That's why we're now looking for a Solution Lead M365 who wants to take a key role in developing, optimizing, and future-proofing the platform from both a technical and business-aligned perspective.
Organization and Working Approach
Within IT & Digital, Jula has a clear ambition to develop modern platforms that support the business in an efficient and sustainable way. Microsoft 365 is a central part of this work and is widely used in the organization for collaboration, communication, and productivity. The working approach is characterized by close collaboration between different specialist areas, where responsibilities, priorities, and development take place in dialogue with the business. The role of Solution Lead M365 involves overall responsibility for the platform, with a focus on creating structure, direction, and long-term value.

Your Assignment
In the role, you are responsible for leading and prioritizing work within the M365 area and ensuring that the platform develops in a structured and needs-driven manner. You act as an advisor in the selection of solutions and help ensure that technical decisions are well-anchored in the business. Furthermore, you work to develop, configure, and improve solutions within the platform and ensure integration with other IT systems. You drive improvement initiatives and identify opportunities for optimization, focusing on both efficient use and cost-effectiveness. You ensure that decided measures are implemented and followed up. The role also includes guiding and supporting team members and consultants in technical matters related to the platform.
Who Are You?
We are looking for someone with several years of experience working with Microsoft 365 in larger organizations and a good understanding of how the different parts of the platform fit together and can be used effectively. You are accustomed to translating business needs into sustainable solutions and have experience with licensing and cost optimization within M365. You have excellent command of Swedish and English in both speech and writing and thrive in a dynamic, entrepreneurial, and change-intensive environment.
