AI2IO recognizes salary ranges from job boards do not necessarily reflect our pay ranges.  In many instances we out-compete those ranges for well-qualified candidates.

The Microsoft 365 Collaboration Specialist will help our clients and internal teams get the most out of Microsoft 365 by designing, configuring, and supporting the collaboration tools people rely on every day.

This role focuses on SharePoint Online, Microsoft Teams, and OneDrive for Business, including site and team provisioning, information architecture, permissions, governance, and content migration.

This person will partner with stakeholders and end users to understand how their teams work, recommend the right collaboration approach, and drive adoption through training and clear documentation. A passion for staying on top of changes in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem—including Copilot and other emerging capabilities—is essential.

The role requires a proactive individual who can translate business needs into well-structured, secure, and user-friendly collaboration environments.
