With increasing centralisation in policing technology decisions, the role demands strong strategic acumen, technical depth, and the ability to navigate complex stakeholder environments to deliver consistent, scalable outcomes.

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.

  • Translate national strategy into force-level execution, working closely with CIOs and IT leads.
  • Influence and support key sales motions in priority forces undergoing transformation.

  • Proven experience coordinating cross-functional teams and partners to deliver successful customer outcomes.
  • Strong understanding of Microsoft technologies across multiple domains, including Azure infrastructure, AI and Copilot solutions, Microsoft 365 Modern Workplace, Power Platform, and security platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel and Defender.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence at CxO level.
  • A fast learner who thrives on keeping up-to-date with technology to ensure a position of being a trusted, knowledgeable and reliable advisor.
  • Experience of demonstrating the value of joining multiple technologies together to solve business challenges – including the production of demonstrations, engaging presentations and larger-scale customer events such as EBCs, MTCs or hackathons.
