City: Farnborough
Contract type: Contractor

We are seeking a highly experienced SharePoint professional with a proven ability to deliver practical, creative solutions in complex and constrained environments.

  • Maintain essential documentation to support continuity and knowledge sharing



Required Qualifications:


  • Extensive hands-on experience with SharePoint (Online and/or On-Premises)
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver creative, functional solutions under non-ideal conditions
  • Strong problem-solving skills and adaptability in unpredictable technical environment.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills



Preferred Attributes:


  • A portfolio showcasing inventive SharePoint implementations or unconventional problem-solving
  • Comfort working without full administrative privileges or formal governance structures
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity and deliver results with limited resources



Not Suitable For:


  • Candidates seeking structured, large-scale deployments or governance-focused roles
  • Individuals reliant on certifications without practical experience
  • Those uncomfortable operating outside documented best practices



If you excel at making SharePoint perform beyond its intended limits and thrive in environments that reward creativity over convention, we encourage you to apply.
