OVERVIEW OF POSITION

The Copilot Services Specialist is a specialized technical role within the End User Services (EUS) team, responsible for the deployment, configuration, support, and adoption of Microsoft 365 Copilot and related AI-powered productivity tools across Company's' environment. This position ensures that enterprise AI solutions such as Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Chat, and AI features embedded in Microsoft 365, Azure, and third-party applications are securely integrated, properly configured, and fully leveraged to improve user productivity.

The role blends technical acumen (cloud administration, identity and access, security, and automation) with a strong customer-service orientation (end-user support, training, and adoption).

The Copilot Services Specialist serves as the organization's go-to expert for all things related to Microsoft 365 Copilot, driving successful adoption while ensuring the tools remain reliable, secure, well-governed, and tuned to the organization's needs.

Manage feature release waves and continually optimize tenant-wide Copilot settings for performance and user experience.
Access & License Management: Serve as an Entra ID (Azure AD) administrator for Copilot. Manage user access, roles, and license assignments; enforce role-based access control so that higher-risk functions (such as connecting external plugins) are limited to appropriate personnel; and track, redistribute, and forecast licenses as adoption grows.
Security, Compliance & AI Governance: Implement data-protection policies and AI governance controls for Copilot in coordination with Security and Compliance teams. Configure privacy, content, and access settings so Copilot respects Microsoft 365 sensitivity labels and sharing permissions and regularly review audit logs and usage patterns to detect policy violations or anomalies, taking corrective action as needed.
Support & Troubleshooting: Provide Tier 2/3 support for Copilot-related issues escalated beyond the Service Desk diagnosing failures in Office apps, unexpected AI outputs, and licensing or access problems. Monitor the Microsoft 365 Service Health Dashboard for Copilot incidents, communicate impacts to IT and end users, and engage Microsoft support to resolve complex problems.
User Training & Adoption: Drive Copilot adoption and proficiency among end users by creating guides, how-to articles, and best-practice materials, and by delivering live training sessions and office hours. Champion responsible for AI use, develop a community of Copilot power users, and collect feedback and success stories to inform ongoing improvements.
Integration & Extensibility: Work with the Power Platform and applications teams to extend Copilot using Copilot Studio and custom plugins that connect approved internal data sources. Ensure integrations are tested, secure, and aligned with Microsoft's roadmap for new Copilot extensibility features.
Monitoring & Reporting: Track Copilot usage metrics, adoption trends, and business impact using the Microsoft 365 Copilot usage dashboard and related analytics. Produce accurate daily, weekly, and monthly reports highlighting adoption gaps, estimating productivity gains, and recommending actions and present findings to IT leadership.
Ongoing M365 Administration: Perform general administration across the Microsoft 365 and Azure ecosystem that supports Copilot's success, including client-application currency (in coordination with Desktop Engineering), Teams and SharePoint policy settings, and related service configuration.
Continuous Improvement: Serve as the internal expert on new Copilot capabilities by following the Microsoft 365 Roadmap and Message Center. Plan and implement required admin actions, enable newly available features, and continually refine configurations based on user feedback and evolving best practices.
Performs other duties as assigned.
