Our client is a fast-growing Microsoft cloud specialist, primarily working closely with major NHS sector customers on complex M365 migrations and ongoing tenant management. They’ve built their own in-house tool that surfaces deep insight from customer M365 tenants, covering user and licence data, OneDrive and SharePoint metrics, sharing complexity, permissions risk, and security posture, and they need an experienced Engineer to help turn those findings into action for customers.

Strong preference is you have NHS exposure.
