• Designing automation workflows that remove manual effort and improve efficiency
• Creating AI‑assisted copilots and automation solutions using Copilot Studio
• Working directly with users to understand challenges and identify improvements
• Supporting and improving existing Power Platform solutions
• Contributing to and recommending governance, controls and best practice

Helping shape wider AI and automation capability across the firm.

What We’re Looking For

• Proactive and Pre‑emptive approach
• Highly organised and self‑motivated
• Excellent attention to detail
• Ability to thoroughly snag and test your own work before releasing for wider testing.
• Ability to see the bigger picture as well as the details.

In return you will have support to establish your career with Larking Gowen at a pace that suits you both personally and professionally. We also offer benefits which include:

• Generous Holiday Allowance
