Senior Functional Consultant F&O

Candidate Description

A seasoned Senior Functional Consultant and finance leader with over 20 years of experience delivering complex ERP transformations across advertising, telecommunications, manufacturing and mining sectors. Recognised for deep expertise in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and earlier AX versions, they blend a rich CFO background with hands-on configuration skills across finance, supply chain, manufacturing and project modules. This professional pairs strong analytical acumen with a collaborative, facilitative leadership style that drives change and performance improvement.

Their technical versatility spans full-cycle ERP implementations, BizTalk integrations, global chart-of-accounts design and advanced reporting using Management Reporter and Tableau. Adept at data migration, UAT management and multi-company roll-outs, they have led AX to Dynamics 365 upgrade programmes, architected cost-accounting frameworks and supported large user-training initiatives. Key achievements include spearheading a 75-entity global Dynamics 365 deployment for a leading advertising group and integrating AX with JD Edwards for a media conglomerate, consistently meeting aggressive timelines and quality expectations.

Complementing hands-on delivery, they offer strategic leadership as former CFO and IT Manager, mentoring cross-functional teams and engaging stakeholders from shop floor to C-suite. Their ability to navigate diverse industries, secure government grants, and align technology with business goals underscores a compelling value proposition: a results-oriented, adaptable ERP expert who bridges finance insight with technical depth to drive sustainable transformation and organisational growth.
