Sellick Partnership is currently recruiting for a Project Manager on behalf of our Local Authority client.
The Council has been live with Unit 4 since April 2023 and is now entering Phase 2 of the implementation. This phase includes multiple smaller projects aimed at maximising the system's potential, such as:
- Unit 4 Improvements: Enhancements to virement workflow, new supplier management, journal workflow, user profile review, debt write-off solutions, budget monitoring, reporting, and integrations with feeder systems (e.g., Housing and Payroll).

- Implementation of Proactis: Invoice capture and integration with Unit 4.
- Implementation of Avalara: VAT reconciliation.
- iTrent (HR & Payroll System): Transition to a fully managed service and software upgrade.
- Paygate: Migration to the cloud.
Role Overview
The client is seeking an experienced Project Manager to oversee and coordinate all projects, reporting directly to the Section 151 Officer and Strategic Director of Resources. This role primarily involves project oversight and stakeholder management rather than hands-on technical implementation.
Key Requirements
- Local Authority experience (desirable).
- Unit 4 experience (essential).
- Strong stakeholder management skills, both internal and external.
If you believe that you are well-suited to this excellent opportunity of Project Manager, please apply directly or contact Tim Farnsworth at Sellick Partnership Derby Office for more information.
