Banyule City Council is embarking on a significant organisation-wide transformation that will reshape how it delivers services to the community.
Over the next four years, they're redesigning their operating model, modernising core business systems, implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365, Azure and Power Platform, and embedding new ways of working across the organisation.
To support this journey, they're seeking a
Principal Functional Consultant
to provide senior functional leadership across their Business Transformation Program.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Portfolio Manager, you'll provide high-level functional advice and guide enterprise solution design across the organisation, leading complex requirements, functional design, solution alignment and implementation readiness across Microsoft Dynamics 365, Azure, Power Platform and related enterprise platforms.
Working closely with executive sponsors, senior leaders, architects and implementation partners, you'll provide authoritative functional advice, influence strategic decisions, manage significant delivery risk and build internal capability to ensure the successful adoption and sustainability of recent enterprise solutions.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys shaping enterprise-wide outcomes rather than simply executing to a brief and wants to leave a lasting legacy within a growing Transformation function.
This is a senior position within a four-year transformation program, based in Melbourne's Northern suburbs (hybrid working — minimum 3 days onsite).

Lead cross-functional design workshops, executive briefings and decision-making forums involving senior stakeholders, architects and vendors

Influence and negotiate with internal and external stakeholders to resolve complex design issues and maintain alignment between business needs and strategic outcomes
Lead implementation readiness, testing strategy, data migration planning and business adoption activities for major enterprise solutions
Establish repeatable functional delivery practices, documentation standards and knowledge transfer mechanisms across the Transformation function
About You

You'll bring:
Extensive senior experience delivering enterprise transformation programs, ideally involving whole-of-organisation business systems and complex implementation environments
Deep specialist knowledge of Microsoft Dynamics 365, Azure, Power Platform and the broader Microsoft enterprise ecosystem
Advanced capability in requirements strategy, workshop facilitation, business process redesign and functional architecture
Strong understanding of enterprise architecture, data governance, cyber security and public sector compliance obligations

Why Join Banyule City Council?
This is an opportunity to provide the functional leadership that will shape a major four-year transformation program, working across Microsoft Dynamics 365, Azure and Power Platform at enterprise scale.
You'll join a collaborative team with strong executive sponsorship, working alongside experienced transformation leaders on a highly visible strategic program — with real scope to influence how enterprise solutions are designed and delivered across the organisation.
