Job Description

Local governments keep water running, roads paved, and paychecks going out. Many of them still do it on software older than some of their interns. GovSense is changing that, and we are looking for a NetSuite Consultant who wants to help.

About GovSense

GovSense is a true-cloud Government Resource Planning (GRP) platform built on Oracle NetSuite for cities, counties, and special districts. Finance, budgeting, utility billing, procurement, and project management all live in one connected system.

Our implementations start with the business process, not the technology. That approach gets jurisdictions live in weeks, not years. Finance teams then spend less time fighting their systems and more time serving their communities. GovSense is headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, and our team works remotely across the country.

Who You Are

• You get a little too excited when a messy, 14-step manual process turns into one clean workflow.
• You can explain fund accounting to a developer and a saved search to a City Treasurer, sometimes in the same meeting.
• You ask “why do you do it this way?” before you start configuring.
• You stay calm, and maybe even have fun, when go-live week gets busy.
• You have a solid understanding of accounting
• You like owning a project from the first workshop to the moment the client says, “We’ve got it from here.”

What You Will Do

• Run the room. Lead discovery workshops with finance directors, clerks, and utility managers to find out how their work gets done.
• Design the fix. Turn real public-sector processes into NetSuite and GovSense configurations built to grow with each client.
• Build and test. Write functional specs, work with technical teams on integrations, data migration, and customizations, and guide clients through User Acceptance Testing (UAT).
• Teach it. Deliver training that turns hesitant users into confident system owners.
• Stick around. Document configurations, support clients after go-live, and help shape GovSense best practices.

Your AI Side Quest

You have a favorite AI tool and strong opinions about prompts. Or you have been meaning to dig in and just need a good excuse. Either way, we want people who treat a new AI release like a new toy to take apart. At GovSense, AI is part of how we work every day, and you will have room to experiment, learn, and bring new ideas to the team and to our clients.

The Must-Haves

• Hands-on NetSuite expertise: configuration, customization, workflow design, and reporting for ERP and finance processes.
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on implementation experience.
• Based in the United States.
• Able to travel up to 25% for onsite workshops, training, and go-lives.

Bonus Points

• You live in the Eastern or Central time zone.
• Nonprofit experience, such as fund accounting, grants, or board-approved budgets.
• Familiarity with local government operations or public-sector business processes.
• Experience with requirements gathering, process analysis, data migration, testing, and end-user training on ERP projects.
• Solid project management skills and the ability to keep several clients moving in a remote setting.
• NetSuite certifications or past consulting experience with cloud ERP platforms.

Why GovSense

Your work here shows up in real places: a utility bill that is finally accurate, a budget that closes on time, a city council meeting with clean numbers. You get the flexibility of remote work, the energy of meeting clients in person, and a team that values clear communication, practical problem-solving, and doing right by the people we serve.
