Interim NetSuite Migration Lead

About the Company

I am currently partnering with a growing technology client based in Milton Keynes who is transitioning their core finance infrastructure from Xero to Oracle NetSuite across two entities. They are seeking a dedicated Interim NetSuite Migration Lead to take single-point ownership of this critical 3-month transition through to a fixed cutover deadline. Beyond executing the migration, my client is looking for a forward-thinking specialist who leverages AI tools and smart automation (mapping scripts, automated data cleansing, variance checks) to accelerate the project while ensuring the internal finance team is left fully self-sufficient.
