We're looking for a passionate and experienced Power Platform Lead Engineer to help shape and evolve the Remediation CoE Power Platform solutions. This is a senior role for someone who thrives on solving complex challenges, brings a forward-thinking mindset, and can turn business needs into practical, scalable solutions. You'll lead the development of innovative applications, automation, and digital capabilities that drive efficiency and deliver real value to operational and project teams.
At Nationwide we aim to get things right first time, but when something does go wrong, we pride ourselves in putting it right for our customers quickly and efficiently. As our name suggests, the Remediation Centre of Excellence is a specialised cross community capability who rapidly assimilate knowledge and build an understanding of emerging issues and incidents through analysis of data and processes to conduct the required remediation for impacted customers.
We are happy to consider flexible working approaches to help you perform at your best.
This is a 12 month secondment opportunity.
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 or Northampton 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.
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.
If you’re a colleague on long-term absence (for example, on parental leave) or a temporary worker, please use your personal email address to submit an application.
