Who we are looking for
Due to continued growth with our Microsoft and Enterprise Applications practices, we currently have opportunities for functional consultants at Manager grade with a proven track record in the delivery of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations solutions.
We would like to hear from experienced Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations functional consultants with implementation project experience and with skills in one or more of the following areas - Financials, Procurement, Supply Chain, Sales, Manufacturing, Material Resource Planning, and Reporting / BI.
The requirement is for a candidate with project experience; gained with Big 4, major SI/IT service provider or equivalent industry experience.
About the role
The role sits within the Enterprise Applications group, a rapidly growing part of PwC's Technology practice. You will be an integral part of the team responsible for the delivery of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations solutions across a range of sectors with a focus on Industrial Products, Business Services, Retail & Consumer (initially). You will have the opportunity to work with an exciting and extensive client base and also the chance to receive high quality training.
The role is focused on project delivery for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations. You will support clients during all stages of an implementation. Our projects are typically business transformation enabled by technology projects rather than 'rip and replace / upgrades per se' and the role requires supporting clients in the design of future processes and systems. This requires expertise in processes and systems.
Based on clients' requirements the candidates will provide functional Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations expertise to discuss and design potential solutions, or will quality assure and recommend changes to designs provided by other parties.
At Manager grade, the role requires that the candidates can lead relevant workstreams and projects centred on any one or combination of Financials, Procurement, Supply Chain, Sales, Manufacturing, Material Resource Planning, and Reporting / BI. Therefore, good client handling skills are paramount.
Candidates will be expected to build-up a solid internal knowledge-based network and to contribute actively to the development of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations practice.
