NETWORKDAYS dynamically filtering by dates and person

I want to calculate the working days between dates with varying holidays within a specified period. For example, I have a table that lists personal holidays:

 

PersonHolidays
Jane02-Feb-23
Jane03-Mar-23
Jane21-Jul-23
Michael01-Mar-23

 

And I have a table with jobs

                                          Jobs
JobPersonStartEndAvailability
Job 1Jane01-Jan04-Feb(Working days - holidays)
Job 2Michael10-Feb21-Apr 

 

I need the Availability column to include working days between those dates (or dates i select from a slicer, for example all of February), removing dates from the other table where the person has a holiday. Can anyone help me find a solution for this please?

@Albatross810 So like this?

Measure = 
    VAR __Person = MAX('Jobs'[Person])
    VAR __Result = NETWORKDAYS(MAX([Start]), MAX([End]), 1, SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Holidays', [Person] = __Person),"__Holidays",[Holidays]))
RETURN
    __Result

Been working with NETWORKDAYS all day, can't seem to solve this one. It doesn't sum multiple periods if I'm selecting several for example and won't let me use the holiday table dynamically by owner. But thank you for sharing.

Measure = 
    VAR __Person = MAX('Jobs'[Person])
    VAR __Result = NETWORKDAYS(MAX([Start]), MAX([End]), 1, SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Holidays', [Person] = __Person),"__Holidays",[Holidays]))
RETURN
    __Result
