolution of the company's business applications. * Oversee the current Microsoft Dynamics NAV / Business Central environment and related applications. * Work closely with the internal application specialist and business stakeholders to prioritise improvements. * Translate business requirements into appropriate IT solutions. * Contribute to the preparation of a potential future ERP transformation/replacement programme. * Help create a more integrated approach to ERP and business applications across the international organisation.
