Digital Systems Manager

Blyth, England, United Kingdom Full-time Posted 1 week ago

The Digital Systems Manager is responsible for the development, integration and day-to-day operation of Enshore's business and operational digital systems. This is a hands-on leadership role covering ERP ownership, AI and automation enablement, M365 transformation, data management, digital integration, remote operations capability and digital twin development — ensuring the business has scalable, reliable and efficient digital capability aligned to operational delivery.


Please note - This role sits at the intersection of technology and operations. It is not a traditional IT support function. The Digital Systems Manager will both lead and do — shaping digital strategy while rolling up their sleeves to deliver it.


Key Areas of Responsibility


ERP Implementation & Ownership

  • Take ownership of the ERP implementation currently underway — ensuring correct configuration, clean data structures and business-wide adoption.
  • Work closely with the chosen ERP vendor and internal stakeholders to ensure the system is set up right from the start.
  • Define workflows and system logic that reflect how Enshore actually operates, not generic defaults.
  • Own the ERP development, integrity and continuous improvement post go-live.
  • Drive integration between the ERP and other business systems to eliminate duplication and manual processes.


AI & Automation

  • Be Enshore's internal AI champion — bringing genuine enthusiasm, curiosity and momentum to how AI is adopted across the business.
  • Develop and implement an AI governance framework before widespread deployment — ensuring responsible, consistent and secure use from the ground up.
  • Proactively identify and drive AI integration opportunities across operations, reporting, workflows and communications.
  • Build and roll out AI-assisted tools, automations and workflows that create real efficiency gains.
  • Stay ahead of the curve on AI tooling — regularly briefing senior leadership on emerging capabilities and recommending next steps.
  • Build confidence and capability in AI tools across all teams, turning enthusiasm at the top into adoption throughout the business.


Data Management & Reporting

  • Define and maintain data structures, standards and governance across all business systems.
  • Develop reporting and dashboard capability to give leadership and operational teams clear, timely visibility.
  • Ensure data flows reliably between platforms and is accessible to the right people at the right time.
  • Drive a culture of clean, consistent data across the business — working with teams to improve how information is captured and used.


M365 & Digital Integration

  • Take ownership of the M365 environment — transforming SharePoint, Teams, Power Platform and related tools from under-used to genuinely embedded in how the business works.
  • Develop Power Automate workflows and Power Apps that replace manual processes and improve day-to-day efficiency.
  • Architect and manage integrations across the digital estate — ERP, M365, operational platforms and third-party tools.
  • Ensure interoperability, standardisation and clean data flow between connected systems.
  • Identify and eliminate inefficiencies caused by disconnected or poorly configured platforms.
  • Manage vendor and third-party relationships relevant to the digital systems landscape.


Remote Operations & Digital Twin

  • Lead the development and implementation of Enshore's Remote Operations capability — enabling secure, reliable digital access to operational data and systems from onshore locations.
  • Define the architecture and tooling required to support remote monitoring, reporting and decision-making across offshore and field operations.
  • Drive the development of focused digital twin capability — creating digital representations of key assets and operations to improve visibility, planning and performance.
  • Work with operational teams to identify where digital twin data delivers the most value and prioritise development accordingly.
  • Ensure remote operations and digital twin outputs are integrated with ERP, reporting and AI tools for maximum impact.
  • Stay at the forefront of emerging remote operations and digital twin technology relevant to Enshore's sector.


IT Infrastructure & Support

  • Work alongside the existing IT support function, providing senior oversight and acting as escalation point for business IT systems.
  • Coordinate hardware, software and access management requirements across the business, working with the IT support function to deliver them.
  • Own the strategic direction of IT infrastructure — ensuring the environment scales with the business and supports operational needs.
  • Take responsibility for cybersecurity posture and coordination with any external security or managed service providers.
  • Ensure offshore, remote and field-based digital access requirements are defined and met.
  • Bridge the gap between day-to-day IT support and the wider digital systems agenda — ensuring both functions work as one joined-up capability.
