Job Description

Remote ERP Implementation Consultant

At some point, growing companies start noticing small inconsistencies that don’t quite add up. A report takes longer than expected. Inventory numbers need double-checking. Teams rely on side spreadsheets just to stay confident in their work. Individually, these issues seem manageable. Together, they slow everything down.

This role steps into that exact moment—not to introduce complexity, but to remove it.

As a Remote ERP Implementation Consultant, the focus is on helping businesses make sense of their operations again. With an annual salary of $115,250, the position offers the chance to work closely with organizations that are ready to fix what’s no longer working behind the scenes.

Position Insights

The work here isn’t about pushing a system into place. It’s about understanding how people actually work, then shaping the system around that reality.

Some clients arrive mid-transition. Others have tried implementing ERP before, but never fully trusted the outcome. What they all need is someone who can look beyond surface-level problems and get to the root of what’s causing friction.

That usually starts with conversations—not assumptions.

Role Impact

When ERP is implemented thoughtfully, the changes aren’t flashy—but they’re noticeable.

Teams stop rechecking their own work. Data becomes something people rely on rather than question. Processes that once took hours begin to move without constant intervention.

This role plays a direct part in creating that shift. It’s less about the system itself and more about what the system enables—clarity, consistency, and better day-to-day decisions.

Regular Work Scope

The day-to-day work rarely follows a fixed pattern. It shifts depending on the stage of each project and the challenges involved.

• Spend time with different teams to understand how tasks actually move from one step to another
• Identify gaps between what the system shows and what’s really happening in operations
• Redesign workflows so they feel natural when used inside the ERP environment
• Keep implementation timelines realistic, adjusting when business needs take priority
• Configure core ERP areas such as finance, inventory, and procurement
• Manage data migration carefully to avoid disrupting historical records
• Test systems using real scenarios rather than ideal conditions
• Stay available during rollout to answer questions and ease the transition
• Revisit setups after launch to fine-tune how everything performs in practice

Required Skills

People who do well in this role tend to combine technical knowledge with a strong understanding of how businesses function day-to-day.

• Experience working with ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics 365
• Understanding of process mapping and how workflows translate into systems
• Background in system integration, data handling, and validation
• Ability to manage projects while staying flexible when priorities shift
• Clear communication style that works for both technical and non-technical audiences
• Practical problem-solving approach rather than purely theoretical thinking
• Comfort working independently in a remote setup
• Familiarity with cloud-based ERP solutions and implementation practices

Work Environment

The role is fully remote, but it stays collaborative.

You’ll interact with teams across different regions, often balancing varying schedules and expectations. Some days involve deep, focused work. Others are built around discussions that move projects forward.

There’s no rigid structure to how each day unfolds, but there is a clear expectation—deliver work that makes a difference.

Systems Used

A range of tools supports both the technical and collaborative sides of the role.

• ERP platforms including SAP, Oracle ERP, and Microsoft Dynamics
• Project management tools like Jira or Asana
• Data migration and integration utilities
• Reporting systems for tracking business performance
• Communication tools such as Slack, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams

These tools help, but they’re only as effective as the thinking behind their use.

Actual Work Example

A mid-sized trading company begins struggling with delayed shipments. Sales confirm orders quickly, but fulfillment teams regularly discover stock shortages after the fact. Finance, meanwhile, is stuck reconciling numbers that don’t align.

Looking closer, the issue isn’t demand—it’s visibility. Inventory updates lag behind actual movement, and different teams rely on separate data sources.

By restructuring how inventory, sales, and finance connect within the ERP system, the problem starts to resolve itself. Updates happen in real time. Teams work from the same data. The delays that once felt unavoidable begin to disappear.

Nothing about the business changed overnight—but the way it operated did.

Who Can Apply

This role suits someone who’s comfortable stepping into situations that aren’t fully defined.

• You tend to notice patterns others overlook
• You prefer understanding problems before jumping into solutions
• You can move between technical detail and business discussion without friction
• You manage your time well, even without close supervision
• You’re motivated by making things work better, not just completing tasks

Get Started

If you’ve worked with ERP systems and know they can do more when implemented thoughtfully, this role gives you the space to prove it.

The work isn’t about perfection—it’s about building systems that hold up in the real world, where people rely on them every day.
