• Achieve ambitious (but achievable) revenue targets while driving growth across ERP and broader Consulting service lines.

About you:

• Minimum 7+ years’ experience (with 10+ preferred) selling ERP solutions, with a ‘Hunter’ mindset and proven experience in managing and executing mid-market and enterprise ERP deals (consideration for other complex software or technology solution sales experience).

• Proven record of accomplishment and success managing, pursuing, and closing complex, high-value ERP opportunities.

• Strong solution-selling, negotiation, presentation, and stakeholder management skills.

• Ability to lead ERP sales and work with a team to deliver client outcomes.

• Commercially minded, and process-driven with the ability to articulate business value through value selling techniques and deliver ROI and TCO for client projects.

• Strong existing network, and ability to building ongoing networks.

• Proven ERP business development capabilities, including experience with ERP deal cycles, sales methodologies and deal strategy and qualification.

• Relevant tertiary qualification in Business, Commerce, Marketing, Information Technology or a related discipline, or equivalent industry experience.

• Experience developing thought leadership, industry engagement initiatives, and strategic marketing activities.

• Knowledge and proven experience leading ERP pursuits, particularly Oracle NetSuite and Microsoft Dynamics, with exposure to SAP, Epicor, MYOB Acumatica, Sage, Pronto or Infor highly regarded.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a high-performing sales professional to leverage their ERP expertise, expand their network and play a key role in growing RSM’s national ERP Consulting practice.
