You will be part of collaborative, close-knit team.

Reporting to the IT Platform Manager, you will be responsible for overseeing the business-as-usual (BAU) support and operations of bespoke automation platforms, primarily built on Microsoft Power Platform, SQL Server, and SharePoint, while also playing a vital role in delivering enhancements and supporting technology-driven projects.

Conduct platform risk assessments and implement remediation strategies to ensure reliability and compliance. Drive continuous improvement initiatives to increase automation, reduce manual processes, and enhance system performance.

Perform capacity planning, license forecasting, and health monitoring across platforms. Provide mentoring and technical leadership to junior team members and offshore teams. Maintain clear and up-to-date documentation on solution design, operations, and lessons learned.
