Senior Modern Work and Security Architect
At Fusion5, we help organisations go beyond individual platforms to design and deliver connected, future‐ready solutions that create real business impact.
- Play a pivotal, front‐of‐room role in how Fusion5 scopes and shapes Managed Services Modern Work and Security solutions
- Blend deep Modern Workplace expertise with security know‐how and a consultative, client‐facing mindset
- Help shape Fusion5's growing Managed Services catalogue and emerging Centre of Excellence
What You'll Do
- Get involved early in customer conversations to properly qualify Managed Services opportunities – understanding the client's environment, ticket volumes and what they're actually trying to solve.
- Help shape Fusion5's Managed Services offering – what's in scope, what isn't, and how we price and deliver it consistently.
- Contribute to Fusion5's emerging Centre of Excellence, helping build the standards and thinking that will guide the practice over time.
- Bring strong Modern Workplace expertise, with a solid understanding of security concepts (MFA, Zero Trust fundamentals and the broader cyber landscape).
- Support the push toward automation, orchestration and self‐service, helping clients get more value from tools like Halo.
- Engage confidently and credibly with clients – you'll be one of the technical people we trust to put in front of a customer.
- Coach and mentor less experienced consultants where it's useful – this isn't a people‐leadership role, but your experience will help others grow.
- Partner closely with Sales and delivery teams to make sure what's scoped and sold is realistic, well‐understood and deliverable.
- Work alongside experienced Modern Workplace, security and pre‐sales specialists across the practice to build well‐rounded solutions.
What You'll Bring
- 10+ years' experience in Microsoft technologies, with strong depth in Modern Work and Security.
- 7+ years hands‐on experience with Microsoft 365 migrations, including tenant‐to‐tenant.
- A solid understanding of Microsoft 365 architecture – formal solution‐architecture experience is a bonus, but not a requirement.
- Experience working within a Managed Services, Consulting or Systems Integrator environment.
- A solid, high‐level understanding of Microsoft security concepts (MFA, Zero Trust fundamentals) – deeper cybersecurity expertise is a bonus.
- Comfortable in front of clients and confident in pre‐sales‐adjacent conversations – you don't need to be a dedicated salesperson, but you know how to build trust and shape a solution with a customer in the room.
- Strong communication and relationship‐building skills, with the ability to represent Fusion5 credibly in front of clients.
- Relevant Microsoft certifications (M365 Administrator Expert, Identity & Access, Endpoint, Information Protection & Compliance, SC‐100, Teams) are highly regarded; real‐world experience matters more than a full set.
- Ability to obtain (or already hold) an Australian Government security clearance – baseline minimum, with some engagements requiring NV1.
