The role is for a developer specialising in the Microsoft Power Platform technology stack (SharePoint Online, Power Apps, Power Automate and Power Pages). It is a client-facing role supporting fee-earning projects and programmes. Note that Power BI experience is not a requirement for this role as Mace have a dedicated BI development function, with whom this role would work closely. Any experience with Power BI is an advantage but not a requirement.

Mace is a forward-thinking construction consultancy that can offer you the opportunity to contribute to some of the nation’s largest and most exciting construction projects across a range of industries and sectors, including transport, healthcare, education, government and nuclear.

Our growing digital centre of excellence team is responsible for enabling and enhancing project delivery through the development of digital tools, processes and reports that enable data-driven decision making. As part of your role, you will interface with the Mace project team and occasionally stakeholders from other organisations, if working on a joint venture project or directly for a client.

You will be part of the digital centre of excellence community, sharing knowledge and experience with other BI & data professionals. This is an excellent opportunity to learn from and with experienced practitioners and further develop your technical skill set. You’ll be expected to stay current with Power Platform and related applications through training and development, either independently or as instructed.

You’ll be responsible for:

• Working autonomously on smaller or low complexity projects, or as part of a larger project team responsible for a particular deliverable or area of delivery.
• Contributing to the development of digital tools, processes and outputs, including project delivery sites and associated user interfaces, that support the wider project team and enable delivery of projects for our clients.
• Adhering to a structured development lifecycle that includes requirements definition, design, development and testing, user acceptance testing, deployment, handover and post-implementation support.
• Keeping your knowledge of Power Platform up to date through self-directed learning and independent exploration of new tools and functionality.
• Recommending the best tools to meet the requirements and develop effective data processes that will underpin daily and periodic reporting activity.
• Managing the end-to-end development lifecycle of Digital assets on your project, including testing, deployment and handover.
• Providing support to users and colleagues in relation to production assets.

You’ll need to have:

• A minimum of 18 months’ experience with Power Platform and SharePoint Online, coupled with a good understanding of the Office 365 suite (including a good working knowledge of Microsoft Teams).
• Expertise in customising SharePoint sites, pages, lists, libraries, documents and permissions management.
• Knowledge of PowerShell, with a focus on SharePoint PnP.
• Demonstrated experience in designing and developing custom applications using Power Apps.
• A solid understanding of actions and connectors for process automation in Power Automate.
• Knowledge of tools like JSON, JavaScript or Plum sail is a plus but not required.

You’ll also have:

• The ability to work collaboratively as part of a team.
• A willingness to share knowledge and support the development of others.
• The confidence to ask questions, make suggestions and challenge the status quo.
• Excellent written and oral communication skills (in English) and presentational skills.
• A commitment to working inclusively.
• An aptitude for problem-solving.
• Good interpersonal skills.
• Working in a client-facing development role requires a high degree of interaction with colleagues, both from technical and non-technical backgrounds, so the ability to work well with others and maintain open channels of communication is essential.
