Our culture of growth and empathy focuses on your long-term career development while valuing your unique skills and experiences.

Your role and responsibilities

As a Microsoft 365 Copilot Consultant Intern at IBM, you'll work with clients to co-create solutions to major real-world challenges by using best practice technologies, tools, techniques, and products to translate business requirements into the design and delivery of AI agents that live where people already work - in Teams, Outlook, SharePoint, Word and Excel.

You will participate in many aspects of the delivery lifecycle, such as discovery, design, configuration, testing, enablement, and value measurement. You will build declarative and custom agents in Microsoft Copilot Studio; extend Microsoft 365 Copilot with agents, Microsoft Graph connectors and plugins; automate business processes with Power Automate, Power Apps and Dataverse; and support agent governance and lifecycle work including registration and identity through Agent 365, permissions, DLP policies and environment strategy. You will also contribute to client workshops, demos, and proposal artifacts.

In your role, you will be supported by mentors and coaches who will encourage you to challenge the norm, investigate ideas outside of your role, and come up with creative solutions resulting in ground-breaking impact for the wider business, our external clients, and their customers. Our culture of flexibility and freedom are pillars that embrace long-term career growth and learning opportunities in an environment that highlights your unique skills and experience.
