Technical Lead (Dynamics 365)

About us

Our goal is to be the leading IT services group in the HE sector and we are growing our team’s capability in experience/UX, agile development, security, cloud, service management and partnering. We are modernising our technology foundations, digitising the processes of the university to transform experience for students and staff, and partnering across the university to drive differentiation in UCL education and research.

About the role

We are looking for a Senior Technical Lead (Dynamics 365 CRM/CE) to provide expert leadership in the design and delivery of UCL’s CRM and Power Platform solutions. This is a key technical role within our CRM Platform team, helping to shape the future of how UCL manages relationships and delivers exceptional experiences for our student, applicant and partner communities.

Working as part of a cross-functional agile team, you will take ownership of designing and implementing enterprise-grade solutions using Dynamics 365 CRM/CE and the Power Platform. You will collaborate with product owners, developers, analysts and stakeholders across the university to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions that meet UCL’s business needs.

About you

You will be an experienced Dynamics 365 CRM/CE and Power Platform professional with a proven track record of delivering complex enterprise solutions. You’ll have strong technical expertise across Dataverse, C#, and JavaScript/TypeScript, and an excellent understanding of CRM integrations, Power Pages, and portal development.

You will bring deep technical knowledge of Dynamics 365 architecture, solution design and development standards, with experience in DevOps, automated testing and release management using tools such as GitHub and PAC CLI. A strong understanding of Azure and cloud technologies will also be highly valued.

You’ll be a confident communicator, able to translate complex technical concepts for non-technical audiences and build trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels.

Experience of working with Dynamics 365 Customer Service and Marketing modules is essential, as is substantial experience working with Power Platform components. A degree in computer science or a related discipline—or equivalent professional experience—is expected.
