This role sits within the Power Platform capability and works closely with enterprise architecture, infrastructure, business analysts, development and data teams. You’ll play a key part in shaping how Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365 are used across the NMC, contributing to both large transformation programmes and ongoing continuous improvement initiatives. Our team values collaboration, quality and learning, and we take pride in designing solutions that deliver real business value while aligning with the NMC’s strategic priorities.

In this role, you’ll bridge business needs with technical solutions, translating complex requirements into clear, high-quality functional designs on the Microsoft Power Platform. You’ll lead on requirements gathering, working directly with stakeholders to understand business processes, identify opportunities for improvement and shape solutions that make a tangible difference to how teams work.

You’ll design and configure solutions using Power Apps (Model-driven and Canvas), Power Automate, Power Pages and Dataverse, working closely with solution and technical architects and developers throughout the delivery lifecycle. From initial concept through to testing, user acceptance and go-live, you’ll provide functional expertise and guidance to ensure solutions are effective, scalable and fit for purpose.

A key part of your impact will be setting standards for functional design, championing best practice and quality across both agile and waterfall delivery. Through your work, you’ll help ensure that Power Platform solutions are consistent, reusable and aligned with enterprise architecture and governance.

You’ll bring strong experience with Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365, along with the ability to analyse business processes and turn them into well-designed, user-focused solutions. You’re comfortable working across functional and technical boundaries and can communicate confidently with both business stakeholders and delivery teams.

You’ll have a proactive, improvement-focused mindset, always looking for ways to simplify, streamline and enhance how solutions are designed and delivered. You’re organised, adaptable and able to navigate ambiguity, balancing competing views while keeping outcomes and quality firmly in focus.

Above all, you’ll bring a collaborative approach and a commitment to learning and sharing knowledge, helping to strengthen capability across the organisation while contributing to solutions that support the NMC’s purpose and values.
