In 2006, she appeared in the BBC drama Waterloo Road as English teacher Lorna Dickey, and returned for the second series in 2007, until her character committed suicide having been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

In early 2008, she starred in a Torchwood (episode: "From Out of the Rain") as Pearl, a circus star who escapes an old cinema film and seeks revenge on those who put her out of business.

Power was seen in the British action movie The Tournament as the ruthless assistant to Liam Cunningham's Tournament Master. In 2012, she appeared in two episodes of ITV drama Whitechapel.
