Microsoft Copilot Specialist

XypherAI is seeking an experienced and driven Microsoft Copilot specialist to join our AI Enablement function. This is a senior, group-wide role responsible for designing, deploying, and governing Microsoft Copilot, Copilot Studio, and Power Platform capabilities across our portfolio of cybersecurity and technology businesses — including DigitalXRAID, CyberCrowd, Aristi, and IntaForensics. This role offers the opportunity to shape how AI is adopted at scale across a security-first organisation.

We are looking for a hands‑on professional who combines deep Microsoft 365 AI expertise with the judgement to operate within a robust governance framework — someone equally comfortable building agents in Copilot Studio, configuring Purview sensitivity labels, and delivering training to staff members to ensure that copilot is adopted safely and efficiently.

• Lead the design, deployment, and ongoing governance of Microsoft 365 Copilot across the group's tenants and business units.
• Build, deploy, and maintain custom agents and automations using Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and the wider Power Platform.
• Implement and maintain governance controls including Purview sensitivity labels, DLP policies, SharePoint permissions hygiene, and Entra ID conditional access tied to AI workloads.
• Partner with the BU representative network to evaluate AI ideas, define requirements, and translate business problems into secure, governed AI solutions.
• Produce clear documentation, runbooks, and adoption materials for both technical teams and non-technical end users.
• Deliver structured training and enablement sessions to drive sustained adoption, prompt‑engineering competency, and responsible use across the group.
• Maintain awareness of the Microsoft AI roadmap and provide informed recommendations to the AI governance body.
• Contribute to the wider AI Enablement strategy, including alignment with ISO 42001, internal AI policy, and the group's discovery‑led approach.
• Mentor and upskill colleagues across the group on Microsoft AI capabilities, governance principles, and prompt practices.

• Demonstrable experience deploying Microsoft 365 Copilot in a mid‑to‑large enterprise environment, including readiness assessment, permissions remediation, and adoption planning.
• Hands‑on experience building agents in Copilot Studio and automations across the Power Platform (Power Automate, PowerApps).
• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Purview, sensitivity labels, DLP, and the M365 compliance estate.
• Working knowledge of Entra ID, conditional access, and identity‑based controls as they apply to AI workloads.
• Understanding of the GDPR, UK Data Boundary, and DPIA implications of generative AI deployments.
• Excellent stakeholder management and the judgement to push back on requests that don't meet security or governance standards.
• Strong written and verbal communication, with the ability to translate technical capabilities into clear business outcomes for non‑technical audiences.
• Ability to manage multiple workstreams across business units and operate independently with minimal supervision.
• Right to work in the UK.

• Microsoft certifications such as AB‑900 and AB‑730.
• Exposure to Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, and broader Azure AI services.
• Experience working in security-sensitive or regulated environments (cybersecurity, financial services, legal, defence, healthcare).
• Familiarity with ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF, or other AI governance frameworks.
• Scripting capability (PowerShell, Python) for tenant administration and automation.
• Experience designing and delivering structured training or change management programmes for AI tooling.
• SC clearance or willingness to undergo vetting.
