Senior Cloud Security Architect
London | £120,000 + Bonus
A rare opportunity for a senior cloud security leader to join a growing cyber security consulting practice — blending strategic advisory, technical excellence and practice development in one role.
You'll work with senior client stakeholders to shape cloud security strategy, lead complex transformation programmes, and help organisations securely scale AWS, Azure and GCP environments — while also playing a key role in growing the Cloud Security practice itself.
Why this role stands out:
- Genuine practice leadership — shape the direction of a growing capability, not just deliver on existing engagements
- Exposure to complex, high-profile cloud security programmes across multiple industries and boardrooms
- A flexible, collaborative consulting environment with strong scope for progression
- A genuinely strong benefits package (details below)
If you're as comfortable in a board-level strategy conversation as you are challenging a technical architecture design — this is worth a look.
