Job description

6-Month Contract |SC Clearance (Current, Lapsed or Eligible)

Hybrid working (2 days p/week onsite near Cardiff for the first month then 1 day onsite p/month thereafter)

Budgets are tight at £300 - £400 p/day (ideally closer to the £300 mark) but this has been determined as Outside IR35 if that helps (we can still pay through an umbrella of course if you prefer that)

We're recruiting a Cloud Data Platform Specialist to support the operation, administration and ongoing development of a modern Microsoft Azure data platform.

This isn't a Data Scientist role. We're looking for someone with a strong operational and platform administration background who can manage, support and improve enterprise cloud data services.

You’ll need experience with:

• Microsoft Databricks
• Microsoft Fabric
• Azure Data Factory
• Azure Data Lake
• Azure SQL
• Power BI
• Administration and operational support of Azure data platforms

You’ll also ideally have experience with:

• Azure DevOps and controlled deployment environments
• Infrastructure as Code using Terraform
• Integration platforms, ideally Salesforce MuleSoft

Ideally you'd have:

• Current SC Clearance, recently lapsed SC, or be eligible and willing to undergo SC/MV clearance
• Experience working within secure or highly regulated environments
• Strong troubleshooting and platform support skills

Contract Length: 6 months initially, with strong potential for extension

Location: Hybrid role with occasional travel to Cardiff
