We're recruiting on behalf of a successful, growing FMCG wholesaler where you would own the IT function and have autonomy in the role. This is a rare opportunity to join a small, family-run, 100% employee-owned business that is expanding rapidly and moving to a larger premises in the near future.

The business retains a close-knit, pragmatic and collaborative culture. There is no heavily established IT hierarchy, so this role will suit someone who enjoys autonomy, rolling up their sleeves, and genuinely getting stuck in.

Flexible Working

What you will be doing:

This is a hands-on IT Project Manager role, reporting directly to the Managing Director. You'll take ownership of a portfolio of technology initiatives, with a major focus on delivering a business-critical ERP upgrade (Microsoft Dynamics / Business Central preferred).

You'll be trusted to shape how IT projects are delivered across the business - working closely with warehouse, transport, finance, sales, and purchasing teams.

What we're looking for:

Someone who:

Is naturally proactive
Is comfortable working hands-on in a business without a mature IT structure
Communicates confidently with both technical partners and non-technical stakeholders
Enjoys autonomy and ownership in a growing, operationally driven wholesale business
Thrives in a down-to-earth, people-focused culture

Key Responsibilities

Lead end-to-end delivery of IT and systems projects across the business
Own the ERP upgrade, ensuring minimal disruption to wholesale operations
Translate operational business needs into clear technical requirements
Work closely with warehouse, transport, finance, sales, and purchasing teams
Create and maintain project plans, RAID logs, roadmaps, and reporting

Skills & Experience

Proven experience delivering IT projects in multi-system environments
ERP upgrade experience (Dynamics / Business Central highly desirable)
Strong understanding of SDLC and software delivery
Confident stakeholder management and clear communication style
Comfortable operating autonomously with minimal IT infrastructure in place

Why This Role Stands Out

Employee-owned wholesaler - everyone has a stake in the business
Direct access to senior leadership and real influence
Expanding business with new premises and significant investment planned
Monthly profit share (currently averaging at 200 tax-free per month)
