We have an exciting opportunity for a Power Platform Functional Consultant to join our growing Power Platform specialism. The Power Platform Functional Consultant is responsible for delivering elegant solutions built upon the Microsoft 365 Power Platform and extended into the wider M365 and enterprise landscape. You will engage across the full project lifecycle—from design and implementation through to operational handover and ongoing optimisation.

Responsibilities

• Design and deliver Microsoft 365 and Power Platform solutions (including Power Apps, Power Automate, Copilot Studio, Power BI, Power Pages, Dataverse, SharePoint, and Teams), ensuring scalable, supportable outcomes.
• Define and implement environment strategy, ALM, governance, and platform controls, including DLP policies, enterprise guardrails, and lifecycle management.
• Provide expert guidance on licensing models, capacity planning, and cost optimisation (e.g. premium connectors, AI Builder credits, Dataverse storage).
• Take accountability for delivery commitments, including tasks, estimates, timelines, and the quality of outcomes.
• Deliver clear client communication and high‑quality outputs, including structured handover to clients and FSP’s Managed Services team.
• Promote best practices across security, compliance, solution design, platform governance, and continuous improvement through knowledge sharing.

About you

• Strong experience across core Microsoft 365 and Power Platform components, delivering end‑to‑end solutions independently and as part of a team.
• Proven delivery of Power Platform solutions, including AI‑driven and agent‑based experiences using Copilot Studio and AI Builder.

• Competency in advanced Power Platform and ALM methodologies, including Power FX, environment management, custom connectors, solution management, DLP policies, and the Power Platform Admin Centre.
• Strong grasp of Power Platform licensing models (per‑app, per‑user, capacity‑based, and AI consumption), with experience using PowerShell or CLI tools for configuration and administration.
• Strong ownership of deliverables with a commitment to excellent client experience, supported by Agile delivery practices and user‑centric UX/UI principles.
• Knowledge and experience of Dynamics 365 would be advantageous.
