## About the Role

Provide hypercare after each go-live and build the handover: support documentation, interface runbooks and knowledge transfer to the permanent support team before contract end. Essential experience At least two years' hands-on Business Central delivery, with practical competence in both finance configuration and AL development; candidates may lean functional or technical but must work independently in both. BC finance configuration: posting groups and setups, dimensions, journals, approvals, permissions and the core sales, purchase and finance flows. Production AL delivery: VS Code, extensions and events, APIs, OData or web services, debugging, source control and controlled deployment through sandbox and production environments. At least one full implementation or major rollout from build through go-live. Hands-on data migration using configuration packages; RapidStart experience from NAV or earlier BC versions counts. Able to explain technical and data issues clearly to finance
users, in person and in writing. Desirable A NAV and C/AL background, including experience transitioning legacy customisations to AL extensions. A delivered interface to a non-Microsoft operational system. Power BI report building against BC data. AP automation ISVs (Continia or similar). Jobs, projects or costing module experience. Why this role This is an end-user platform role, not a partner consultancy seat. The mandate is approved and sponsored by the group's chief executive, the architecture is set by a hands-on lead, and the work is build, load, test and cutover from week one. The rollout is phased across the group's trading businesses, with the first go-live targeted within months of joining. JBRP1_UKTJ

## Description

infrastructure, and finance superusers in each business, who carry UAT, with business superusers joining for phase two. Data cleansing sits with the businesses. Group Finance owns accounting policy, data quality, UAT acceptance and financial sign-off. Key responsibilities Configure BC companies from the group template: posting setups, number series, journals, approval workflows and user permissions. Run data loads: configuration packages, master data, opening balances, and the reconciliation work that proves them through to Group Finance sign-off. Carry the bulk of AL development to the standards set by the lead solution architect: interim interfaces to the legacy NAV estate, integrations to the operational systems, and extensions where standard BC falls short. Run test cycles to the lead solution architect's plan: prepare scripts, support superuser-led UAT in each business, fix defects and retest. Support cutovers in person: training, floor-walking and first-week support at each go-live.
