Executive franchise partners in non-strategic cost optimization
Expense Reduction Analysts (ERA Group) is expanding its network in Belgium. Its franchise model offers an opportunity for executives who are remunerated based on their success in delivering measurable cost savings/operational improvements for clients
The position
Do you want to start your own consulting business?
Supported by ERA Group's proven business model, you will develop your own consultancy on an independent basis while leveraging an internationally recognized brand, methodology, and support structure. An initial investment through a franchise license agreement is required to join the network.
Together with fellow partners, you will develop new client relationships and manage existing accounts. You will analyse cost optimization opportunities, identify profit improvement levers, and implement supplier solutions under the best possible market conditions.
You will work on projects both independently and in close collaboration with local and international colleagues (1,000+ professionals globally), each specialized in specific expense categories. You will rely on proprietary tools, benchmarking intelligence, and the extensive expertise of the ERA network.
As part of the Belgian team, you will work with large and mid-sized companies, public institutions, and international organizations, advising primarily on non-strategic operating expenses and procurement optimization.
Profile
Business Developer – Project / Client Manager – Expense & Project Analyst
You are a senior professional with at least 10 years of experience in one or more relevant domains. You are motivated to run your own consulting business under the ERA Group brand. Previous consulting experience is not required; professional credibility, entrepreneurial drive, and relationship skills are key.
You recognize yourself in one or more of the following three roles:
(1) Business Developer
You bring strong commercial acumen and an established professional network.
You are able to:
Develop C-level relationships
Originate consulting opportunities
Build long-term client partnerships
Structure and negotiate consulting mandates
(2) Project / Client Manager
You act as the strategic interface between the client and the delivery team.
You are responsible for:
Executive stakeholder management
Coordinating project delivery
Monitoring implementation progress
Ensuring savings realization
Guaranteeing client satisfaction
(3) Expense & Project Analyst
You bring analytical depth and functional expertise in specific cost areas such as:
Procurement & Supply Chain
IT & Telecommunications
Energy & Utilities
Logistics & Freight
Facilities & Operations
Finance & Administration
You are able to:
Conduct cost diagnostics
Benchmark suppliers
Identify optimization levers
Support implementation
Quantify financial impact
An ERA partner often combines these three dimensions, with either a stronger commercial or operational orientation. As this is a franchise opportunity, you are willing to invest in your consultancy and have the financial capacity to support the start-up phase during the first year.
Offer
Do you want to become part of a global network of business professionals?
If this business proposition aligns with your ambitions, an initial discussion will address investment levels, business planning, and expected return scenarios.
As a next step, you will meet with the Managing Partner for Belgium and relevant Belgian and international partners to validate mutual expectations and strategic fit.
This opportunity enables you to leverage your corporate experience to build your own consulting practice, gain entrepreneurial freedom, and significantly increase your earning potential.
Within ERA Group, you will join a strong, multidisciplinary network of senior executives with 10–30 years of management experience and extensive cross-border collaboration opportunities.
Beyond the proven and innovative business model, ERA's international platform provides continuous support through training, coaching, advanced technology tools, marketing programs, and business development frameworks. This results in relatively low entrepreneurial risk, resilience to economic cycles, and an improved work-life balance.
We look forward to hearing from you.
