Specialising in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and Dynamics AX2012 delivery, the candidate combines senior ERP project leadership with a career spanning application development, management consulting and complex business transformation. Their experience covers retail, financial services, superannuation, healthcare, aged care, aviation, telecommunications, and food production and manufacturing. At a Technology Company, they have led end-to-end ERP implementations across complex organisations, multiple group businesses and vendor ecosystems. Their international delivery experience includes APAC and North America, supported by integration relationships involving Australian, US, German and Canadian organisations. They bring particular strength in aligning business and technical priorities, managing delivery risk and maintaining operational continuity during significant change.

Complex implementation and transition leadership underpins their strongest achievements. For a Healthcare and Community Services Provider through a Consulting Firm, they oversaw finance and procurement requirements for consolidation onto Microsoft Dynamics AX2012, including chart-of-accounts alignment, controls, testing and infrastructure transition. Their assignments for an Airline covered reservation-system replacement, centralised load control and operational readiness, including cutover planning across more than 50 interfaces and more than 150 team members. For a Telecommunications Company, they delivered transformation benefits on time and within budget, managing $3.5 million in direct resource costs with benefits making delivery cost-neutral over three years. Their delivery expertise encompasses integration planning, data migration, architecture coordination, configuration and environment management, governance, testing and operational transition. They are a PRINCE2 Practitioner and Certified Scrum Master, with additional training in MSP 2003, Project Server 2010, stakeholder management and consulting skills.

Their leadership style combines structured accountability with practical coaching, stakeholder influence and vendor engagement. They have led multidisciplinary operational teams, mentored 12 technical direct reports at an Aged Care Provider and supported consulting capability development at a Consulting Firm. Earlier experience at a Financial Institution included implementing resource-management capability for 1,000 application-delivery staff across four UK locations and an offshore partner in India. A Diploma in IT from a college complements their development background, while earlier education includes five O Levels in Milton Keynes. They adapt delivery approaches to organisational culture and operating constraints while maintaining focus on governance, benefits and business readiness. As a Brisbane-based Australian citizen available in two weeks, they offer a combination of Microsoft ERP delivery leadership, technical understanding and cross-industry transformation experience.
