Due to our growth, we are seeking a SharePoint & Purview Governance Analyst to gather and document business requirements, configure and implement solutions on SharePoint Online, and design and maintain information governance, security, and compliance frameworks across Microsoft 365 — with a focus on SharePoint Online and Microsoft Purview. Are you ready to eimagine better and partner with our clients to create business value through IT solutions? 

Description of Duties 

• Gather and analyze client business requirements, documenting required functionality and uncovering undocumented needs through gap analysis. 

• Configure and implement SharePoint Online solutions — new site builds, hubs, Teams, Viva, Power Automate flows, and no-code Power Apps. 

• Support SharePoint migrations, including on-premises to online, preserving metadata, permissions, and retention. 

• Assess current-state SharePoint and Microsoft 365 environments and develop governance roadmaps, standards, and operating models. 

• Design SharePoint information architecture — site/hub structures, navigation, metadata, and managed metadata (term store) taxonomies. 

• Configure and manage Microsoft Purview: sensitivity and retention labels/policies, DLP, records management, and data lifecycle management. 

• Implement Purview compliance solutions such as eDiscovery, Communication Compliance, Insider Risk Management, and Information Barriers. 

• Establish governance controls for site provisioning, permissions, external sharing, and content lifecycle across SharePoint, Microsoft 365 Groups, and Teams. 

• Automate governance and administrative tasks using PowerShell (PnP, SharePoint Online Management Shell) and Microsoft Graph. 

• Monitor compliance posture via Purview dashboards, audit logs, Content Explorer, and Activity Explorer, and produce reports and remediation recommendations. 

• Partner with security, legal, records, and compliance teams to translate policy and regulatory requirements into technical controls. 

• Develop governance documentation, standards, and runbooks, and train administrators, site owners, and end users. 

• Troubleshoot system issues through root-cause analysis and track assigned tasks and milestones using Azure DevOps or Jira. 

• 5+ years with SharePoint (SharePoint Online and earlier versions) in administration, architecture, or governance — as both user and configurator. 

• 3+ years hands-on with Microsoft Purview, including information protection, data lifecycle/retention, and DLP. 

• Strong knowledge of Microsoft 365 information governance: sensitivity labels, retention, records management, eDiscovery, and auditing. 

• Experience designing SharePoint information architecture — managed metadata, content types, and site/hub structures. 

• Proficiency with PowerShell (PnP, SharePoint Online Management Shell) and familiarity with Microsoft Graph for automation and reporting. 

• Working knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID (groups, conditional access, identity) as it relates to access governance. 

• Understanding of regulatory frameworks (GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA/CPRA, SOX) and how they map to Microsoft 365 controls. 

• Business Analyst experience across the SDLC, including testing and validating solutions. 

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to lead governance workshops and drive consensus. 

• Preferred: Microsoft Teams and Power Platform governance, migration tools (ShareGate/Metalogix), and certifications such as SC-400, SC-900, or MS-102.
