مدير وظيفي لنظام Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations

Job Purpose :

Starlinks is looking for a D365 F&O Functional Manager to lead our D365 Finance & Operations consulting team and take ownership of the ongoing evolution of our D365 architecture. This role sits at the intersection of Finance and Technology: you will act as the primary bridge between the Finance function and both internal and outsourced technology resources, ensuring that business requirements are translated into sound functional design and that delivered solutions align with our long-term architecture roadmap. Alongside leading and mentoring the team, you will remain hands-on, configuring, testing, and delivering functional enhancements yourself where needed. This role reports directly to the Executive Director - Technology and is based on site in Khobar, Saudi Arabia.

Main Job Responsibilities:

Team Leadership: Lead and manage the D365 F&O delivery team, overseeing workload distribution, quality of delivery, mentoring, and professional development.

Architecture Ownership: Own and continue to develop the functional and technical architecture of the D365 F&O platform in line with business growth and evolving Finance requirements.

Finance-to-Technology Bridge: Serve as the primary liaison between the Finance department and internal and outsourced technology resources, gathering requirements, validating solution designs, and ensuring delivered work meets business and compliance needs.

Hands-On Delivery: Personally configure and deliver basic-to-moderate functional enhancements within D365 F&O (e.g., workflows, security roles, financial dimensions, approval rules, and module configurations) rather than relying solely on the team or outsourced resources.

Budget Implementation: Lead the implementation and ongoing management of budgeting and budget control functionality within D365 F&O, ensuring alignment with organizational financial planning and approval processes.

Process Improvement: Partner with Finance stakeholders to identify process improvement opportunities and translate them into D365 F&O functional requirements and roadmap items.

Governance & Quality Assurance: Review and validate functional specifications, test plans, and change requests submitted by outsourced resources before implementation.

Project & Release Management: Coordinate testing, UAT, and go-live activities for enhancements and projects across Finance and Operations modules.

Reporting: Provide the Executive Director - Technology with regular updates on team performance, project status, architecture direction, and risks related to the D365 F&O environment.
