Odoo Implementation Lead — Functional + Technical
Remote / Work from Home · Full-time · Marine & mining distribution, Africa · Program ownership

We're a Netherlands-headquartered group — a large distributor of engines and spare parts into the marine and mining sectors across Africa. We represent leading global engine, driveline, filtration and equipment brands, and we run service and workshop operations alongside the distribution business. We're now consolidating recent group companies onto Odoo as the operational backbone, and we need one person to own the programme end to end.
This is a hybrid role: functional-first (processes, configuration, reporting), but with the Python and Next.js integration to make real decisions on the technical side — and the project-management discipline to run a multi-phase, multi-entity rollout to deadline. You'll start hands-on, then build and lead a small delivery team as the programme scales, after 1 year.
The Odoo build has to deliver that visibility from day one: every entity, every brand, every sales order measured on true profitability, not turnover.





THE PROGRAMME — THREE PHASES

Phase 1 — Core ERP build & migration

• Migrate (v19 → v19, then v19 → v20): migrate our existing Odoo.sh v19 install onto a clean, unified Odoo.sh v19 domain for the group, then plan and execute the subsequent upgrade to v20.
• Build – Rollout: stand up new entities on Odoo from zero (distribution, sales, service, warehouse, workshop).
• Group structure: design and configure Odoo across all entities — multi-country, multi-currencies, intercompany flows, and company/country/brand hierarchies so every part and every sale traces back to its exact origin.
• Data migration: extract, map, cleanse and load historical data from SAP Business One and the existing Odoo Community install into the consolidated Odoo environment. Verify ledger balances, master data and open transactions. You own the integrity of what lands in the new system.
• Third-party integration:
