The GP Migration Wave: Why D365 Hiring Just Went Into Overdrive
With Dynamics GP heading toward end of support, thousands of organisations are migrating — and the hiring surge for BC and F&O talent is real.
Dynamics GP's wind-down has created one of the largest forced-migration waves the Microsoft ERP ecosystem has seen. Tens of thousands of GP customers need a path forward, and most of them are landing on Business Central. The hiring knock-on is significant.
Who's in demand
- BC functional consultants who can run finance migrations end to end.
- Data migration specialists comfortable mapping legacy GP structures into Dataverse/BC.
- Consultants who understand both the GP world and the BC target — a rare and well-paid combination.
- Project managers who've delivered ERP cutovers under a hard deadline.
If you have any GP background at all, 2026 is the year to make it visible on your profile. The migration window is finite, and partners are paying a premium for people who can de-risk it. For consultants newer to the ecosystem, BC migration delivery is one of the fastest routes to building credible, in-demand experience right now.
