About This Role

The ERP Business Analyst will play a key role in improving and supporting the company’s business processes through the ERP system. This position focuses primarily on understanding business needs and optimizing how they interact with the ERP: gathering requirements, configuring modules, documenting workflows, and providing end-user support and training. The ideal candidate will be business-oriented, proactive in process improvement, and able to translate functional requirements into effective system solutions. Technical knowledge may be useful for data analysis and customization (SQL,VB), but the emphasis is on functional expertise and collaboration with business teams.

Key Responsibilities And Accountabilities

• ERP Configuration & Module Management

- Configure and maintain ERP modules according to business requirements and best practices. Ensure changes are properly tested, documented, and communicated to users.

• Requirements Gathering & Documentation

- Work with business users to gather requirements for system enhancements, new modules, or integrations. Translate business needs into functional specifications and ensure clear documentation for both users and technical teams.

• Data Analysis & Reporting

- Extract, manipulate, and analyze ERP data using SQL and VB. Develop and maintain ad-hoc queries to support business decision-making and operational transparency.

• Testing & Quality Assurance

- Create and execute test plans for upgrades, patches, and system changes. Support users during UAT (User Acceptance Testing) and ensure high-quality deployments with minimal disruption.

• Collaboration with Technical Teams

- Work closely with IT and external vendors on complex technical issues, integrations, and custom development. Assist in translating functional needs into technical tasks and validating delivered solutions.
