Why Join Oilgear

Summary:

The Epicor Kinetic Senior Business Analyst is responsible for supporting, optimizing, and enhancing the company’s Epicor Kinetic ERP system across all THI, Oilgear, and Hydromotion locations. This role goes well beyond technical configuration: the Senior Business Analyst is expected to spend time on-site at each location, sit and embed directly with departments (Finance, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Service, Engineering, and others), and observe, document, and build out the internal processes the ERP supports.

The role requires strong functional knowledge of Epicor, excellent problem-solving abilities, and a proactive, hands-on approach to user support and system optimization. The Senior Business Analyst provides direct support to end users across all company sites and manages the Business Analyst — overseeing daily tasks, providing mentorship, and conducting performance reviews. Working closely with leadership and end users, this position shapes existing workflows and develops new ones, with a focus on improving future business performance through effective, standardized ERP utilization across the enterprise.
