Functional Consultant

Candidate Description

Specializing in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and Supply Chain Management, this functional consultant brings nearly five years of end-to-end ERP delivery experience. Their background spans logistics, distribution, information technology, manufacturing, and the not-for-profit sector. At an IT services company, they contributed to six implementation and enhancement projects, supported ten pre-sales engagements, and provided ongoing service to more than a dozen support customers. Core strengths include supply chain, advanced warehousing, procurement, manufacturing, data migration, and solution design. They combine analytical thinking with practical requirements gathering, stakeholder engagement, and a focus on clear, adoptable business solutions. A Master of Business Management and a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering from a university complement their functional expertise with business, supply chain, engineering, and project management knowledge.

Complex migration delivery is a particular strength, supported by hands-on ownership of extraction, cleansing, mapping, validation, and readiness reporting. For a national family aid and disability support not-for-profit, they led migration of more than 250,000 historical transactional records alongside high-volume vendor and customer data. For a shipping and logistics company’s programme, they delivered the migration workstream across five legal entities and helped establish a centralized information model for integrated extraction, transformation, and loading activities. Their reporting capabilities include Power BI dashboards, advanced Excel, and operational reporting, with Jira and Azure DevOps supporting delivery coordination. At a manufacturing company, they implemented ERP enhancements for inventory management, production scheduling, and reporting, while digitizing legacy production records and automating manual processes. Their Microsoft credentials and continued development cover Dynamics 365 Finance, Core Finance & Operations, Supply Chain Management and Manufacturing, Azure AI Fundamentals, Copilot Studio, and Microsoft Purview.

Collaborative delivery underpins their approach, from discovery workshops and tailored demonstrations to hands-on training and post-go-live support. They translate business needs into implementation roadmaps and coordinate effectively across client stakeholders, consultants, teams, and platforms. Ownership of a ten-customer support desk strengthened their ability to triage issues, prioritize requests, and coordinate resolution. An early adopter of Microsoft AI tooling, they have applied Dynamics 365 AI agents, piloted an expense-management application, and explored reusable Power Platform solution patterns through a self-directed build. Their adaptability also extends to a personal AI-assisted fitness planning and tracking application, supported by fitness instruction and personal training certifications. They offer employers a well-rounded combination of ERP functional delivery, migration leadership, client-facing consulting, and practical AI adoption focused on reliable systems and improved user outcomes.
