We are seeking an experienced Power Platform Lead Engineer to help shape and develop the Power Platform Hub.
This is a senior engineering role for someone who combines hands-on Power Platform experience with accurate judgement, ownership and the ability to turn unclear demand into practical, deliverable outcomes.
We are happy to consider flexible working approaches to help you perform at your best.
At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.
For this job, you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part-time, you'll spend 40% of your working time, based at either our Swindon, London, Northampton or Bournemouth office. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. You can also find out more about our approach to hybrid working here.
Whilst these locations are where we are primarily looking to fill the role, if you’re an internal applicant based in a different location, we would welcome your application and if successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this could work for this specific role. You can also find out more about our approach to hybrid working here.
Nationwide is committed to the redeployment of our employees impacted by change, as such applications for redeployment candidates will be prioritised in this recruitment process.

Responsibilities
What you’ll be doing
You will play a key role in the ongoing development of the Hub, working with engineers and stakeholders across the society to support the effective use of Power Platform, Microsoft 365 and Copilot.
Working across a varied portfolio of initiatives, you will provide technical leadership and help ensure solutions are practical, sustainable and aligned with agreed standards. You will be comfortable operating in ambiguous situations, challenging assumptions constructively and balancing immediate needs with longer-term outcomes.
Success in this role will depend on your ability to influence others, apply sound engineering judgement and support the growth of capability across teams. You will help create an environment where knowledge is shared, good practices are encouraged and teams are empowered to deliver effectively.
About you
As a minimum requirement, you’ll have:
Hands-on experience working with Power Platform technologies in an enterprise environment
Experience delivering and supporting business solutions using low-code technologies
Practical understanding of platform governance, including access control, DLP, licencing, capacity and usage
Working knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID as it relates to Power Platform, including security groups, environment access and app permissions
Excellent technical judgement, communication and stakeholder management skills, with a track record of improving ways of working and building capability in others
Experience with Copilot Studio, AI-enabled automation or agent-based use cases
Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:
Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers’ shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind
Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think – we’re honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand
Push for better - We don’t settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development
Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes
You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.

Banking – but fairer, more rewarding, and for the good of society
We forge our own path at Nationwide.
As a mutual, we’re owned by our members - those customers who bank, save or have a mortgage with us. We challenge the financial sector status quo. We don’t see customers as the engine of our own profit. We share our profits with them and put their needs first. Always there when they need us. Supporting them and their lives.
If you’re inspired by fairer finances, passionate about making a meaningful impact, and truly care about our customers, you’re one of us.
At Nationwide, you are challenged to grow and rewarded for doing so. Valued. Recognised. Inspired to be your best. As a community, we want our working lives to count. As a team, we celebrate what we achieve. As a standard-setter, we work for the good of customers, communities, and broader society.
We are purpose-driven. Uncompromisingly customer. Unstoppably Nationwide.
