ERP Technical Developer

The ERP Technical Developer will build and support Microsoft Dynamics solutions that help meet operational and business requirements across an enterprise environment. The role exists to deliver reliable enhancements, integrations and ongoing application support, working across either Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations or Business Central. The successful candidate will turn technical requirements into maintainable solutions and help keep core ERP applications stable and effective for their users.

Working across the development lifecycle, you’ll contribute to technical analysis, solution design, coding, debugging, testing and deployment. Your work may include customisations and extensions, application components such as forms, tables, classes, data entities, workflows and reports, as well as business rules and automated processes. Development will use X++ for Finance & Operations or AL for Business Central, depending on the platform and project. Experience with both is welcome, but expertise in one is sufficient.

Integrations are another important part of the role. You’ll develop and maintain connections with external applications using REST APIs, OData, Azure services and platform-specific tools, coordinating interface testing and investigating issues when they arise. You’ll also respond to development requests and incidents raised through the Service Desk, troubleshoot application problems, and work with external vendors on investigation and resolution. The aim is to deliver changes that are scalable, supportable and compatible with future upgrades, while improving system stability and the user experience.

The ERP Technical Developer will work closely with Business Analysts, functional teams, other developers, end users and IT project leadership. Responsibilities also include estimating development effort, contributing to technical documentation and solution design, and taking part in code reviews, source control, build management, testing and deployments. Azure DevOps or comparable tools will support these activities. The role may also involve ERP implementations, upgrades, enhancements, migrations and ongoing application maintenance.

This is a permanent, fully onsite position, with attendance required five days a week. The technology environment centres on Microsoft Dynamics ERP, with relevant experience in Dynamics AX also applicable. The role calls for someone comfortable working in an enterprise setting and supporting business processes across areas such as Finance, Supply Chain Management, Sales and Operations.

To be considered, you’ll bring at least five years of Microsoft Dynamics ERP development experience, including hands-on expertise in one of these areas:

- Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations or Dynamics AX development and customisation using X++.
- Dynamics 365 Business Central or Dynamics NAV development and customisation using AL; legacy NAV/C/AL experience is also relevant.
- ERP customisations, extensions, integrations and application enhancements, alongside knowledge of debugging, testing and application lifecycle processes.
- Integration experience with REST APIs, OData, web services or platform-specific frameworks, and familiarity with Azure DevOps or comparable source control and deployment tools.
- A sound understanding of the software development lifecycle and Microsoft development practices for building maintainable, scalable and upgrade-compatible solutions.

You’ll bring analytical and problem-solving ability, with clear communication and documentation skills to support collaboration across technical and functional teams. Experience with implementations, upgrades, cloud migrations or enterprise application support will be useful. Further relevant exposure could include both Dynamics platforms, Power Platform, Azure integrations, Microsoft Entra ID, the Finance & Operations Data Management Framework, SSRS, Business Central APIs, Power BI or Jet Reports. These are additional strengths rather than requirements.

The package includes medical, dental and vision cover, life insurance, short- and long-term disability, an employee assistance programme, paid holiday and floating days. It also includes a retirement savings plan with employer matching, tuition reimbursement, employee perks and discounts, engagement events, awards and service recognition, plus a travel-to-work or ticket-loan scheme.

The role sits within a manufacturing business operating in the glass, ceramics and concrete sector.
