About The Role…
We are seeking a Business Systems Analyst to support and improve the way Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is used across a growing engineering services group.
Ipsum is an acquisitive business, meaning we frequently integrate entities with different systems, processes, and workflows. Whilst some differences may be valid, others may stem from historic local practices rather than universally optimal approaches. This role involves:
- Understanding these differences
- Defining the right future-state processes
- Ensuring Business Central changes are thoroughly assessed before entering development
Working closely with the Functional Lead, the Development team, and various business stakeholders, you will act as the key liaison between operational and technical teams. Your responsibilities include:
- Ensuring requests meet clear understanding, are properly governed, and align with group-wide processes where feasible
- Contributing to process consistency, change governance, user adoption, and delivery quality across multiple entities
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Translate business needs into:
- Clear, structured functional specifications
- Build-ready documentation
- Define:
- Expected outcomes
- Acceptance criteria
- Data impacts
- Reporting impacts
- Access requirements
- Control considerations
- Sense-check Business Central’s existing functionality, evaluating whether new development is required
- Manage and maintain the Business Central enhancement backlog:

- Track requests through their full lifecycle from submission to release and adoption
- Coordinate testing activities and support user acceptance testing
- Conduct office visits to observe how processes operate in practice
- Support rollouts of new or revised Business Central functionality:
