Job Description

Senior Microsoft 365 Engineer / SharePoint Governance Consultant (Contract)
Location: Bothell, WA (Onsite initially, with potential to transition to hybrid)
Hours: 40 hours/week
Bill Rate: Up to $150/hour
Overview
Our client is seeking a Senior Microsoft 365 Engineer with deep expertise in SharePoint Online governance, administration, and architecture to lead a critical enterprise-wide modernization initiative. This individual will assess the current Microsoft 365 environment, establish governance standards, and develop a long-term strategy for managing and securing the organization's SharePoint environment.

The immediate priority is improving the governance and organization of more than 2,000 SharePoint sites, many of which have outdated ownership, inconsistent permissions, and limited oversight. This consultant will create a roadmap for future-state governance while helping the organization prepare for an operational audit later this year.

This is a highly visible role requiring someone who can both execute technically and provide architectural guidance and best practices.
Responsibilities

  • Lead the assessment and remediation of a large-scale SharePoint Online environment consisting of approximately 2,000 sites.

  • Establish governance standards for SharePoint site provisioning, ownership, lifecycle management, and permissions.

  • Design and implement standardized permission models and access review processes.

  • Identify inactive or orphaned SharePoint sites and develop consolidation and cleanup strategies.

  • Create governance documentation, standards, and operational processes that support long-term scalability.

  • Develop a future-state Microsoft 365 governance roadmap and provide strategic recommendations.

  • Partner with business and IT stakeholders to improve collaboration and data management practices.

  • Prepare documentation and implementation plans to support an upcoming operational audit.

  • Assist with Azure administration and Microsoft cloud initiatives as needed.

  • Serve as the technical advisor for Microsoft 365 governance and SharePoint best practices.
Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience administering and engineering Microsoft 365 environments, with significant expertise in SharePoint Online.

  • Strong experience designing and implementing SharePoint governance frameworks.

  • Deep understanding of:

    • SharePoint Online administration

    • Site provisioning standards

    • Permission modeling

    • Access reviews

    • Information governance

    • Site lifecycle management

  • Experience auditing and reorganizing complex Microsoft 365 environments.

  • Ability to assess existing environments and recommend scalable future-state architectures.

  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to work directly with technical leadership and business stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Microsoft Azure administration or architecture.

  • Experience with Power Platform (Power Automate, Power Apps, or Power BI).

  • Microsoft 365 or Azure certifications are a plus.

  • Previous consulting experience leading Microsoft 365 modernization or governance initiatives.
Ideal Background
Candidates who have worked as a Senior Microsoft 365 Engineer, Microsoft 365 Consultant, SharePoint Architect, Collaboration Architect, or Microsoft Cloud Consultant will be especially well suited for this opportunity.

Experience with organizations undergoing Microsoft 365 governance transformations or large-scale SharePoint clean-up initiatives is highly desirable.
What Success Looks Like
Within the first several months, this consultant will:

  • Assess the existing Microsoft 365 and SharePoint environment.

  • Deliver a comprehensive SharePoint governance strategy.

  • Implement standardized governance for site provisioning, permissions, and ownership.

  • Identify and begin remediation of inactive and duplicate SharePoint sites.

  • Produce a future-state roadmap that can be presented during the upcoming operational audit.

  • Begin executing the roadmap while positioning the organization for long-term Microsoft 365 governance maturity.
Additional Notes

  • Full-time onsite in Bothell is expected initially; hybrid flexibility may be available once the consultant is fully ramped up.

  • The client is looking for someone who can start as soon as possible.

  • Candidates with backgrounds similar to Microsoft 365 consultants from companies such as Umicore, Alcon, or similar enterprise organizations are likely to align well with the technical requirements.
