Role:
Do you want to design modern Microsoft 365 environments while ensuring that sensitive information is optimally protected? In this position, you combine technical M365 know-how with information security, governance, and modern AI technologies. You are responsible for the further development of central M365 services, establish well-thought-out permission and protection concepts, and create the conditions for the secure use of Microsoft Copilot and AI agents. You actively shape how information is classified, managed, and used in a controlled manner.
Responsibilities:
You are responsible for the technical roadmap and operation of central Microsoft 365 services such as SharePoint, Teams, and Microsoft Purview.
You develop permission models, governance policies, and lifecycle processes for sites, teams, and other M365 components.
You implement and optimise sensitivity labels, data loss prevention, retention policies, and auditing mechanisms.
You structure the information architecture and ensure that Microsoft Copilot and AI agents only access correctly classified and approved information.
You further develop concepts for data classification and AI governance and manage the release of content for AI applications and central AI access platforms.
Qualifications:
You have several years of experience in the administration and further development of Microsoft 365 environments, especially SharePoint Online.
You have solid practical knowledge of Microsoft Purview, sensitivity labels, DLP, and modern permission concepts.
You work confidently with PowerShell and Microsoft Graph API. Certifications such as MS-102 or SC-401 are a plus.
You are familiar with data protection requirements, ideally the cantonal data protection law in Switzerland, as well as information classification.
You communicate convincingly in German and English and can clearly convey complex security requirements. Experience with agile methods and taxonomy concepts rounds off your profile.
