Technology, AI & Automation Manager

Technology, AI & Automation Manager

Didsbury, South Manchester | Hybrid – 3 days per week in office | 12-month FTC

We’re looking for a Technology, AI & Automation Manager to join Amoria Group on a 12-month fixed-term basis.

This is a role for someone who enjoys more than just keeping the lights on.

You’ll provide technology leadership across the Group, working alongside our established IT Support and Security leads, external MSP and technology partners. But a major part of the role will be hands-on delivery – designing, building and implementing technology, AI and automation solutions that genuinely improve the way we work.

We’ve invested heavily in our technology estate and are now increasing our focus on Microsoft Power Platform, Copilot, AI and automation. We have a growing pipeline of opportunities and need someone who can take a business problem, identify the right technical solution and then actually build it.

What you’ll be doing

Technology leadership & operations

• Oversee the effective day-to-day delivery of IT services across the Group
• Provide technical leadership and escalation where required
• Work closely with our IT Support Lead, IT Systems & Security Lead, MSP and technology suppliers
• Oversee supplier performance and significant technology changes
• Help ensure our technology environment remains stable, secure and aligned with business priorities
• Manage, mentor and develop technology team members

AI, automation & technology solutions

• Design and build solutions using Microsoft Power Platform, particularly Power Automate and Power Apps
• Develop solutions using Copilot and Copilot Studio
• Work with teams across the business to understand processes, pain points and opportunities

You’ll work closely with our Business Transformation Lead, combining their focus on process improvement, change and adoption with your technical design and delivery capability.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone who combines broad technology experience with strong hands-on Microsoft Power Platform capability.

Ideally, you’ll have:

• Strong hands-on Power Automate and Power Apps experience
• Experience designing and implementing end-to-end automation solutions
• Experience with Copilot Studio, Microsoft 365 Copilot or wider AI technologies
• Strong Microsoft 365 knowledge, particularly SharePoint and Teams
• The ability to translate business problems into practical technical solutions
• Experience overseeing IT operations, infrastructure or business systems
• Experience working with MSPs and technology suppliers
• Strong technical problem-solving skills
• The ability to work confidently with technical and non-technical stakeholders
• A pragmatic approach to technology – knowing when to build, when to automate and when a simpler solution is better
• Experience managing, mentoring and developing technology team members

You don’t need to be a specialist in every part of our technology estate. We already have internal leads and external partners providing specialist support.

What we do need is someone with enough breadth to provide effective technology leadership, combined with the technical capability and enthusiasm to get hands-on and deliver.

Why join us?

This is a genuine opportunity to build and implement solutions that will be used across the business, influence how we use AI and automation, and help shape the next stage of our technology roadmap.

You’ll have access to senior stakeholders, established internal technology resources and external partners, while still having the autonomy to design and deliver solutions yourself.

If you enjoy the combination of technology leadership, problem solving and actually building things, we’d love to hear from you.
