ERP Manufacturing Consultant
Permanent
Hybrid / Flexible Working
Experienced in Epicor, Infor, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics or another leading manufacturing ERP solution? Ready to take your expertise into a consulting environment?
Chapman Tate Associates is working with an established and growing ERP consultancy looking to appoint an experienced ERP Manufacturing Consultant to support its expanding client base.
This is an opportunity for someone who understands manufacturing from both an operational and systems perspective. Whether you're already working as an ERP Consultant or you're an experienced ERP specialist within a manufacturing business looking to move into consultancy, we'd be interested in speaking with you.
You'll work directly with clients to understand their manufacturing processes, identify opportunities for improvement and deliver ERP solutions that make a genuine difference to their operations.
The Opportunity
Working across ERP implementations, upgrades and optimisation projects, you'll help manufacturing businesses improve efficiency, streamline processes and maximise their ERP investment.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Leading functional ERP consultancy across manufacturing and distribution environments.
- Understanding client requirements and translating them into practical ERP solutions.
- Configuring and implementing ERP manufacturing functionality.
- Supporting production planning, MRP, bills of materials (BOM), routings, scheduling and shop floor processes.
- Improving inventory management, purchasing, warehousing and supply chain operations.
- Supporting ERP implementations, data migration, testing and go-live activities.
- Working closely with technical teams, developers and key business stakeholders.
- Delivering training and providing ongoing guidance to clients.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience working for an ERP partner or consultancy would be advantageous, but we're equally interested in experienced end-user specialists who are ready to take the next step.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
You'll be joining a growing consultancy where your experience and ideas will genuinely be valued.
You'll have the opportunity to work with a variety of manufacturing clients, tackle different operational challenges and continue developing your ERP expertise.
It's an opportunity to move beyond day-to-day system support and become involved in delivering meaningful business transformation.
Interested?
If you have strong manufacturing ERP experience and enjoy solving business problems, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.
You don't need to have worked exclusively with Epicor. We're particularly interested in individuals with transferable manufacturing ERP expertise who are keen to develop their consulting careers.
