Overview:
A rapidly growing, nationwide distribution company is seeking a proactive and highly motivated Implementation Specialist to join their IT Implementation and Adoption Team in Irving, TX. This team has earned a stellar reputation for delivering smooth rollouts and high user adoption across enterprise systems—and their role continues to expand.
The ideal candidate will be someone who thrives on variety and impact—supporting everything from application rollouts and system testing to training and project coordination, while working alongside product owners and cross-functional teams throughout the organization.
Why This Role Stands Out:
This isn't just a deployment or support role. As part of a trusted innovation team, you'll be hands-on in driving real change, validating new technology through user acceptance testing (UAT), and influencing application adoption strategies across departments. Your knowledge of business operations and tech systems will make you a go-to expert across the company.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and coordinate rollouts for new systems, acquisitions, and business units—including schedules, training events, communications, and onsite go-live support.
- Collaborate with internal development, training, and support teams to align rollout activities with business needs.
- Conduct User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and provide actionable feedback to development and product teams.
- Assist in developing and delivering training materials, both in-person and remotely, to ensure user confidence and adoption.
- Support pilot programs, application testing, and feedback loops for newly developed software initiatives.
- Build strong relationships with product owners in other departments, offering insights based on your operational knowledge and field experience.
- Assist in cross-functional rollouts and support the adoption of applications outside your immediate team.
- Act as a change advocate—building trust with end-users, addressing concerns, and promoting new tools and processes effectively.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, Education, or a related field.
- 3+ years of relevant experience in IT implementation, training, change management, or technical project coordination.
- Proficient in analyzing business processes to align training and support with software solutions.
- Strong communicator with the ability to lead meetings, train end-users, and influence stakeholders.
- Advanced Microsoft Excel experience, plus solid skills in Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint.
- Comfortable with frequent domestic travel (up to 50% during implementations), including air travel and occasional weekends.
- Ability to lift up to 45 lbs when supporting on-site activities.
Apply today and be part of a forward-thinking team driving meaningful change across the organization!
