About you

You will have a strong technical background with Azure and have worked within I.T. infrastructure (on-premises / hybrid and/or cloud-native), preferably with large organisations and enterprise scale platforms. You will also have experience working for an MSP or service provider. You will have demonstrable certifications and experience in deploying Infrastructure and platform-based solutions or experience in managing modern platform services, and be comfortable delivering to tight timescales whilst managing multiple Azure projects in various environments.

This role will appeal to someone who enjoys maintaining knowledge of technology through active involvement in solution delivery, whilst still wanting to develop their career through expanding their skill set in digital transformation. This role involves extensive work with modern Azure platform services and will not suit an engineer who only has exposure to lift+shift virtual machine migrations.

Salary - £55,000-£65,000 per year depending on experience
