I was generally involved in the installation and data import / systems integration, training for the end users and administrators then assisted the customer on site on the day they went live.

      Lead BA (Dynamics CRM Consultant)

      At Anthony Nolan, I primarily provided CRM expertise and leadership. I was heavily involved in the planning of a project that had already been running for 3 years and needed a large amount of redesign to make it viable. Working closely with the Architect, I took the customer facing role, re-gathered requirement where necessary, built the prototype using out of the box CRM customisation, customised the live system, handled all UAT sessions and delivered all the user training for 30 people. I engaged with the project team, the project manager and people at board level. Voir moins
