Ready to lead meaningful business transformation and help clients get more value from technology?

Join Fusion5 as a Senior Functional Consultant and play a key role in shaping and delivering Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement solutions that make a real difference for our clients. You’ll lead from the front across the full implementation lifecycle, connecting business strategy, process improvement, and technology to deliver practical outcomes that stand up in the real world.

We have a very successful track record in delivering Microsoft solutions out of our award-winning practice, and we’ve been a member of the Microsoft Inner Circle since 2017. As part of the Inner Circle we’re called upon to contribute to Microsoft’s own business applications strategy and the aspects that impact partners like us.

About you

You’re a seasoned functional consultant who can move comfortably between executive-level conversations, detailed process analysis, and hands‑on solution delivery. You build trust quickly, take ownership when challenges arise, and bring people together around clear, practical decisions.

Key Responsibilities

In this role, you’ll lead client engagements with confidence, structure, and commercial awareness. You’ll guide stakeholders through discovery, design, delivery, and adoption while helping teams stay focused on value, accountability, and successful outcomes.

• Lead discovery and design workshops that uncover business needs, challenge assumptions, and define clear functional outcomes.
• Translate complex requirements into well‑structured Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement and Power Platform solutions.
• Own functional workstreams across configuration, testing, training, user adoption, and go‑live readiness.
• Provide trusted advice on platform capability, process improvement, and pragmatic solution options.
• Manage scope, risks, and decisions with commercial awareness and a focus on protecting project outcomes.
• Mentor consultants, share knowledge, and help lift the capability and confidence of the wider team.

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for someone who brings senior consulting judgement, strong functional depth, and the confidence to own outcomes—not just tasks. You’ll be commercially minded, curious about smarter ways of working, and motivated by helping clients turn complex challenges into better ways of operating.

• 5+ years’ experience in functional consulting, CRM, enterprise applications, or digital transformation.
• Strong Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement experience, with the ability to design, configure, and advise across core business processes.
• Confidence facilitating senior stakeholder workshops and turning ambiguity into clear solution direction.
• Commercial awareness, including scope management, value alignment, and risk-based decision making.
• An AI transformation mindset, with curiosity about how automation, Copilot, and modern Microsoft technologies can reshape processes, improve adoption, and unlock better client outcomes.
• Tertiary qualifications and Microsoft certifications are valued, but practical delivery experience and ownership matter most.

What’s in it for you?

"Go Beyond" isn't a marketing line at Fusion5, it's the standard we hold ourselves to. It reflects how we bring together solutions, services, and capability to help clients realise their business vision, with AI as a strategic lever for meaningful transformation.

At Fusion5, you’ll have the autonomy to influence solution direction, the backing of an established trans‑Tasman organisation, and the opportunity to work alongside people who care deeply about outcomes, accountability, and doing the right thing for clients. We’re proud to be a diverse, inclusive, and forward‑thinking employer, and we’re committed to creating a workplace where our people feel engaged, challenged, supported, and successful.
