Built on Experience. Driven by Passion.

K9 Recruitment is a women-owned boutique firm placing Epicor talent with manufacturers and distributors across the U.S. and Canada. Kinetic, Prophet 21, and legacy E9 and E10 — direct hire, contract, and contract-to-hire.

K9 was built on a passion for helping rescue animals. Every placement we do, we give back to those in need.

Our Story

Epicor is the whole business

Nearly a decade of recruiting, and the last stretch of it entirely inside Epicor. That's long enough to know which consultants have actually configured Kinetic and which ones sat next to someone who did — and long enough that most of the people we place, we already know.

We recruit across other mid-market ERPs where we're the right fit. But Epicor is where our network runs deepest, and it's why clients call us instead of a generalist agency.

Kinetic, Prophet 21, legacy E9 and E10 — we recruit across the entire Epicor family, and we know the difference between them. That matters more than most job descriptions assume: a P21 specialist is not a Kinetic specialist, and treating them as interchangeable is how a search stalls for six months.

We place contract, permanent direct hires, and executive leadership — primarily with manufacturers and distributors across the U.S. and Canada. We recruit for other mid-market ERPs as well, including Infor, Sage, and Acumatica, but Epicor is where our network runs deepest.

If you're exploring your next move, you're in good hands. And if nothing feels like the right fit today, send us your resume — we'll connect when the right opportunity shows up.

Four ways to work with us

Every company grows differently. Whether you're covering a phase, replacing someone key, or building Epicor expertise in-house for good — here's how that usually looks.

Contract Consultants

Independent Epicor consultants for a defined piece of work: a migration, an upgrade, a module rollout. Pure time and materials — no minimum hours, no block to buy out.

Direct hire

Permanent Epicor people who stay after go-live. If you're live on Kinetic and still calling consultants for routine changes, this is usually the cheaper answer within a year.

Contract-to-hire

Start someone on contract, convert them if it works. Useful when the role is new and the scope is still moving.

Retained search

For the hire you can't get wrong — an ERP lead, a systems manager, a director. Upfront commitment, dedicated focus, and a shortlist we stand behind.

Top Talent. Right Fit. Delivered Fast.

How It Works

A call.

Fifteen minutes on what you actually need — the product, the version, the problem you're trying to solve. You're talking to us, not our coordinator.

The brief.

We pin down scope, deliverables, and what "good" looks like for this specific role, so we're not guessing.

A shortlist.

Real Epicor people who've confirmed interest, usually within 24–72 hours. Not a database dump.

Interviews.

We schedule, prep candidates, and tell you honestly how each one landed.

After the offer.

We stay involved through the start date and check in afterwards — a placement that doesn't stick isn't a placement.

Looking for your next Epicor role?

We work on Epicor roles that mostly never get posted — Kinetic, Prophet 21, E9 and E10, contract through permanent, across the U.S. and Canada. Send your resume even if nothing here matches today. We'd rather know you before we need you.

What Clients and Candidates Say

Client & Candidate Testimonials

Director of Product Development at Cre8tive Technology and Design
I highly recommend Kayla Russetto as a talent partner and recruiter. Kayla is an outstanding professional who genuinely cares about helping companies find the right talent—not just filling roles. She takes the time to understand both the business needs and the people behind the resumes, which makes a real difference in the quality of her placements
Vice President of Professional Services at an Epicor Channel Partner
I have worked with Kayla for the last three years. She brought me many qualified candidates, and the ones I hired hung around and became valuable team members. Kayla has an eye for talent and knows how to match it with her clients’ needs. When we first partnered, Kayla took the time to understand our needs as a company and my communication style, and she tailored her work accordingly. She is fast to react to my requests, and she communicates well. I enjoy working with Kayla and recommend her to anyone looking to fill a slot or grow a team in the ERP space.
Epicor ERP Systems Manager
I recently had the pleasure of working with Kayla during a job search.  She excelled at every turn in my search.  So often a recruiter will reach out and then ignore you, but Kayla stayed in very frequent contact.  I felt like she was a 5 star realtor with the amount of VIP attention I got from her.  Every question I had along the way, she quickly got an answer for, and when the offer was delayed, she kept me informed as to what was going on.  The offer came in exactly in the middle of my range.  I would without hesitation use her services again, but she did such a great job placing me in the right spot, I'm sure I won't be looking again anytime soon.

FAQs

Quick answers to common questions about our services and process. Need more help? Just reach out.

For Clients

What ERP systems do you specialize in?

Epicor is our bread and butter. Kinetic and Prophet 21, as well as legacy E9 and E10 — that's the overwhelming majority of what we place, and it's where our network runs deepest. We also recruit across other mid-market ERPs, including Sage, Infor, and Acumatica.

Our Epicor implementation has stalled. Can you help?

This is the most common call we get. It's rarely a software problem; usually the project is waiting on a partner's shared resources, or there's nobody internal who owns the system day to day. We place the specific person who unblocks it: a consultant to push the current phase over the line, or a permanent hire so the expertise stays with you after go-live.

What does an Epicor resource cost through K9?

Typically less than the large implementation partners. We're a lean firm placing independent consultants, so there's no partner overhead built into the rate — that's structural, not a discount. We also work purely on time and materials. You're not buying a block of hours you may not use, and you're not locked into a minimum. Tell us the scope and we'll come back with a rate the same day. Direct- hire candidate fees are based off a percentage of the candidate's compensation.

How do you vet candidates?

Qualification calls, reference checks, and a real conversation about how someone works, not just what's on the resume. For Epicor roles we go deeper — which product, which version, and which modules within Kinetic they've actually configured rather than sat adjacent to.

How quickly can you present candidates?

For most Epicor roles, 24–72 hours. We keep an active bench of Epicor professionals and stay in contact with people who aren't publicly looking — which is where the strongest candidates usually are.

What happens if the person doesn't work out?

Direct-hire placements carry a guarantee. If it doesn't work out inside the window, we find you a replacement at no additional fee. Contract placements can be ended with notice — there's no minimum term to buy out.

For Candidates

Do I need to pay to work with K9 Recruitment?

Never. We’re paid by employers, so our services are always free for job seekers.

What kinds of Epicor roles do you place?

Epicor Consultants (1099, Corp to Corp, W2), developers, analysts, administrators, data migration specialists, and technical leads — across Kinetic, Prophet 21, and legacy ERP10 and E9. Contract, contract-to-hire, and permanent.

I don't see a job that matches my background. Should I still reach out?

Yes. Most of our roles can be found through our LinkedIn. Send your resume and we'll come to you when something fits — we'd rather know you before we need you and have you in our network.

Can you help me find remote work?

Absolutely. Many of our clients support remote or hybrid options, especially for contract roles.

Do you only work in the U.S.?

We work across both the U.S. and Canada. If you’re authorized to work in either country, we’d love to connect.

Where can I submit my resume and book a call?
