You will belong to the Infrastructure & Cloud unit at Sweco IT and report to the Team Manager for Office 365 Management. The team is formed of specialists in the sub areas of Identity, Collaboration and Email/messaging who are spread across 5 different European countries.
As the use and adoption of O365 in Sweco is increasing at a fast pace there are lots of opportunities to drive change and be at the forefront of new technologies.
Person Profile
As a person, you are driven, proactive, like to work at a fast pace and find it fun to solve problems. You have an ability to think both short-term and long-term at the same time and are passionate about delivering positive results.
