The Software Manager for Key ERP Systems is a primary resource for coordinating the operation, maintenance, planning, and user support for the Key ERP portfolio.

In this role, you will ensure applications in the portfolio are usable, intuitive, and convenient, and will support functional end-users.

You will be part of a highly interactive IT team where mutual assistance is a constant. A similar environment of interaction is also a major component of the college’s ERP user community, and you will be expected to be a leader and collaborator in this community.

Functional end-users are responsible for day-to-day operation of the portfolio, and technical staff support the infrastructure of the various applications. Within this context, you will provide project management. You will also perform operational duties to assist with training, testing, or provide short-term extra support when functional personnel bandwidth is limited.

You will stay informed about developments in the marketplace to ensure the college is using the most effective and relevant solutions.
• Growth and development matter. You will attend training and conferences as needed to stay informed about best practices and emerging technologies.
