About the role

  • HCM Solution Consultant guiding businesses in ERP modernization initiatives. Serving as a trusted advisor, optimizing Human Capital Management processes without direct system configurations.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as a trusted, client-facing advisor supporting ERP modernization initiatives across Human Capital Management (HCM) functions, including Payroll, Benefits, Talent Acquisition, Career Management, and employee self-service.
  • Lead business process fit-gap analyses to assess alignment between client business processes and ERP solution capabilities, identifying opportunities to improve performance through process optimization rather than customization.
  • Partner with project teams and business stakeholders to document current-state workflows across complex application landscapes, including core ERP modules, third-party tools, and culturally embedded “shadow IT” systems.
  • Develop actionable recommendations to address functional gaps through business process changes, governance, or tooling alternatives, clearly articulating risks, impacts, and trade-offs.
  • Advise clients on handling unique or non-standard business processes when solution functionality could not fully address requirements, including mitigation strategies and change management considerations.
  • Support future-state process design aligned to ERP modernization vision, business drivers, and guiding principles, ensuring consistency with industry standards and usability best practices.
  • Contribute to agile, iterative deployment approaches by identifying opportunities for early wins and incremental adoption across HCM functions.
  • Document risks, issues, and potential long-term costs associated with maintaining legacy processes or failing to address identified gaps, enabling informed executive decision-making.

Requirements

  • Minimum of 5+ years of client-facing consulting experience supporting HCM, ERP, or enterprise business transformation initiatives, preferably in a K-12 or government setting.
  • Demonstrated experience performing business process analysis and fit-gap assessments for HCM functions, including Payroll, Benefits, Talent Acquisition, Career Management, and employee self-service.
  • Proven ability to advise clients on process optimization, governance, and operational change as alternatives to system customization or configuration.
  • Experience working within complex application environments that include multiple ERP modules, third-party systems, and legacy or “shadow IT” solutions.
  • Strong facilitation and documentation skills, with experience leading workshops, capturing current- and future-state workflows, and developing executive-ready recommendations.
  • Ability to assess and communicate risks, impacts, and long-term costs associated with maintaining legacy processes or deferring recommended changes.
  • Experience supporting ERP modernization efforts aligned to defined business drivers, guiding principles, and industry best practices.

Benefits

  • Must be local to Portland with ability to be onsite as needed.
