Job Description:
SharePoint Content Migration Designer
Remote First Working - UK Wide.
Financial Services


Lorien’s leading global banking client is seeking a senior SharePoint Content Migration Strategy Manager to join a major enterprise-wide transformation programme.
This is a high-impact role responsible for designing and building the content migration strategy from scratch, securing Board- and ExCo-level buy-in, and leading both the strategy phase and Phase 2 delivery of the migration to SharePoint Online.


You will combine strong technical SharePoint platform expertise with senior stakeholder influence, acting as a trusted advisor while driving the migration from concept through to successful execution.


The role is UK-wide, operated in a remote-first model, and engaged via umbrella.


Key Skills and Experience
*Design, build, and own the end-to-end content migration strategy from inception, defining the target approach for migrating legacy platforms to SharePoint Online.
*Assess, evaluate, and recommend migration approaches, tooling, and architectural options, producing materials for approval via formal governance and decision-making forums.
*Influence, manage, and engage senior stakeholders up to Board and Executive Committee level, confidently selling the strategy, securing sponsorship, and driving alignment.
*Develop and maintain a detailed migration roadmap, covering milestones, risks, dependencies, assumptions, and mitigation strategies.
*Define the overall migration and SharePoint delivery framework, including process, platform design, data quality standards, governance, security, and compliance considerations.
*Own Phase 2 delivery, transitioning from strategy into execution and ensuring the migration is delivered in line with the approved roadmap.
*Provide technical leadership across the SharePoint Online platform, leveraging deep hands-on experience to shape design decisions, solution architecture, and migration outcomes.
*Define resourcing and capability requirements, supporting onboarding and mobilisation of delivery teams where required.
*Lead and coordinate multi-disciplinary teams to deliver the migration effectively, on time, and to quality standards.
*Work closely with business, technology, and programme stakeholders to ensure content is migrated accurately, securely, and in line with regulatory and business requirements.
*Ensure alignment with the wider transformation programme, managing interdependencies across parallel workstreams.
*Deliver clear progress reporting and insight to programme governance, steering committees, and senior leadership forums.
*Translate complex technical architecture and migration detail into clear, executive-level communication for non-technical stakeholders.


Skills & Experience Required
*Proven experience building and owning content migration strategies from scratch, through to successful delivery.
*Strong, hands-on technical experience designing and building SharePoint Online platforms within enterprise environments.
*Demonstrated delivery of large-scale SharePoint or content migration programmes, ideally within regulated or complex organisations.
*Proven ability to influence senior leaders, engaging confidently with Board- and ExCo-level stakeholders.
*Experience selling strategic recommendations and driving consensus across competing priorities.
*Background leading delivery teams through Phase 2 execution, not just strategy and design.
*Excellent communication skills, with the ability to bridge deep technical detail and executive decision-making.
*Comfortable operating in a remote-first, UK-wide delivery model.
*Banking or financial services experience is highly desirable.
