About the job

We have current internal openings for a Business Applications Solution Architect at Practitioner band to further company growth and to serve our customers in a structured way. This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced senior consultant to further themselves on an architect career path and take responsibility for owning solutions across one or more of our customers. As part of our restructuring, you won’t be thrown in at the deep-end, rather you will work as part of a virtual team of architects, sharing ideas and breaking down internal walls.

You will have functional and technical knowledge of the Power Platform (and the wider Microsoft technology stack) with excellent client engagement and consulting skills. You will have worked before in a customer-facing role and will quickly adapt to and understand unfamiliar industry sectors and business processes.

Fundamentally, this role involves being a solution owner for multiple customer projects. Some projects may be in different stages of the software development lifecycle, and some may be agile in nature. You will have experience in both functional and technical disciplines. You will have an interest in getting involved in designing solutions from scratch, whether that is directly involved with the customer during delivery, or getting involved early in the pre-sales process. You will be opinionated and thoughtful with the ability to be your customer’s trusted advisor whilst understanding commercial considerations that impact Codec’s ability to deliver projects to time and budget.
