This is an opportunity to work with one of the UK's leading MBSD partners, Inner Circle members, and ISV creators for retail, furniture, trade, and omnichannel.

Key Responsibilities
Pre-Sales & Sales Enablement

• Support the sales team throughout the full sales cycle, from qualification to close.
• Prepare and deliver tailored, high-quality demonstrations of Business Central, our vertical IP, and complementary technologies.
• Create demo scripts, customer scenarios, and proof-of-concepts aligned to the customer's industry and challenges.
• Respond to RFPs/RFIs with clear, compelling, scalable solution narratives.
• Work with Account Managers and Solution Architects on solution shaping, scope, and implementation estimates.

• Warehousing & Logistics

Technical & Product Knowledge

• Strong understanding of Business Central configuration, capabilities, and limitations.
• Ability to interpret extensions, integrations, and ISV add-ons (e.g., LS Retail, Tasklet, Continia, Cosmos).
• High-level knowledge of AL extensions and the modern BC app model (you do NOT need to code, simply understand the concepts).
• Understanding of SaaS architecture, environments, updates, ALM, and Microsoft's roadmap.
• Ability to translate customer technical needs into solution options and discuss them with Solution Architects.

Demo Excellence

• Build, maintain, and enhance demo environments using best practice data, scripts, and vertical scenarios.

• Ability to challenge customer thinking and position modern SaaS best practice.
• Work closely with the ISV/Product team to showcase vertical IP and future roadmap.

Collaboration & Communication

• Work hand-in-hand with Sales, Solution Architecture, Delivery, ISV/Product, Support, and Account Management.

  experience in a similar Pre-Sales, Consultant, or Functional role in Business Central or NAV.
• Strong customer-facing and presentation skills.
• Excellent understanding of SaaS-based ERP and Microsoft ecosystem.
