🚀 Head of Cloud Security / Senior Cloud Security Architect | £120,000 + Bonus | Hybrid – London
A rare opportunity for a highly experienced cloud security leader to join a growing cyber security consulting practice, combining strategic advisory, technical excellence and practice development in a single senior role. You'll work with senior client stakeholders to define cloud security strategies, lead complex transformation programmes and help organisations securely adopt and scale modern cloud technologies — while also playing a key role in expanding the Cloud Security practice, developing propositions and mentoring talent.
If you're a cloud security leader who's as comfortable in a board-level strategy conversation as you are challenging a technical architecture design, this is well worth a look.
✨ Why this role stands out:
- Genuine practice leadership influence — shape the direction of a growing Cloud Security capability and contribute to business development, thought leadership and go-to-market strategy, not just delivery
- Exposure to complex, high-profile cloud security programmes across multiple industries, advising at board level from strategy through to implementation across AWS, Azure and GCP
- A flexible, collaborative consulting environment with significant scope for professional growth and leadership progression
