M/SM Technical Architect

The M/SM Technical Architect will be instrumental in designing and delivering robust technical solutions within a Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (D365 F&O) environment. This role exists to support a growing function focused on enhancing operational efficiency and driving innovation through technology enablement. The successful candidate will leverage their expertise to improve system performance, ensuring that the architecture aligns with both current business demands and future growth objectives. Working in a hybrid setting, this position offers the flexibility of remote working combined with up to 75% client site engagement, fostering collaboration within a dedicated specialist team.

In this position, the M/SM Technical Architect takes ownership of the technical landscape surrounding D365 F&O, applying advanced knowledge of X++ programming to tailor the platform’s capabilities to the organisation’s needs. The role encompasses the design and implementation of scalable solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing systems across diverse functional areas. Day-to-day responsibilities include leading technical discussions and decisions, mentoring junior developers, and collaborating closely with cross-functional stakeholders to translate complex business requirements into workable architectures. Staying current with industry best practices and emerging technology trends is key to maintaining an innovative and competitive environment.

The technical environment revolves around the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations platform, a critical tool for streamlining financial and operational processes. Deep proficiency in D365 F&O architecture and integration techniques will enable the architect to optimise workflows and enhance system functionalities. This role also demands a clear ability to communicate sophisticated technical concepts effectively to both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders, ensuring alignment and clarity across the project lifecycle. The implementation direction covers enhancing performance, customisation through X++, and system integration points that promote a stable yet flexible enterprise platform.

This permanent role, set to commence on 22 September 2025, features hybrid working arrangements designed to balance autonomy with the benefits of in-person collaboration. The successful candidate will spend up to three-quarters of their time on client sites, working alongside various teams to maintain momentum on ongoing projects and initiatives. The remaining working hours can be managed remotely, offering an adaptable approach suited to experienced professionals who value both focus and connection.

A comprehensive benefits package accompanies this role, including participation in a Retirement Savings Plan/401(K) Match with pension contributions, alongside medical and dental insurance. These benefits demonstrate a commitment to employee wellbeing and long-term financial security.

Ideal candidates will possess substantial experience working within the Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations environment, with proven expertise in X++ development and a thorough understanding of the platform’s architecture and integration strategies. Previous involvement in technical solution design, especially in complex or large-scale implementations, is highly desirable. Strong analytical skills and a collaborative working style will be essential for success, particularly given the close cross-team cooperation this role requires. The ability to mentor and guide less experienced developers will be a valuable asset in fostering a high-functioning technical team.

This position is part of the wider management consulting industry, focusing on delivering technology-driven services that enable business transformation and operational excellence. The role offers a chance to influence how enterprise systems evolve to meet changing business priorities within a dynamic service-oriented environment. Demonstrating expertise as a M/SM Technical Architect here means contributing not only to immediate project delivery but also to establishing sustainable, scalable technology foundations for the future.
