Precision’s uniquely integrated offering enables the science of precision medicine by combining novel clinical trial designs, industry-leading operational and medical experts, advanced biomarker and data analytics solutions, and an unequivocal real passion for rare diseases and oncology, in addition to working across other therapeutic areas.
As our Microsoft 365 environment continues to grow, we are seeking a Microsoft 365 Governance Administrator to help modernize, govern, and integrate our collaboration platform across SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, and the Power Platform. This role is ideal for someone who has hands-on experience cleaning up, rationalizing, and integrating large Microsoft 365 tenants and who enjoys bringing order, structure, and sustainability to complex environments.
As a Microsoft 365 Governance Administrator, you will play a critical role in shaping and operating Microsoft 365 governance across the organization. This includes permissions management, lifecycle controls, retention and records management, information protection, tenant integration, and data-driven governance reporting—working closely with Legal, GRC, Security, IT, and MA stakeholders.
This is a governance-first role with strong execution responsibility, well suited for someone who understands how M365 environments evolve over time—and how to modernize and integrate them without disrupting the business.

Assess and remediate legacy configurations, over-permissioned content, and stale collaboration resources.
Drive tenant modernization aligned to Microsoft best practices and enterprise governance standards.
Permissions Access Management

Archiving inactive Teams, Sites, and Groups
Decommissioning unused or abandoned resources
Preventing long-term collaboration sprawl
Implement and manage retention and records management policies in partnership with Legal and GRC teams.
Support classification of content as records where required and ensure defensible disposition.
Apply and govern sensitivity labels to protect regulated and high-risk content.
Mergers Acquisitions (MA) Enablement
Support Microsoft 365 migration and integration efforts associated with MA activity.
Assess incoming tenants for governance gaps, security risks, and modernization opportunities.
Execute or support migrations of SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams content into the enterprise tenant.
Align acquired environments to established governance, lifecycle, retention, and information protection standards.
Automation, Reporting Operations
Automate governance and administration using AvePoint, PowerShell, Power Automate, SharePoint Advanced Management, and Microsoft Graph.
Analyze and manipulate large governance and usage data sets to identify trends, risks, and optimization opportunities.
Produce operational and compliance-focused reports to support lifecycle decisions and leadership visibility.
Act as an escalation point for complex governance and collaboration issues.
