D365 Solution Architect
London | Hybrid
If you’re a D365 architect who enjoys solving real business problems rather than just delivering tickets, this is worth a look.
My client has built a reputation for taking on complex, high-value transformation work where architecture actually matters. You’re not being brought in to maintain systems or sit on the sidelines. You’ll be expected to shape solutions, challenge thinking, and play a visible role in delivery.
What tends to appeal to people already in this space:
You’ll own the architecture
Not just review it. You’ll define it, defend it, and see it through.
Serious, grown-up work
Large-scale programmes where decisions have impact across the business, not isolated feature work.
Access to strong engineers and delivery teams
You’re not firefighting poor builds. You’re working with capable teams who can execute.
Proper stakeholder exposure
You’ll be in the room with decision-makers, running workshops and shaping direction.
Variety without chaos
Different clients and challenges, but within a structured, well-run environment.
The Role
You’ll lead the design and delivery of Dynamics 365 and Power Platform solutions, typically as part of wider transformation programmes.
This includes:
Owning end-to-end solution design
Running workshops and whiteboarding sessions
Translating business needs into practical architecture
Setting design standards, guardrails and direction
Working closely with engineering teams to guide delivery
This is a hands-on architecture role with real accountability.
What You Must Have (Non-Negotiable)
This role is specific. If the below isn’t clearly in your background, it won’t be the right fit.
Dynamics 365 (essential)
Strong, recent experience with Dynamics 365
Involvement in solution design, not just configuration or support
Power Platform (essential)
Hands-on experience with Power Apps
Ideally some exposure to Power Automate
Architecture ownership
Experience as a Solution Architect or Lead
Ownership of:
High Level Design
Low Level Design
Evidence of making and owning technical decisions
Stakeholder engagement
Comfortable working directly with stakeholders
Experience running workshops and shaping solutions
Azure exposure
Experience integrating D365 and Power Platform with Azure
Important:
If your experience does not include both D365 and Power Apps at an architectural level, this role will not be suitable.
The Kind of Background That Works Well
People who succeed here typically:
Have delivered D365 or CRM transformation programmes
Are comfortable taking ownership and being visible with clients
Combine technical depth with clear communication
That experience might come from consulting, Microsoft partners, or large enterprise environments.
Practical Details
Hybrid working across London, client site and home
Security clearance required, so you’ll need:
5 years continuous UK residency
British citizenship or settled status
Limited travel outside the UK during that time
Final Thought
This role suits someone who wants to do proper architecture work in the Microsoft ecosystem, not just operate around the edges of it.
If that sounds like you, it’s worth sending your CV
