Explore the Epicor specialism
What is Epicor?
Epicor isn’t one product. It’s a family of mid-market ERP systems built for specific industries: Kinetic for manufacturers, Prophet 21 for distributors, BisTrack and Eclipse for specialist distribution sectors, and Epicor for Service Enterprises. Manufacturing and distribution companies around the world run on it, though the heaviest demand is in the US, especially the Midwest manufacturing belt, the Southeast and Texas.
The same problem keeps coming up in our searches. People with Kinetic experience are easy enough to find. People who know Prophet 21 or BisTrack are not, and most clients don’t realise how small that pool is until they start looking.

Who hires Epicor specialists
Epicor partners (consultancies)
Partners deliver most new implementations, and their work is project-based. A typical career runs from Functional Consultant to Senior, then Lead, and eventually Practice Director.
End user manufacturers and distributors
Businesses that run Kinetic, Prophet 21, BisTrack or Eclipse in-house hire their own functional consultants, administrators and lead architects to look after the system day to day.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does an Epicor consultant do?
Mostly they make the system fit the business. That means working out what the client needs, configuring Epicor to match, testing it with the team, and showing people how to use it. Some consultants sit at a partner firm and bounce between clients. Others work inside one manufacturer or distributor for years.
What is the average Epicor consultant salary in the US?
In 2026, a mid-level Kinetic Functional Consultant makes about $90,000 to $120,000. Practice directors can hit $180,000 to $240,000 or more. Our Epicor Salary Guide 2026 breaks it down role by role.
Why do Prophet 21 and BisTrack specialists earn more than Kinetic consultants?
There just aren’t many of them. Kinetic people are easy to find. Prophet 21 and BisTrack people aren’t, and clients keep asking for them. So the pay runs 5 to 10% higher.
Where are the best Epicor jobs in the US?
The Midwest manufacturing belt, the Southeast and Texas have the most openings. Some remote and hybrid roles exist too, mainly at partner firms. Our live jobs board shows what’s open right now.
Which certifications help an Epicor consultant earn more?
Start with Kinetic Certified Consultant if you’re in a functional role. Developers need the Kinetic Technical / BPM Customization cert. Training in Prophet 21, BisTrack or Eclipse pays off because few people have it. If you work in manufacturing, APICS CPIM or CSCP gives you an edge.
