Senior Dynamics 365 Finance Consultant
Role Summary
We are seeking a highly experienced Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations Consultant to deliver a full end -to -end D365 F&O implementation. This role requires deep functional expertise, strong solution architecture capability, hands -on configuration experience, and the confidence to work directly with senior stakeholders, finance leaders, and technical teams.
The consultant will be responsible for shaping the solution, leading design decisions, configuring the platform, overseeing integrations and data migration, managing testing and cutover, and supporting post -go -live stabilisation. This is not a support -only or module -specific role — we are looking for someone who has implemented D365 F&O multiple times in real organisations.
This role is open to both:
Permanent candidates who want long -term platform ownership and evolution, and
Experienced contractors who specialise in ERP implementations and can drive delivery at pace.
In either case, the expectation is the same: full lifecycle ownership, strong functional leadership, and hands -on delivery capability.
