Senior D365 FinOps Functional Lead — Business Applications

Candidate Description

A seasoned Senior Functional Lead and Solution Architect with over two decades of global Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and Dynamics AX delivery expertise across distribution, manufacturing, retail, building-products and healthcare sectors. Adept at steering full-cycle implementations, this professional combines deep Advanced Warehouse Management specialisation with broad finance and supply-chain acumen, enabling them to uncover and resolve cross-module design gaps early. They confidently front client engagements, manage multi-entity, multi-wave programmes and translate complex business requirements into scalable D365 solutions.

Their technical acumen is reflected in hands-on configuration of Advanced Warehouse pick strategies, security-role design aligned to Segregation-of-Duties policies, Power Platform prototyping with Power Apps, Dataverse and Power Automate, and governance of Azure DevOps-driven delivery pipelines. Key achievements include rescuing the global Dynamics AX rollout for a Propulsion Company, implementing cycle-based blind-picking verification for a Manufacturing Company, and automating AP Segregation of Duties remediation at a Retail Company using a Compliance Tool. They routinely craft functional design documentation, execute user-acceptance testing and lead cut-over and hyper-care to ensure smooth transitions into BAU support.

Leveraging leadership experience gained at a Technology Provider, a Healthcare Company and their own consultancy, they mentor cross-functional teams, manage partner and vendor relationships and communicate effectively with C-suite stakeholders. Their blend of recovery expertise, delivery planning proficiency and practitioner-level functional depth positions them as a valuable asset for organisations seeking to stabilise, optimise or transform Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations environments while unlocking measurable business value.
