P21 Technical/Functional Consultant (Contract) – Remote | Immediate Need
Are you a hands-on P21 expert who thrives in high-stakes environments and knows how to deliver real results? Our client—a global leader in wholesale distribution—has an immediate opening for a seasoned P21 Technical/Functional Consultant to help drive a mission-critical implementation across a massive footprint. This is a fast-moving opportunity for someone ready to make a visible impact at scale.
This 6-month full-time contract role offers 100% remote flexibility and the chance to work on one of the largest and most complex Prophet 21 (P21) rollouts in North America. The system is heavily customized, hosted in Azure, and currently supporting over 1,500 users across 140+ locations and multiple distribution centers.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Tackle critical technical challenges, with immediate focus on editing and resolving suspended records that failed at interface—an urgent and essential issue for go-live.
Support P21 integration across various business functions including distribution, inventory, and warehouse management (Latitude).
Contribute to ongoing configuration, interface troubleshooting, and system optimization in a highly customized environment.
Work cross-functionally with functional leads and technical teams to ensure clean data and smooth transitions.
Provide insight, training, and support to end-users and stakeholders throughout the deployment process.
What We’re Looking For:
Proven experience in Prophet 21 (P21), including hands-on work with suspended records and back-end troubleshooting.
Strong technical background with ERP implementations, particularly in highly customized, complex environments.
Experience integrating P21 with warehouse management systems like Latitude is a plus.
Comfort navigating legacy transitions (mainframe to modern ERP).
Strong communication and problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently in a fast-paced, remote setting.
Nice-to-Have Skills:
Experience with P21 in Azure-hosted environments.
Functional exposure to distribution, supply chain, or logistics workflows.
Background in change management or user training during ERP transitions.
The staffing industry has seen an increase in people falsely representing themselves as recruiters to gather personal information from job seekers. For your safety, do not provide sensitive data to anyone you have not spoken with thoroughly, never provide banking information during the application process and always double check the email address of the Recruiter to ensure it’s from an official Planet domain (@theplanetgroup.com or @launchcg.com) - and not a domain with an alternative extension like .net, .org or .jobs.
