Are you comfortable with extracting and analyzing data to produce reports on-demand? If so, consider joining our dynamic team of software developers and contributing to CERN’s Corporate Information Systems.

You will become part of the Business Computing (BC) group within the Finance and Administrative Processes (FAP) department where our international team of 70+ colleagues works together to deliver information systems for CERN’s business operations. The Finance section (FIN) is responsible for the maintenance and continued evolution of CERN’s core financial systems, which support the entire organization.

The group operates across multiple departments (HR, Finance, Planning, Safety, Security, Purchasing, Logistics, and Accelerator Operations) and works on a wide range of products, from tailored solutions for smaller teams to large, integrated systems with thousands of users. This diversity offers you the chance to work with different technologies and gain experience in various business areas.

As an ERP Specialist you will join a self-organised agile product team. You will maintain, customize and support some of the group's ERPs for finance and procurement. This work will be performed in close collaboration with internal business stakeholders, vendors and system integrators.

- Be in charge of the implementation, configuration and management of ERP systems with a focus on the S2P process;

- Coordinate system upgrades, migrations and ensure system monitoring;
- Drive the transformation of the Source-to-Pay (S2P) process, ensuring optimization, automation and alignment with business objectives through effective use of ERP solutions;
- Lead operations, maintenance and development activities according to the priorities set by the Product Manager and Product Owner;
- Provide 3rd level support and consultancy to business users in the form of support tickets or meetings focusing on business continuity;
- Mentor junior ERP specialists and manage knowledge transfer activities.

Desired:

- Certification or specialized training in ERP systems.
- Experience in business process modelling.
- Experience in using customer support tools such as ServiceNow.
- Experience in configuring workflows, automating procurement processes, and managing supplier networks.

Technical competencies:

- Design of databases/repositories: extend/modify existing data models, provide means to store personalisation settings, etc
- Knowledge and application of software life-cycle tools and procedures: usage of issue tracking (e.g. Jira) and source code versioning (e.g. GIT) too.
- Customer service: provide end-user support to existing ERP applications.
- Technical advice and guidance: working with business specialists and computing engineers in the selection/evaluation of technical solutions

Behavioural competencies:

- Achieving Results: having a structured and organised approach towards work; being able to set priorities and plan tasks with results in mind
- Managing Self: remaining objective, focussed and productive in a stressful environment; focusing on solutions rather than problems
- Demonstrating Accountability: working conscientiously and reliably; delivering on promises
