at Ludiaconsulting

🏢 About Ludiaconsulting

Ludiaconsulting is a specialized consulting firm focused exclusively on Microsoft Dynamics 365 implementations, offering a collaborative culture and deep expertise in finance and supply chain. Their remote-first approach allows for flexible work while working on impactful projects with diverse clients. Consultants appreciate the hands-on leadership and opportunities for professional growth.

About This Role

As a Sr. Finance Functional Consultant, you will lead the design and configuration of D365 FSC to streamline clients' financial operations. Your work directly improves how businesses manage AP, AR, GL, and project accounting, ensuring seamless digital transformation. This role is pivotal in bridging client requirements with technical solutions, driving measurable efficiency gains.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day starts with a virtual design session with a client to review financial requirements, followed by configuring D365 FSC modules in a sandbox environment. You'll document functional specs in Azure DevOps, collaborate with developers on customizations, and wrap up with testing or a status call with the project manager. The day is a mix of client interaction, hands-on configuration, and problem-solving.

🎯 Who Ludiaconsulting Is Looking For

  • A seasoned D365 F&O/FSC consultant with 5+ years of experience and at least 3 full end-to-end ERP implementations under your belt.
  • Deep expertise in financial management processes (AP, AR, GL, fixed assets, financial reporting) and the Project Management & Accounting module.
  • Proficient in configuring and customizing D365 FSC, with strong skills in Azure DevOps and Visio for documentation and process mapping.
  • A natural leader who excels in client-facing sessions, translating complex business needs into functional designs and managing stakeholder expectations.

📝 Tips for Applying to Ludiaconsulting

1

Tailor your resume to highlight specific D365 FSC financial module configurations, not just general ERP experience. Use metrics like 'Led 3 full-cycle implementations for $50M+ revenue clients'.

2

In your cover letter, mention a specific challenge you solved with D365 FSC finance modules (e.g., customizing fixed asset depreciation rules).

3

Showcase your Azure DevOps proficiency by mentioning how you used it for requirement tracking, test case management, or sprint planning in past projects.

4

Include a portfolio or case study of one implementation, detailing the client's pain points, your configuration approach, and the business outcomes achieved.

5

Since the role is remote, emphasize your experience with virtual collaboration tools and self-management in a remote consulting environment.

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Your proven track record of leading 3+ full end-to-end D365 F&O/FSC implementations, with specific examples of financial module configurations.', "Deep knowledge of financial management processes and how you've improved AP/AR/GL workflows for clients.", 'Experience with Project Management & Accounting module, including project budgeting, billing, and revenue recognition.', 'Your ability to identify functional gaps and coordinate with technical teams for custom developments, using Azure DevOps for traceability.']

🔍 Research Before Applying

To stand out, make sure you've researched:

  • Explore Ludiaconsulting's website to understand their consulting philosophy, client industries, and any case studies or blog posts about D365 implementations.
  • Look up their leadership team on LinkedIn to understand their background and the company culture (e.g., focus on work-life balance, innovation).
  • Check for recent news or certifications (e.g., Microsoft Gold Partner status) that demonstrate their expertise and market position.
  • Review Glassdoor or Indeed reviews from current/former employees to get insights into the remote work environment and project types.

💬 Prepare for These Interview Topics

Based on this role, you may be asked about:

1 Walk us through a full-cycle D365 FSC implementation you led. What were the key challenges in financial management, and how did you configure the system to address them?
2 How would you handle a client requirement that conflicts with standard D365 FSC functionality? Describe your process for gap analysis and solution design.
3 Explain your experience with the Project Management & Accounting module. How do you configure project categories, funding sources, and billing rules?
4 How do you use Azure DevOps to manage functional requirements and coordinate with technical teams during a project?
5 Describe a time you had to manage a difficult stakeholder during a design session. How did you ensure alignment and project momentum?

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't emphasize generic ERP skills (e.g., SAP or Oracle) without tying them directly to D365 FSC finance modules.
  • Avoid being vague about your role in implementations – clearly state that you led design sessions and configured modules, not just participated.
  • Don't neglect to mention Azure DevOps; many candidates overlook this requirement, so showing proficiency gives you an edge.
