This is a fantastic opportunity to join a high-profile programme delivery team, working on a critical automation workstream that ensures creators and rights holders are compensated for their work.

In this role, you won’t just be building flows; you will be a key technical authority within the Robotic Process Automation (RPA) workstream, responsible for developing robust automations that support the backbone of the music ecosystem.

The Opportunity

You will operate as a pivotal part of the programme delivery team, responsible for the end-to-end development of automation processes. You will work with cutting-edge technology, integrating intelligent automation capabilities (such as Machine Learning, OCR, and NLP) into scalable workflows.

Key Responsibilities

• Development: Design, develop, and implement enterprise-grade automations using Power Automate (cloud flows, desktop flows/RPA, and combined workflows).
• Solution Design: Review Process Definition Documents (PDDs) and create detailed Solution Design Documents (SDDs).
• Testing & Quality: Lead System Integration Testing (SIT) and User Acceptance Testing (UAT), ensuring automations are robust, fit-for-purpose, and align with governance frameworks.
• Integration: Integrate intelligent automation capabilities (AI, OCR, NLP) into automated processes to enhance functionality.
• Handover: Manage the smooth transition of automations to the support team during Post Go-Live Support (PGLS), ensuring comprehensive knowledge transfer.
• Best Practices: Assist in defining development best practices, support the Center of Excellence (CoE) in configuring environments (Dev/Test/Live), and mentor citizen developers through code reviews.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Present technical solutions clearly to stakeholders, work closely with the Automation Change team to secure system access, and build strong relationships with the support team to enforce standards.

Required Qualifications & Experience

• Advanced Certification in RPA (specifically Power Automate; UiPath or Blue Prism certifications are also highly beneficial).
• Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience with Power Automate, with at least 4 years total experience in RPA development.
• Experience working with Azure cloud services (advantageous).
• Proven track record of developing complex automated projects that combine RPA with AI solutions (OCR, NLP, ML) within medium-to-large organizations.
• Proficiency with development management tools such as Azure DevOps.
• Strong experience critiquing PDDs and creating SDDs to ensure developments are robust and scalable.
• Experience working within projects and programmes, utilizing both Waterfall and Agile methodologies.
• Keenness to train and mentor citizen developers, with the ability to run code reviews and enforce best practices.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Blue Prism or UiPath in addition to Power Automate.
• Solution Architect experience or certification.
