D365 Finance & Operations Technical Architect (Associate Director)
UK Wide / Hybrid / £90,000–£120,000 DOE
This role isn't for a Technical Lead who wants a bigger title. It's for someone who's already operating as a trusted advisor across multiple clients, who thinks beyond the current project, and who wants a genuine hand in building a practice, not just delivering inside one.
You'll join a Big 4 firm's D365 F&O practice at a point where architecture leadership, capability building and commercial input all matter as much as technical depth. If you've been the person quietly setting standards, building reusable assets, and shaping how a team delivers, not just what it delivers, this is where that gets recognised and expanded, backed by the platform, client base and genuinely inclusive culture of a global consultancy.
What you'll actually be doing
- Owning enterprise architecture across multiple client engagements, not one long-running programme
- Shaping delivery methodology, governance and reusable frameworks that raise the bar practice-wide
- Advising clients at a strategic level, connecting technology decisions directly to business and transformation outcomes
- Bringing Azure, Power Platform, Dual Write, Fabric, Synapse and AI into the architecture conversation as standard, not as an add-on
- Contributing to business growth: supporting sales pursuits, spotting market opportunities, and building client relationships beyond the current statement of work
- Mentoring architects and technical leads, and helping build the practice's capability as it scales
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What sets the right candidate apart
- Proven experience as a consultant or implementation partner, not solely an end-client resource
- A track record across multiple clients or industries, not one long engagement
- Evidence you've built something for the practice, standards, accelerators, governance models, capability, not just delivered a project
- Comfort operating at executive level, translating architecture into business language
- Deep D365 F&O technical grounding (X++,.NET, integrations, extensions) as the baseline, not the whole story
Nice to have:
- MB-500/MB-700, and experience presenting architecture decisions to boards or senior leadership, not just project sponsors.

What's in it for you
- A genuine route to Director and beyond, with promotion and pay reviewed annually against clear, transparent criteria
- Access to flagship clients and transformation programmes across one of the world's largest professional services networks, exactly the multi-client exposure this role is looking for
- A flexible benefits package you can shape around your life, including the option to buy extra annual leave
- Structured leadership development alongside your delivery work, not instead of it
- Hybrid and flexible working built in, not treated as an exception
- A workplace that backs inclusion in practice, not just policy, with active networks and support for people from all backgrounds to progress into senior roles
If your experience is genuinely at this level, you'll recognise yourself in this straight away. If you're a strong technical lead who hasn't yet had the platform to operate at practice level, we'd still love to hear from you, just for a different conversation.
