We're recruiting on behalf of a client based in South West London who is undertaking a major transformation project: migrating their Microsoft Dynamics Business Central environment from an on-premise deployment (version 18 / 2021 release wave 1) to Azure-based cloud Business Central (current release). The client's existing environment includes a significant volume of customisation, and while the platform has been AL-based throughout this range, real-world customisations built over that period often carry technical debt that needs to be properly assessed, tested, and reworked for the current cloud platform. We're looking for someone who can own that translation from a functional standpoint.
What You'll Be Doing
- Leading the functional side of the migration from on-premise Business Central to Azure cloud
- Identifying and explaining the functional differences between the legacy on-premise version and the current cloud platform
- Advising on Business Central licensing models appropriate for the client's post-migration setup
- Working closely with the client's technical/infrastructure team, who are handling the underlying cloud and Azure setup
- Acting as the go-to Business Central product expert throughout the engagement - flagging quirks, gaps, and version-specific nuances before they become problems
What We're Looking For
- Deep, hands-on Business Central expertise
- Experience with both older, on-premise Business Central/NAV environments and current cloud Business Central, including a solid understanding of how functionality and customisation approaches differ between them
- Strong working knowledge of Business Central licensing and licensing models
- Prior experience on an on-premise-to-cloud Business Central migration is highly desirable
- Available for a contract role of circa 12 months, based around South West London
