You will work with our delivery lead and the client's own technology team.

Tasks

  • Run access reviews across Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Teams and Entra ID, and record the results.

  • Write PowerShell and Microsoft Graph scripts that pull permissions and repeat the checks each quarter.

  • Strong hands on experience of Microsoft Entra ID, including groups, guest access and conditional access.
  • Deep knowledge of SharePoint and Teams permissions, including sharing links and inherited access.
  • Confident writing PowerShell and using Microsoft Graph.
  • Able to read and query permissions with SQL. Snowflake experience is a plus.
  • Careful with evidence and clear in writing.
  • Right to work in the UK, and able to work through your own limited company.
  • Desirable: Microsoft SC-300 or a similar certification, and experience in financial services.

Benefits

  • Day rate of £550 to £650, depending on experience.
  • Contract role through your own limited company. We expect it to fall outside IR35, and we confirm this before you start.
  • Project based, with blocks of 8 to 12 days for each quarterly review, and more days in the first phase.
  • Remote within the UK, with occasional days in London.
  • Work alongside a senior delivery lead on a regulated client.
  • A place on the Intelance associate panel for future engagements.
