The role will focus heavily on Microsoft 365, Copilot adoption, enablement and extensibility, helping customers move beyond traditional product implementations towards transformation programmes focused on measurable business outcomes and value.
A significant part of the role will involve working with external delivery partners. The Solution Architect will retain architectural oversight and accountability, ensuring partner-delivered solutions meet the required technical, governance and quality standards.

- Support the creation of low-code/no-code agents and reusable AI capabilities
- Define how Copilot, agents and wider Microsoft components can be combined into customer-specific solutions
- Provide architectural governance and assurance across projects delivered by third-party partners
- Review partner designs and deliverables, challenging technical decisions where appropriate and ensuring architectural standards are maintained
- Retain technical accountability while leveraging partners for elements of project delivery
- Lead or support architecture and solution-design activities directly where required
- Advise customers on the wider M365 ecosystem, workloads, security, governance and architecture
- Support Modern Workplace transformation across SharePoint, Exchange and wider Microsoft 365 services
- Provide architectural input into tenant-to-tenant migrations and Microsoft cloud transformation programmes
- Work closely with customers to understand business processes and translate requirements into technology-enabled outcomes
- Support rapidly mobilised Copilot programmes, which can move from opportunity to delivery within short timescales
