Functional application manager M365 – IT job in Netherlands

Your work is visible in the city and the organization!
A new residential area in Hoorn? The maintenance of roads and greenery in Hoorn? Want to ensure that the digital workplace runs like a charm so that your colleagues can do their work without any problems? Today you are working on guest use in M365, tomorrow on Secure Mail and settings in Adobe, and oh yes, you also have to quickly call a supplier to schedule a consultation.

As a functional application manager, you help to make this possible. Many colleagues, residents and entrepreneurs depend on well-functioning applications. And that is exactly where you make the difference. You speak the user’s language and ensure that the applications meet their needs.

Further

• You support colleagues in the executive teams with the use of various applications.
• You advise on the use and possibilities of the applications and make suggestions for improvement where necessary.
• You support the remote access of guest users, and you ensure the security of personal data and documents.
• You maintain an overview of the application landscape, in collaboration with the information manager, with external service providers, cloud and SaaS suppliers.
• You manage user rights, maintain documentation, provide user training and communicate clearly to the organization.
• You participate in projects. These are often scrum teams. You may also fill the role of the Scrum Master.
• In case of changes, you monitor the overview and progress, in coordination with the change manager, and ensure that professional testing is carried out. You carry out tests yourself and you also manage the testing process of the user organization.

Working together gives you energy and you don’t wait, but tackle things proactively. You have strong oral and written skills and you want to achieve great results by setting up applications and information systems. You find it fun and important to develop yourself further.
