FAQs

Main Line Talent Group has specialized knowledge in niche ERP recruitment with a multinational network of candidates. Partnering with MLTG allows your internal recruiters and hiring managers to spend time on time-sensitive business objectives. Allow us to do the hard work for you!

We support most IT related functions, technical and functional consultants, project managers, controllers and finance leaders, operations professionals, system administrators, and transformation focused leadership roles where ERP experience enhances effectiveness. The common denominator is meaningful interaction with enterprise systems that drive operational or financial performance.

We support organizations across the full ERP lifecycle, including new system implementations, multi entity rollouts, post merger integrations, module expansions, system upgrades, and post go live optimization initiatives. We also assist with stabilization efforts where organizations need stronger internal ownership, improved reporting accuracy, or tighter process alignment after an implementation. Whether the objective is initial deployment, operational refinement, or long term scalability, we focus on placing professionals who understand both system configuration and the underlying business processes the ERP is meant to support.

For specialized ERP-related roles, we typically present qualified candidates within 3-5 business days. Highly niche requirements may require additional time, depending on market availability and geographic constraints

We primarily support organizations across North America, with a strong concentration in the United States. We are comfortable supporting both onsite and remote roles depending on organizational requirements. We have the capability of sourcing offshore workers if desired.

Executive search firms can have different fee structures that often vary with the complexity and projected time to fill of each search. Rates can range between 15-30% for positions with larger candidate pools and a time to fill projection of 30-60 days, and rate can climb to 30-50% for roles that require extensive networking and outreach and may take as long as 6-9 months to fill. These roles are often technical experts or high ranking leadership roles. Companies will often retain recruitment agencies to fill the more niche roles to ensure a higher level of commitment and resources.

It is commonplace in executive search recruitment to offer guarantee periods for each placement. In the event of an unsuccessful placement, these guarantees often include a free replacement or a refund on the recruitment fee, and often are time bound. The industry standard is known to be 90 days after the candidate’s first day of employment. Some more technical roles, like developer positions, will have a shorter guarantee period because the candidates’ ability to effectively do their jobs is more tangible, whereas, financial professionals or management level candidates often need at least a full 90 days to be evaluated. It is important to align business objectives when engaging executive search firms. Unsuccessful partnerships often arise when there are misaligned expectations.

Yes. Staffing ERP implementation teams is one of MLTG's core capabilities.

Whether you are deploying a new system, upgrading an existing platform, or rescuing a stalled project, we place the functional and technical talent that keeps implementations on track. That includes Business Analysts, Functional Consultants, Solutions Architects, Project Managers, Data Migration Specialists, and Training Leads, across all of the major mid-market ERP platforms we cover.

Engagements can be structured as direct hire for permanent additions to your team, or as contract placements for defined project timelines. If your implementation has a hard go-live date or a specific skill gap that needs to be filled quickly, contract staffing is often the faster path.

We work with end-user companies, VARs, and ISVs, so whether you are the organization going live or the consulting firm running the project, we can support your staffing needs.

Yes! MLTG works with PE-backed portfolio companies at every stage of the ownership cycle, including pre-acquisition diligence support, post-close systems consolidation, and carve-out ERP implementations. If a newly acquired company is running a legacy system that needs to be replaced or upgraded, we can staff the functional talent to get that project done without pulling resources from the operating business.

Yes, and this is a natural fit. Selection firms often win the advisory work and then need functional resources to support the implementation phase that follows. We place Business Analysts, Functional Consultants, Project Managers, and Solutions Architects on a contract basis, so you can bring the right talent in for the duration of the engagement without adding permanent headcount to your firm.
