Your new role

Reporting to a Training Manager, you will be the main contact for all Microsoft training and skilling queries, and work to enhance existing processes and learning initiatives in line with organizational strategy.

This is a results-driven role, you'll build strong relationships with stakeholders across the business and externally to reach Microsoft solution area, certification, and compliance goals, along with technical training requirements.
