• Configure access controls and library permission structures appropriate for a regulated drug development environment
• Provide SharePoint site administration support — including troubleshooting and user access management — on an as-needed basis throughout the engagement
• Lead knowledge transfer and handoff to internal stakeholders upon project completion
• Optionally: assess and recommend opportunities to incorporate Microsoft 365 Copilot or SharePoint AI agent features

• Experience in clinical or drug development operational settings strongly preferred

• Must be based in the United States
