Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That's why we've set out on a mission to build the world's most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We're bringing that mission to life with HMND 01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we're growing the team to take it even further. About the Role As ERP Programme Manager, you will be accountable for the end-to-end delivery of Humanoid's ERP programme across all workstreams. While this role sits within the IT organisation, the ERP programme is a business transformation initiative, not an IT-only delivery. As such, accountability for delivery spans business process change, data, controls, testing, change management, training, and technology implementation. You will operate as the single point of delivery accountability for the programme, ensuring that all streams progress in a coordinated, disciplined, and outcome-focused manner, regardless of organisational ownership. This role requires someone who combines structured programme discipline with a strong execution bias, able to enforce standards, drive decisions, and maintain momentum in a fast-growing, complex environment. You will work closely with a designated Programme Owner, but you will be responsible for ensuring the programme delivers on its objectives, milestones, and outcomes. What You'll Do End-to-End Programme Accountability Own delivery of the ERP programme across all business and IT workstreams. Act as the single point of accountability for overall programme outcomes. Ensure workstreams operate as an integrated programme, not independent silos. Translate business objectives into executable delivery plans. Programme Governance & Control Define and enforce programme governance, delivery methodology, and cadence. Establish programme forums, reporting, and decision structures. Maintain an integrated programme plan covering scope, milestones, dependencies, resources, and risks. Ensure transparent, fact-based reporting of progress, risks, and issues. Business Workstream Oversight Hold business workstream leads accountable for inputs, decisions, and delivery commitments. Ensure business process design, controls, and operating model changes are delivered on time. Drive timely decision-making across Finance, Procurement, and Operations. Ensure business readiness is planned and executed. IT & Solution Delivery Oversight Coordinate closely with the ERP Solution Lead and IT workstream leads. Ensure configuration, integrations, data, and technical activities align with business needs. Manage dependencies between technical and business activities. Ensure non-functional requirements (controls, security, supportability) are addressed. Vendor & System Integrator Management Lead day-to-day delivery management of system integrators and ERP vendors. Hold vendors accountable for end-to-end delivery. Challenge delivery assumptions, estimates, and resourcing where required. Ensure commercial and delivery realities remain aligned throughout the programme. Scope, Risk & Decision Management Own scope management across business and IT dimensions. Maintain a live and actionable RAID log with clear ownership and mitigation. Drive structured, fact-based decision-making by presenting options and implications. Escalate risks early, clearly, and constructively. Testing, Go-Live & Stabilisation Maintain delivery grip through early life support until stabilisation is achieved. Ensure an integrated testing strategy covering business processes, data, and technology. Plan and execute end-to-end cutover and go-live activities. Ensure operational readiness across support, controls, and training. What We're Looking For Proven experience leading end-to-end ERP programmes with accountability across business and IT workstreams. Experience delivering ERP platforms such as SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud and/or Oracle NetSuite. Demonstrated ability to run complex, cross-functional programmes with single-point accountability.

We're hiring an Operations Integration Lead to take ownership of technology integration and operational standardisation across a growing portfolio of acquired businesses. Your immediate focus will be SimPro, a field service management platform used by the majority of the business. Beyond that, you'll work across the full operational tech stack: HubSpot (CRM and support), Xero (accounting), Aurora Solar (system design), and a proprietary integration layer that connects them. This is a highly hands on, embedded role. You'll spend 1-2 weeks at a time in regional offices, working directly with the people who rely on these systems day to day: office managers, engineers, installation managers, and GMs. You'll identify where workflows break down, fix them in practice, and ensure the changes stick before moving on to the next site. This role sits at the intersection of technology and change management. You won't be configuring systems remotely - you'll be driving adoption across teams with different legacy processes, varying levels of technical confidence, and, at times, resistance to change. Success isn't just about implementing systems; it's about getting people to use them effectively. As the business continues to grow through acquisition, you'll develop a repeatable integration playbook that enables faster, smoother onboarding of new businesses. There is strong progression potential for the right candidate. What You'll Do Lead the implementation, adoption, and standardisation of SimPro, HubSpot, Xero, Aurora Solar, and internal tools across all subsidiaries Embed on site in regional offices (1-2 weeks per location) to map workflows, identify gaps between intended and actual system use, and implement practical solutions Improve data quality and process discipline, ensuring systems - not spreadsheets, WhatsApp, or verbal handoffs - are the single source of truth Design and roll out cross system workflows (e.g. from sales through to installation, invoicing, and aftercare) that are intuitive and sustainable for non technical users Create training materials, SOPs, and scalable onboarding playbooks for future acquisitions Partner with the tech lead on integrations and platform development, feeding back real world user challenges Provide leadership with structured insights on operational bottlenecks, user pain points, and automation opportunities Drive system adoption through trust, persistence, and clear communication What We're Looking For Must haves Hands on experience configuring or implementing SimPro or similar field service software (e.g. Jobber, ServiceM8, BigChange, Tradify) Strong working knowledge of CRM systems (HubSpot preferred), with broader exposure to accounting tools and workflow automation Industry experience in trades, building services, renewable energy, HVAC, or similar - you understand how installation led businesses operate Demonstrated success driving adoption of systems among non technical or change resistant users Strong process mapping and problem solving skills Willingness to travel extensively (60-70% of time across England) Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage both senior leadership and front line teams Nice to haves Experience standardising systems across multiple sites or business units Background implementing field service or business management platforms across organisations (e.g. vendor, consultancy, or in house) Familiarity with Aurora Solar or similar design tools Knowledge of solar PV, battery, or heat pump installation workflows Experience working with system integrations (API level understanding beneficial) Experience building reports or dashboards from operational data

A major part of the role is managing the many integrations and data flows between these platforms and wider M&S systems, including finance, identity, access, reporting and external partners.

Work closely with stakeholders across HR and Technology to shape roadmaps, prioritise risk, and make technical trade-offs visible. What We're Looking For Experience leading multiple engineering teams through managers in a complex software environment.
