  Hands-on experience designing and building solutions using Microsoft Power Apps, Power Automate and Dataverse, turning business needs into user-friendly solutions.

  Experience within Financial Crime, Fraud, AML, KYC, Risk, Compliance or another regulated environment, with an understanding of operational processes and controls.

• Advanced Power Platform & integration
  Experience developing more complex Power Platform solutions and integrating Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, SharePoint, Microsoft 365, APIs or Azure.

• AI & emerging technology
  Exposure to Microsoft Copilot, AI-enabled tools or intelligent automation, with an interest in applying emerging technology to improve operational outcomes.
