Power Platform Architect

Love designing technology solutions but still want to get involved in the technical detail? Great, Peaple Talent have the role for you! We're recruiting for a Microsoft 365 Architect to join a leading international professional services firm that's investing heavily in its technology and architecture function.

Location: Bristol (Hybrid)

Salary: £60,000-£80,000

Type: Permanent

The role:

This isn't a role where you'll simply produce architecture documents and hand everything over to engineering teams. You'll take ownership of the Microsoft 365 architecture, helping shape the technology roadmap whilst remaining close enough to the technical detail to guide implementation, challenge designs and ensure solutions work in practice.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead architecture across SharePoint Online, Teams, OneDrive and Power Platform.
• Develop architectural roadmaps, solution designs and technical standards.
• Define security, compliance and governance across the M365 estate.
• Support the adoption of Microsoft Copilot, AI and automation.
• Work closely with engineering teams and senior stakeholders to turn architectural decisions into successful solutions.

One of the real attractions of this opportunity is the level of ownership you'll have. With significant investment in technology and a growing architecture function, you'll have the chance to influence how Microsoft 365 is used across the business, rather than simply maintaining what's already there.

Your key skills required:

• Proven experience as an M365, Solution or Platform Architect.
• Strong technical expertise across SharePoint Online, Teams and Power Platform.
• Experience designing enterprise architecture, roadmaps and governance frameworks.
• Good understanding of Microsoft 365 security, identity and compliance.
• Confident working with technical teams and senior stakeholders.
• Exposure to Purview, Copilot, Entra ID or Azure integrations would be advantageous.

Salary and benefits:

This role offers a salary of £60,000–£80,000 per annum, alongside hybrid working from Bristol and the opportunity to join a business investing significantly in its technology capabilities.

If you're an experienced Microsoft 365 Architect looking for greater ownership, technical variety and the opportunity to influence long-term technology decisions, we'd love to have a chat.
