D365 ERP Project Manager

The requirements have already been established and an implementation partner is in place. They now need an experienced, hands-on Project Manager to represent the business, work closely with the SI and keep the programme moving in the right direction.

The Role

Acting as the link between the internal business teams and the implementation partner, you will provide day-to-day ownership of the project and ensure the solution is delivered smoothly.

• Coordinate business stakeholders, technical teams and third parties
• Challenge the SI constructively and hold them accountable for delivery
• Identify risks, remove blockers and escalate issues where required
• Support testing, data migration, business readiness and go-live planning
• Provide clear progress reporting to senior stakeholders

• Previous experience managing a Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain implementation
• Experience working client-side alongside a systems integrator
• Proven ownership of complex ERP implementation projects
• Strong stakeholder and third-party supplier management skills
• Experience supporting testing, data migration and go-live activities
