IFS Senior Technical Specialist

IFS Senior Technical Specialist

Ready to shape the future of technology at Henry Schein?

At Henry Schein, technology plays a key role in how we operate, grow and serve our customers across an international organisation.

We are looking for an IFS Senior Technical Specialist to take ownership of critical areas of our IFS Cloud landscape and help us build a more robust, standardised and scalable technology environment.

This is a role for someone who enjoys being at the intersection of hands-on technical expertise, release management, data, integrations and continuous improvement, and who wants to have a real impact on how technology evolves across a complex, multinational organisation.

If IFS Cloud, MWO, PSO, data migration and release management are your world, this could be your next challenge.

What will your impact be?

You will play a key role in making sure our IFS Cloud environments, data and releases are reliable, controlled and business-ready.

Environment & Release Management

You will own and continuously improve the way we manage our IFS Cloud environments and releases:

• Establish and implement best practices for environment management, including refresh schedules, test data and environment usage.
• Maintain environment inventories, interface mappings, configuration baselines and platform documentation.
• Ensure alignment between Build-place and Use-place environments, enabling safe and predictable releases.
• Manage deployments covering IFS Cloud service updates, patches, hotfixes, configurations, reports, integrations and modifications.
• Establish and enforce release governance, version control and change management standards.
• Monitor release performance and identify opportunities to improve deployment success, release quality and change failure rates.

Data, Migration & Platform Governance

You will help ensure that data across our IFS landscape is accurate, consistent and ready to support the business:

• Define and implement best practices for data migration and bulk data uploads.
• Lead data migration and data cleansing activities, including validation, reconciliation and testing.
• Maintain migration documentation, error logs, reconciliation reports and audit evidence.
• Drive the standardisation of platform nomenclature and coordinate data remediation activities.
• Define and manage Synchronization Rules, Permission Set Filters, Entity Filters and MWO Entities.
• Establish guidelines and processes for managing failed transactions.
• Develop and support PSO integrations.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

This role goes beyond technical execution. You will work across teams to make change happen effectively:

• Partner with technical and business stakeholders to ensure effective technical delivery, with the right level of governance and risk management.
• Coordinate multiple streams of change, managing priorities, dependencies and delivery risks.
• Identify opportunities to improve our IFS Cloud processes, standards and governance.
• Translate complex technical topics into clear and actionable information for both technical and non-technical audiences.

What will you bring?

We are looking for someone with strong hands-on IFS expertise who can combine technical depth, ownership, enterprise thinking and a continuous improvement mindset.

Your technical experience

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience implementing and supporting IFS Cloud, MWO and PSO.
• Strong technical knowledge of IFS Cloud and enterprise application environments, including environment management, configuration and integration dependencies.
• Expert knowledge of data migration methodologies and tools.
• Strong understanding of release and change management processes.
• Good working knowledge of SQL/PLSQL, REST/OData APIs and IFS Connect.
• Strong understanding of ITIL processes, particularly Change, Release, Incident and Problem Management.
• Experience with Azure DevOps, Jira or similar release/work management tools.

Your way of working

• Experience working with cross-functional teams in complex, multinational organisations.
• Excellent organisation and attention to detail.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to engage confidently with both technical and business stakeholders.
• Comfortable managing multiple streams of change simultaneously.
• Analytical, proactive and risk-aware, with a strong focus on identifying and solving problems before they become issues.
• A genuine interest in continuous improvement and technology evolution.
