Role Summary

This role is responsible for helping mature and scale a governance framework that enables employees to safely build and use Microsoft Copilot Studio agents and Power Platform solutions across a global financial enterprise. The focus is on security, compliance, and operational governance for citizen development at scale, spanning multiple Microsoft 365 tenants with varied regulatory requirements across regions. The ideal candidate will help design the policies, controls, and support systems that ensure innovation on the Power Platform and Copilot Studio is secure, compliant, and well-managed without stifling agility. This role emphasizes enablement over solution delivery: instead of building individual apps or bots, you will empower an enterprise to build them responsibly.

Key Responsibilities

Governance Framework & Policy Leadership • Develop and enforce enterprise-wide governance frameworks for Copilot Studio and Microsoft Power Platform in a multi-tenant environment. Define the policies, standards, and guardrails to ensure all low-code/no-code development is secure, compliant, and aligned with organizational objectives, compliance standards, and data security. • Lead development and implementation of comprehensive data protection, security, and compliance measures for citizen-developed solutions, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and financial industry regulations (e.g., SOX, GDPR). In partnership with Information Security, Compliance, and Privacy teams, ensure solutions adhere to internal policies and regulatory requirements. • Multi-Tenant Oversight: Coordinate governance across multiple Microsoft 365 tenants as applicable. Develop strategies for cross-tenant consistency in DLP policies, environment configuration, and identity governance. Leverage multi-tenant management capabilities (such as Azure Entra cross-tenant policies) and third-party governance tools to manage at scale. AvePoint, for instance, enables migrating Power Platform apps between tenants while enforcing governance guardrails. • Center of Excellence (CoE) Management: Help operate the Power Platform CoE, including ownership of the Microsoft CoE Starter Kit tooling for monitoring and governance. Create and maintain environment management strategies — including creating new environments, managing the dev/test/prod lifecycle, and geographic tenant segmentation — to enable controlled solution development and deployment. Review and approve environment creations and manage tenant-level settings in line with governance policies.

Security & Compliance Controls

• Working in collaboration with Enterprise Security help implement Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies on two levels: (1) Power Platform DLP policies in the Power Platform Admin Center to govern connector and data source usage, controlling what agents can do — which connectors they may use, which knowledge sources are accessible, and which publishing channels are permitted; and (2) Microsoft Purview DLP policies in the Purview compliance portal to monitor and prevent leakage of sensitive data through Copilot/AI interactions, controlling what data can flow through them. • Microsoft Security & Compliance Tooling: Leverage Microsoft Purview (data classification, sensitivity labels, DLP policies, retention, and compliance concepts), Defender for Cloud Apps, and Entra ID (Azure AD) to enforce security. Work with the team to configure conditional access policies and app permissions via Entra ID to secure Power Platform applications and Copilot agents. Use Microsoft Defender and Cloud App Security policies to detect anomalies in Power Platform usage. • Connector and API Governance: Help the team manage the inventory of connectors (standard and custom) available to makers. Maintain a categorized connectors list in DLP policies (Business, Non-Business, Blocked) to prevent unauthorized data flows. Evaluate and approve new connectors after security review and enforce least-privilege access for service accounts. • AvePoint or Third-Party Governance Integration (Bonus): Where applicable, implement solutions such as AvePoint Cloud Governance to automate enforcement of policies. AvePoint provides scalable management and governance through automated policies enforcing proper control of data access and functionality, automated backup for Power BI workspaces, Power Apps and flows, and cross-tenant migration capabilities. • Identity & Access Management: Work with the Identity team to ensure appropriate role-based access controls (RBAC) and permissions within the Power Platform. Configure Maker and Environment Admin roles, and govern the use of service principals. If multiple tenants are in play, set up cross-tenant access settings and help setup B2B collaboration policies for approved sharing while blocking ad-hoc routes outside of governance.
