Join us and you'll be part of an open, friendly community of experts. We'll train and support you in taking your career wherever you want it to go.

Due to the secure nature of the programme, you will need to hold UK Security Clearance or be eligible to go through this clearance. This position will be based on site near Chippenham.

Your future duties and responsibilities
As a Cloud Architect, you will be responsible for driving the technical vision and execution of cloud migration initiatives. You will oversee the design, planning, and implementation of cloud-based solutions for complex systems, ensuring that they align with the Client's IT governance, security standards, and business objectives. Your role will involve working closely with diverse stakeholders and reporting directly to the CGI Project Lead within a programme-managed environment.

You will provide strategic planning and technical leadership for cloud migration projects. This will include ensuring compliance with security and regulatory requirements, establishing best practices for cloud architecture, and managing risks associated with cloud transformation.

In this role, you will:

• Provide technical direction and oversight to a team of Cloud Architects and other specialists.
• Establish and enforce best practices, standards, and frameworks for cloud architecture and migration processes.
• Ensure compliance with security, performance, and regulatory requirements in accordance with Client policies.
• Lead the design and planning of complex system and service migrations to a cloud-based environment.
• Develop both high-level and detailed low-level component designs to support seamless migration and integration.
