As we embark on a transformative journey to implement Infor LN as our new ERP system, we are building a high‑performing team to drive operational excellence, modernize processes, and future‑proof our enterprise.

We are seeking an experienced Business Process Integrator with in-depth Record to Report (R2R) expertise to serve as a key member of our Business Transformation team. In this role, you will shape the vision for integrating Infor LN – Cloud Suite Industrial Enterprise across the organization—bridging business needs with technical solutions, architecting future‑state processes, and ensuring seamless implementation of R2R capabilities.

• Build strong relationships with business stakeholders and IT counterparts to collaboratively shape end‑to‑end business process strategy in one or more process lanes (i.e. Product Concept to Launch, Lead to Customer, Order to Cash, Procure to Pay, Record to Report, Manufacture to Deliver).
• Act as a technical visionary and strategist for Pella’s ERP platform and related applications, including PLM, CPQ, and QMS.
• Map current processes and architect future‑state workflows focused on efficiency, compliance, and data quality.
• Conduct detailed gap analyses between current R2R processes and Infor LN capabilities; document business requirements and recommend optimal configurations or enhancements.
• Distill large initiatives into executable roadmaps that balance new technology adoption with responsible deprecation of legacy applications such as Oracle EBS.

• Interface with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to translate requirements into functional solutions and demonstrate business value.
• Partner with enterprise architects and technical teams to ensure alignment between business vision, system design, and technical execution.
• Identify risks, issues, and dependencies across projects and drive mitigation strategies.
• Serve as the primary SME for R2R processes: general ledger, financial close, account reconciliations, fixed assets, intercompany accounting, and financial reporting.
• Identify and prioritize continuous improvement opportunities—leveraging automation, predictive analytics, and RPA tools to improve accuracy and reduce cycle times.
• Use data analytics and KPIs to measure and evaluate the success of process changes and technology enablement pre‑ and post‑ launch.
• Troubleshoot post‑implementation issues and recommend long‑term enhancements to sustain optimal performance in the Infor LN environment.
• Develop and execute test plans including leading cycle testing at implementation sites.
• Create and deliver training materials that support end‑user adoption and minimize transition impacts.
• Develop communication materials and execute plans that align stakeholders with transformation objectives.
• Support organizational change management by communicating updates, benefits, and impacts of new processes and technology.
• Work cross‑functionally with Finance, IT, Procurement, Operations, and external implementation partners to ensure readiness for deployment.
• Lead/facilitate small to medium-sized cross‑functional teams, providing direction to internal contributors and external consultants.
• Guide team members toward better outcomes, resolve conflicts quickly, and provide constructive feedback.
