Job description

I'm working with a well-known FTSE 100 organisation that is investing heavily in its Azure cloud platform and is looking to add a hands-on DevOps Engineer to its Cloud Infrastructure team.

This is a genuine opportunity to have a direct impact on the design, automation, and ongoing evolution of a large-scale Azure environment, rather than simply supporting a small part of a wider platform.

What's on offer?

• £600-£650 per day (Inside IR35)
• Contract secured until the end of 2026
• Strong likelihood of extension beyond this
• Hybrid working (typically 1-2 days per week onsite)
• Opportunity to work closely with senior cloud leadership and influence platform direction

Key technologies

• Azure Cloud Infrastructure
• Terraform
• Azure DevOps & YAML Pipelines
• AKS / Kubernetes
• Azure Networking & Security
• Infrastructure as Code

The client is particularly interested in engineers who have worked in smaller teams, taken ownership of solutions end-to-end, and are comfortable balancing project delivery with operational support.

Please only apply if you are happy to work for a rate of £650 per day, work inside IR35 and work on a hybrid basis for an average of 2 days per week
