Filter within a Measure

Hi All,

 

I am writing a measure to count all records containing "director" within a job title collumn. However they all vary. Instead of using "IN", what can I use to pick up anything containing "director"?

 

Example of my measure below.

Hey man,

 

Maybe you could use a regular expression. This could help: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Filtering-a-text-column-for-a-specific-pattern/m-p/540794
