Project Manager D365 F&O

An organization is consolidating the supply chain and finance processes of its market groups onto a single future-proof ERP platform. By phasing out legacy systems, we are creating clearer processes, more reliable data, and a stronger foundation for further growth and future AI capabilities. The direction and roadmap are established. As an ERP Project Manager, you will bring structure and seniority to a complex change program where processes, data, technology, and various stakeholders converge.

You will be a strong sparring partner for experienced professionals and leadership.

What you will do.

• You will translate the existing roadmap into a clear delivery rhythm, with concrete priorities, milestones, and follow-up - and timely signal when assumptions, sequencing, or planning need to be adjusted.
• You will ensure that open choices and bottlenecks reach the right people, take action where necessary, and guide these topics effectively towards the Steering Committee.
• You will make progress, dependencies, risks, bottlenecks, and trade-offs visible and drive towards the agreed-upon result.
• You will bring together Finance, Operations, key users, IT, a technology partner, integration partners, and external logistics and warehousing parties around shared progress.
• You will work with business owners on optimization opportunities and ensure that process choices and customizations contribute to customer value within the standard of D365 F&O.
• You will help the team stay focused on the results that matter, ensure that dependencies, risks, and open choices receive the necessary attention, and lead decision-making and escalations to the Steering Committee.
• You will critically review the existing roadmap and assumptions and, if necessary, propose a change of course.
• You will translate priorities into concrete next steps, make progress visible, and drive results.

What they are looking for.

• 10+ years of experience in leading complex ERP implementations or transitions, preferably with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O), in a role where you have also managed senior stakeholders and decision-making.
• Experience in guiding an existing ERP roadmap or implementation program through a critical execution phase, including identifying risks and proposing justified course corrections when necessary.
• Experience in structuring planning, dependencies, risks, bottlenecks, and decision-making across multiple workstreams, with clear escalation to governance when decisions fall outside your mandate.
• Experience in managing stakeholders in a complex environment with business, IT, implementation partners, and external integration parties.
• Sufficient technical and architectural affinity to recognize risks and unnecessary customizations, constructively challenge them, and, together with ERP specialists and partners, drive customer value within the standard of F&O.
• You are energized by creating overview and progress in complex programs and are a senior sparring partner for business and IT.
• You understand the correlation between business processes, data, and technology, without needing to be the technical or functional specialist yourself.
• You ask the right questions, dare to constructively challenge existing assumptions, and help people move from discussion to decision and execution.
• You drive for results, but also at a pace that the team and the organization can handle.
