  • Continually question and optimize governance processes to ensure deployed services meet quality and security benchmarks.
  • Ensure the UK business unit's adoption of Dynamics and Power Platform remains up to date and 'in-support' by defining and executing mid/long-term upgrade plans as needed.
  • Contribute to the wider Hiscox IT community by offering direction and expertise.
  • Drive decision-making across different teams and disciplines, seeking informed decisions that lead to value-add, quality, and appropriate outcomes.
  • Liaise closely with and provide technical assistance to the SRE/Application Support teams, including well-documented handover and knowledge transfer.
  • Act as an SME within the wider IT team, advising on strategy and defining the right approach for a range of projects.

Requirements

  • In-depth knowledge of Microsoft Azure Cloud.
  • Deep expertise in the capabilities, strategic use, and roll-out of Microsoft Power Platform, Data Platform, D365, and the infrastructure to support it.
  • Experience customizing D365 to maximize user efficiency and drive user adoption.
  • Lower-level expertise in the definition, design, and development of PowerApps, PowerBI, Power Automate, and Power Pages.
  • Expertise in Assistive Technology (AI co-pilots, etc.).
  • Ability to coach and influence engineers.
  • Ability to monitor market trends and best practices relating to Power Platform, AI, and cloud services.
