## Job description

As a Senior Consultant on Unanet’s AEC Professional Services team, you will serve as a trusted advisor and hands-on solution expert to architecture and engineering clients. You will lead multiple implementations of varying complexity across the full lifecycle, from discovery through go-live, aligning Unanet’s ERP software with each client’s business processes, accounting requirements, and project management needs. Through implementation, training, and adoption support, you will help clients achieve successful outcomes and build a solution that can scale with their evolving business.

## What You'll Do

- Lead discovery sessions and translate clients' business processes, accounting policies, and operational requirements into scalable Unanet ERP solutions, including invoicing, revenue recognition, labor costing, project accounting, cost pools, and overhead allocations
- Leverage AI-powered tools and internal automations to improve the efficiency and quality of data migration, system configuration, and client onboarding activities
- Lead clients through the full implementation lifecycle, including requirements gathering, configuration, data migration, training, testing, and go-live, using Unanet's milestone-based implementation methodology
- Partner with clients during their first financial close cycle to support reconciliation activities, strengthen process consistency, and build confidence in month-end procedures and controls
- Lead client training and change management activities to drive adoption, process alignment, and successful business outcomes
- Partner with project managers to deliver engagements on schedule, within budget, and aligned with client objectives while managing multiple concurrent implementations
- Mentor less experienced consultants, particularly on complex or multi-resource implementations, and contribute to the continuous improvement of Professional Services methodologies and best practices
- Maintain expertise in Unanet capabilities and emerging product functionality to provide trusted advisory guidance to clients
- Travel up to 30% (as needed) to support client engagements

## Your First 90 Days

You'll develop a personalized training plan with your manager and shadow at least two (2) client implementations to gain firsthand experience with our implementation methodology and client engagements.

In your first 60 days, you'll continue progressing through your training plan while participating in additional implementation engagements alongside experienced consultants. Through hands-on practice using recorded resources and a demo environment, you'll become proficient in Unanet Time & Expense and begin contributing to client implementation activities under the guidance of senior team members.

In your first 90 days, you'll expand your expertise in Unanet Financials, take ownership of portions of live client implementations, and confidently support customers through key implementation milestones. By the end of your first 90 days, you'll be making meaningful contributions to client engagements while achieving a 25% billable utilization target.
