About Standish Management
Standish Management is a global fund administration firm serving private equity, venture capital, real estate, and fund-of-funds managers across multiple worldwide offices. We are in an active technology transformation — building a governed SharePoint architecture, delivering Power Platform automation firmwide, integrating AI-enabled workflows, and migrating our infrastructure to Azure. The engineer who joins us will own a meaningful portion of that transformation from day one, working alongside the CIO and VP of Global IT Operations.
Position Summary
Standish Management is seeking a Senior SharePoint & Power Platform Technical Lead.
This is not a ticket-driven role. We are hiring for ownership, initiative, and accountability — not for someone who waits to be told what to do. If you thrive on taking an objective, figuring out how to accomplish it, and being responsible for the outcome, read on.
Our ideal candidate:
- Owns the outcome: Accountable from initial conversation through production, not just assigned tasks.
- Asks until they understand: Stays curious and seeks to fully understand the business problem before building a solution.
- Proposes, then builds: Turns ambiguity into clear options, recommends an approach, gains alignment, and delivers.
- Moves without being pushed: Identifies next steps and takes action without waiting for direction.
- Communicates proactively: Raises blockers early and keeps stakeholders informed on progress, next steps, and decisions needed.
- Willing to learn the business: Develops knowledge of fund structures, compliance workflows, and operations to create better solutions.
- Challenges respectfully: Offers alternative approaches backed by sound technical reasoning when appropriate.
- Shows work, not just status: Demonstrates progress through tangible outputs such as prototypes, designs, configurations, and delivered solutions.

- Identify blockers early and actively resolve them — never use a dependency as a reason to stop productive work
