ERP Programme Manager

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.
