Apex Cloud Consultancy is continuing to scale its NetSuite practice and is looking for a NetSuite Consultant to join the team.

This is a chance to work in a genuinely client-focused consultancy where you ll have real ownership of projects, not just being a cog in a delivery machine. You ll work with new and longstanding clients, helping them implement and continue to optimise NetSuite to support their next phase of growth.

This is not a role for someone who wants to slot into a defined lane, or deliver the same module day in, day out. It is an opportunity to own your client relationships long term, as their trusted advisor.

If you enjoy variety, stakeholder engagement, and seeing the real impact of your work, this is the kind of environment where you ll thrive.

What you ll be doing

As a NetSuite Consultant, you ll be responsible for delivering both ongoing managed services and end-to-end ERP solutions from discovery and design through to implementation and post-go-live support (tier 3).

You ll work closely with clients to understand their processes, challenge where needed, and design solutions that genuinely improve how their business operates.

You will report directly to the CEO for escalation on complex technical or architectural challenges, but the expectation would be for you to be the senior voice in the room, and the person customers trust to deliver in most scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

Project Delivery

• Lead full-cycle NetSuite implementations independently, from scoping through to go-live and hypercare. Managing project timelines and flagging risks proactively to internal leadership
• Manage client stakeholders at all levels, including finance directors, operations leads and C-suite
• Conduct requirements gathering, gap analysis and solution design workshops
• Produce and maintain key project documentation including functional specifications, test scripts and training materials

Client Engagement

• Build trusted relationships with client project sponsors and day-to-day contacts
• Run end-user training sessions and support UAT
• Provide clear and concise status updates, managing expectations throughout the engagement
• Identify opportunities to expand the scope of engagement in line with genuine client need

Internal Contribution

• Collaborate with the sales team on pre-sales activities including demos, scoping calls and proposal input
• Contribute to internal knowledge sharing and best practice development
• Mentor junior consultants where applicable
• Escalate architectural or high-complexity challenges to the CEO appropriately

About you

We re looking for Consultants with experience in delivering NetSuite implementations who ideally have some experience on the financial side of things, if you are financially qualified, that would be fantastic but not essential

• Demonstrable experience delivering projects independently with minimal supervision
• Strong functional knowledge across core NetSuite modules: Financials, Order Management, Inventory, CRM
• Experience across the full project lifecycle from discovery to post go-live support
• Confident client-facing presence with strong communication and facilitation skills
• Experience writing functional specifications and solution design documents
• Ability to balance multiple projects in a consultancy environment

It would be great if you had

• NetSuite specialised enablements (Multibook, ARM etc.)
• Exposure to SuiteScript / integrations (expectation to work with tech consultant giving functional/financial insights to queries/issues)
• Vertical specialism in one or more of: SaaS, subscription businesses, construction, wholesale distribution, professional services
• Prior Background in finance, accounting, or operational roles
• Demonstrable experience with 3rd party SuiteApps eg. ZAB, ProScope etc. and/or familiarity with complementary platforms such as Salesforce, HubSpot etc

Why you ll love it here

We re the new kids on the block, recently onboarded to the NetSuite Partner Programme, building our practice with intent and aggressive plans for future growth industry disruption. It s the best time to join, as a smaller partner, you ll have more responsibility and autonomy from day one including:

• Exposure to a wide variety of industries and business challenges
• Collaborative, close-knit team (no corporate red tape)
• Clear progression as the business scales
• Delivery focused environment
• Competitive salary + performance-related bonus
• Remote-first working, with flexibility around client commitments
• Training and NetSuite certification support

This is a high-impact hire. The business is at an inflection point - we have great clients, building our pipeline and now direct access to product. What we need is the right person to own some more of delivery, so our CEO can focus on growth. You will report directly to the CEO, carry real responsibility from day one, and play a central role in shaping how the practice operates as we scale.

You might be running a pre-sales demo on Monday, leading a design workshop mid-week, and supporting a junior team member through their first configuration on Friday. If you thrive on variety, ownership and working directly with decision-makers rather than through layers of management, this is the role for you.

Ideally this role will be full time, but we are open to phased returns to work for the right candidate!

Fully remote

This is a great opportunity for an accounting software support professional to join a small product team of two within a 40-person ERP software company.

You will work closely with a very experienced Finance Implementation Consultant who has worked with large ERP solutions for global companies and now heads up the product team. You will also collaborate with a skilled Accounting Support Consultant based in Southern Europe who knows the solution extremely well and will help you learn and develop quickly.

Initially, you will start in an application support role, dealing with client queries via calls and tickets. Typical support issues include:

• My trial balance won’t run
• I can’t run consolidation
• There are 3 items in the warehouse but the system says there are 2
• I can’t load a new client

As your experience grows, you will have the opportunity to get involved in implementation projects, starting with training delivery, then moving into report writing and business analysis, and ultimately progressing into full consultancy work - all under the guidance of the Head of Product.
