Full-time, permanent position implementing, supporting, and optimizing enterprise ERP systems for clients, with a focus on supply chain, manufacturing, and planning modules. The role is client-facing first: success depends as much on clear, polished communication as on functional expertise.

Required

Polished client communication: able to run status calls, present findings, and manage escalations with professionalism and composure

Ability to translate technical concepts — configurations, integrations, system behavior — into plain language for business and executive audiences

Career at an IT services company, systems integrator, ERP vendor, or consulting firm (e.g., Accenture, NTT Data, Wipro, Infosys, ERP-partner boutiques) — required; candidates whose ERP experience is exclusively in-house at a single employer will not be a fit

5–8 years in enterprise ERP (any major platform: Oracle, SAP, Workday, Dynamics, NetSuite)

At least one full-cycle implementation: requirements, configuration, testing, cutover, post-go-live support

Functional depth in SCM-adjacent modules: inventory, order management, procurement, costing, or planning

Integration exposure: REST/SOAP APIs, third-party system connections, data migration

Clear written deliverables: documentation, status reports, and issue summaries that nontechnical stakeholders can act on

Preferred

Experience presenting to steering committees or client leadership

Multi-industry client exposure

Experience automating support or testing workflows

Reporting/analytics tooling (BI, embedded ERP analytics)
