You will be a trusted influencer with the credibility to engage leadership teams and the practical skills to design, build and deliver digital solutions that make a real difference. You’ll work across all departments to simplify processes, improve system use and drive better ways of working through Microsoft 365 and the Power Platform.

This role is central to modernising how the business operates and ensuring that digital-first thinking becomes part of everyday life.

• Influence teams at all levels to adopt new ways of working and build digital-first thinking into the company’s culture
• Reduce manual processes, integrate core systems and improve reporting capabilities
• Ensure solutions meet governance and security requirements including ISO 27001, GDPR and Microsoft Entra SSO

Key Responsibilities

Leadership & Influence

• Act as the trusted digital lead for the group
• Build strong working relationships with leadership and site teams

• Support system integration across platforms like Dynamics 365, Procore, BrightHR, HubSpot and Freshdesk
• Build intuitive dashboards and reporting tools that make data easier to use
• Recommend smart, practical solutions that can scale with the business

Change Management & Adoption

• Lead structured change programmes to support digital adoption
• Deliver tailored, simple training to help people use new tools with confidence
• Work closely with users to gather feedback and make practical improvements

Governance & Compliance

• Ensure solutions meet security, SSO and compliance standards
• Track system usage, adoption rates and process improvements to show real value

What You’ll Need

• Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Power Platform (Power Automate, Power Apps, Power BI)
• Good understanding of systems architecture, platform integration and automation
• Ability to engage and influence at all levels of a business, including non-technical users
• Experience working in operationally complex environments such as construction, engineering or facilities management is preferred
• Familiarity with governance and compliance standards like ISO 27001 and GDPR
• Problem-solving mindset and excellent communication skills
• Comfortable working both independently and as part of a team
