Summary

We are seeking a Technical Consultant to work in our Partner Enablement team, to support our partners and customers, helping to scope and implement document management projects for our Dynamics ISV and other ERP solutions.

In this position, you will work with various stakeholders such as our customers, internal resources and importantly - partners. You will need to help customers and partners implement our software efficiently while maintaining high standards of quality. You will also be training customers and partners in our software, helping them with advanced configurations and proactively working to improve the competency and engagement of our partners.

You will undertake technical tasks such as software installation, configuration, report building and interfacing with other systems. You will be responsible for maintaining tasks within resource budgets, managing deliverables to the schedule and keeping accurate records. You will also be engaging proactively with partners, building relationships within their project teams and (alongside their Formpipe Account Manager) supporting their growth as a Formpipe Partner.

The ideal candidate will have some direct experience in a technical support or technical consultant role within a Dynamics implementation company (D365FO or D365CE is ideal) or on a specific ISV product.

It is a specific ISV consultant role where you will leverage any knowledge and experience with the inner workings of D365FO or D365CE to expand your learning and your career as a Formpipe Technical Consultant in the Partner Enablement Team.

This role will provide the opportunity to learn new skills as both a technical consultant and as part of an innovative and market-leading software vendor. You will have responsibility for helping our partners to achieve success with their customer projects and you will have the chance to increase your subject matter expertise in a variety of ways.

You will need to be confident and comfortable to adopt the responsibilities of a role that requires technical ability with our software, and as a proactive partner enablement team member. Full training in our software will be provided. As a member of the Partner Enablement Team, you will need to be passionate about customer service, demonstrate excellent communication, be willing to work across multiple workstreams and thrive in a supportive team environment.

As we expand globally, supporting partners and our products, this is a fantastic opportunity to apply your skills, learn new ones and be a part of a unique team.
