Senior Azure Cloud & Security Engineer
Glasgow/Hybrid (2 days a week in the office)
Salary up to £48,000
Our client, an established online education provider based in Glasgow, runs its learning platform and business systems on Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365. They're looking for a senior engineer to take ownership of the security, networking and identity of that environment and set the standard for how it's run.
This is a hands-on role with real influence. You'll be the go-to person for Azure security, working with the IT team, developers and external partners to keep the platform secure, compliant and well run.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
