About Addovation
Addovation is an IT services company specializing in the implementation of business systems and related services such as integration solutions and operations. We work with enterprise systems like IFS and NetSuite, and based on these systems, we help companies streamline and automate their business processes to make better business decisions and increase their competitiveness. With offices in Sri Lanka and across the Nordic region – Sweden, Norway, and Finland – as well as over 200 experts, we are able to take a comprehensive approach to our customers' challenges and help them become even better.
About the program
Our Consultant Program is designed for those motivated to apply their previous knowledge to become a Business Consultant within one of our ERP systems. The program is what we call an extended introduction, blending theoretical knowledge with practical experience in customer projects.
It is focused on three main areas:
Enterprise Systems : Learn IFS or NetSuite from a consultant’s perspective. Take part of an extended introduction and onboarding into the system’s modules, as well as knowledge sharing with Addovation’s skilled colleagues and network. You will participate in either NetSuite's or IFS's partner training sessions.
The Consultant Role: You will receive training through Addovation's Consulting Academy, created by our consultants, for our consultants. The training is based on best practices and research. This includes both how to act as a consultant and the commercial aspects. Additionally, you will have an individual mentor to guide you through your development journey.
Customer Focus: Our goal is for you to build strong customer relationships early on, applying theoretical knowledge alongside practical experience from customer projects. In these projects, you will gain an understanding of the customer's unique needs.
Throughout the program, you will gain knowledge of IFS or NetSuite and have the opportunity to specialize in a relevant module area, such as Finance, Manufacturing, Service & Asset, Supply Chain, or others.
You will also learn more about Addovation, our journey, values, and how we work together.
What happens after the program?
During the program, you will gradually transition into your role. After completing the program – which serves as an extended introduction – you will have a good foundation to fully step into the position.
As an IFS Business Consultant, you will focus on improving and streamlining business processes within your area of expertise, using either NetSuite or IFS Cloud.
What will you be doing?
You work closely with the customer to understand how their operations function (depending on your area, such as purchasing, production, finance, and service) and identify areas where improvements can be made. This often involves holding workshops, gathering requirements, and aligning with key stakeholders.
Based on this understanding, you design solutions using the ERP system’s capabilities. You configure the system to fit the customer’s needs, sometimes working together with developers.
You’re involved throughout the entire project lifecycle—from initial analysis to implementation and go-live. You also support upgrades, rollouts to new regions or companies, and ongoing improvements. Along the way, you train users, create documentation, and ensure everything runs smoothly.
In your role, you act as the bridge between business and IT—working with technical teams, performing tests, and making sure the system truly supports the customer’s goals. Common tasks include leading workshops, configuring the system, writing documentation, offering advice on best practices, and supporting during go-live.
Who you are
We are looking for individuals who is curious about the role as consultant and have a strong interest in digitalization and business processes. The program is for those with a few years of relevant work experience who wish to switch career paths to the IT and enterprise systems industry.
You have a university or similar education in economics, technology, IT, or similar, and experience as a user of enterprise systems or practical experience in a role within one of our customer's business areas. For example, you may have worked as an accountant, controller, logistics coordinator, production planner, or similar.
Experience with enterprise systems such as IFS, NetSuite, or other ERP systems is a plus but not a requirement – we will provide you with the tools you need to succeed! 🚀

You could come from various backgrounds, depending on which focus area of the ERP system you're interested in.As a Finance Consultant, you might bring a few years of experience in financial operations, including ongoing accounting tasks, accounts receivable and payable, invoice processing and payments, VAT reporting, and financial closing activities. A background in finance will allow you to leverage your expertise while working with ERP systems to streamline financial processes.
For Supply Chain, you could come from roles such as a Logistics Coordinator, Procurement Specialist/Buyer, Demand Planner, or similar positions. Experience in supply chain management, inventory control, logistics, and procurement will equip you to optimize supply chain functions within the ERP system, ensuring seamless operations from procurement to delivery.

Experience in managing production schedules, equipment maintenance, or lean manufacturing processes would enable you to support ERP implementations focused on improving production efficiency, resource planning, and overall manufacturing workflows.

You might have worked as a process owner, or in a role where you were responsible for planning, executing, and reporting on projects. Your deep understanding of project processes such as resource procurement, project planning, financial reporting, and tracking will be valuable in optimizing project management workflows within the ERP system.
In Maintenance/Service, you may have experience working in service-oriented roles like a service coordinator, maintenance planner, field technician, or service/maintenance technician. Your expertise in managing day-to-day service or maintenance operations will be instrumental in improving how businesses utilize ERP systems to streamline their service and asset management processes.
Each of these areas offers unique opportunities to apply your expertise while contributing to the successful implementation and optimization of ERP solutions.

As a former participant in the Addovation consultant program, I can say that it was a great start of my IT career. I had little experience of the IT industry and ERP systems, but the support and guidance I received from my colleagues made it a lot easier to get into the system and consultant role. I am now part of implementation and upgrade projects within Supply Chain and Manufacturing - I have also been part of creating Addovation Academy

I'm really glad I applied to the consultant program—it has been a fun and learning experience. I've had the opportunity to apply my finance knowledge while gaining new insights into IFS, which has been a great combination. The work environment is fantastic, with supportive and friendly colleagues who are always willing to help when needed. I’ve also had the privilege of working with two excellent mentors throughout my time at Addovation, both during the program and beyond!
