Background

Consulting firms focused on ERP transformation depend on highly specialized talent to deliver successful implementations and support complex client environments.

As JumpModel continued growing its IFS consulting practice, it needed to strengthen its delivery team with an IFS Functional Consultant who could support client projects, improve implementation quality, and help maintain strong consulting standards across industrial sectors. Because the role required a rare combination of ERP expertise, functional understanding, and consulting capability, the company needed a structured hiring process that could identify the right candidate quickly without compromising on quality.

Challenges

Hiring for ERP consulting roles requires more than general business systems experience. Companies need candidates who understand the platform deeply, can work closely with clients, and know how to translate business needs into functional solutions.

JumpModel needed to hire an IFS Functional Consultant who could contribute directly to implementation projects and support clients across operationally complex industries. This required a candidate with strong IFS ERP knowledge, consulting skills, and the ability to work in environments where process accuracy and business impact matter.

Because experienced IFS specialists are difficult to find and highly competitive in the market, the company needed a recruitment process that could move efficiently while maintaining a clear and structured evaluation framework.

Limited availability of consultants with deep IFS ERP expertise

Need for a candidate who could support both client delivery and functional implementation

Requirement for strong consulting skills in complex industrial environments

Competitive hiring market for niche ERP talent

Need for a structured hiring process with clear evaluation criteria

Solution

OnHires implemented a recruitment strategy tailored to JumpModel’s consulting environment and ERP hiring needs.

We began with role calibration sessions to define the responsibilities, expectations, and success criteria for the IFS Functional Consultant position. The focus was on IFS functional expertise, consulting capability, stakeholder communication, and the ability to contribute effectively to transformation projects across industrial client environments.

We then launched a targeted sourcing pipeline across ERP consulting, IFS implementation, and enterprise systems talent pools. Structured interview workflows and calibrated scorecards helped standardize candidate evaluation, while weekly hiring operations improved stakeholder alignment, accelerated feedback, and reduced delays throughout the process.

OnHires managed the recruitment process end to end, from sourcing and screening to offer coordination and onboarding support.
