Role Purpose To support DWS and the Switched On Data Defence programme by defining, and building capability within the business to use SharePoint for safe collaboration with external partners. This runs in parallel to a programme that will prevent unsafe sharing methods, so the messaging and delivery needs to be in sync. Key Responsibilities

• Define and document SharePoint principles, standards and ways of working for DWS and the Data Defence programme, especially around permissions, access reviews, time limits, external sharing and safe collaboration.
• Act as the SharePoint subject matter expert for the Stronger Controls phase, helping shape and validate solutions covering site/container controls, guest access, download restrictions and secure collaboration patterns.
• Work with DWS, the Data Defence team and technical SMEs to validate SharePoint design decisions and support implementation planning where SharePoint-specific configuration effort is required

• Deliver or coordinate capability-building activity such as training sessions, Communities of Practice, champion enablement and user support for SharePoint safe-sharing behaviours
• Support impact assessments and business readiness activity for medium- and high-impact controls, including identifying process impacts, exceptions, dependencies and safe alternatives.
• Provide hands-on support for SharePoint-related issues raised through the programme, including pilot support, testing, user pain points and troubleshooting in complex or customised SharePoint environments.

Key Outcomes Clear and consistent SharePoint guidance is in place for the business. SharePoint is increasingly used as the preferred collaboration method for approved sharing scenarios. Business users are better equipped to manage permissions, guests and external collaboration safely. SharePoint-related controls are designed and rolled out with stronger readiness, lower confusion and better support. User pain points and operational issues are surfaced early and addressed through pilots, support and feedback loops.
