Talent Acquisition - Tech & Engineering at Credera UK

Are you passionate about developing a career in technology? Does the idea of working for different clients on complex business-critical IT projects excite you? If yes, then read on! At Credera, we define, design, implement and migrate to public, private and hybrid Cloud for our clients. We help identify and avoid common misconceptions and maximize the benefits of a cloud transformation programme. If the idea of developing pragmatic strategies and approaches to Cloud adoption energises you then you are in good company.

Here’s what you will do

Our Cloud Architects identify, design and implement the tools clients need to best host their IT infrastructure and deliver value. Combining delivery best practices with the latest technologies, we help solve complex business challenges. Typically, our technical cloud work contains significant elements of defining, designing and building cloud architectures, security solutions and cloud platforms as well as having a solid understanding of infrastructure and on-prem technologies. For our technical consultants, we expect a significant level of hands-on experience with cloud / infrastructure related technologies and a desire to maintain a balance between technical and business skills as they grow their careers within the firm.

Based out of any of our UK offices, this is a permanent role within our Cloud Function. At Credera, we operate a flexible hybrid working model. This requires 3 days per week working onsite - either at client site (as required) or in your local Credera office (London, Manchester, Leeds or Newcastle). We value collaboration and client impact, so our hybrid model is designed to strike a balance between flexibility, in-person connection, and delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients. To meet our client\'s needs, you will be security clearable.

Responsibilities

• Analysing complex estates and assuring that delivery progresses on time and on budget, with minimal disruption to existing business. You will:
• Develop the business case and strategy for AWS Cloud solutions;
• Plan and execute complex Cloud Migrations;
• Build a deep understanding of a client’s business and cloud maturity, determining the appropriate criteria for successful use of the cloud and an approach for achieving it;
• Design complex Cloud Architectures for our clients;
• Design and assure cloud solutions, such that they are cost-efficient, secure and leverage maximum potential from the products offered by cloud vendors;
• Cloud engineering and DevOps transformation;
• Set up teams with the right skill-sets, tools and practices to get the best out of cloud technology;
• Work with the Technical team at Credera to develop the maturity of our Cloud knowledge and collateral;
• Staying up to date through further learning, attendance at events and monitoring market trends and developments;
• Act in Credera\'s best interests and demonstrate the company’s values of: Integrity, Intelligence, Personal Touch, Tenacity and Pragmatism.

Who you are?

• Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities;
• Self-starter, with a desire to learn business subjects;
• Flexibility to travel to, and work in, other locations;
• Able to work collaboratively;
• Strong communication, presentation and business writing skills;
• Stakeholder and relationship management, the ability to build strong relationships both internally and externally.

You have demonstrable knowledge and experience in at least one of the three fields:

• Cloud migration;
• Cloud strategy and transformation;
• Cloud architecture and engineering.

You also have a broad knowledge of the major cloud vendors with deep knowledge of AWS, and an understanding of the high-level levers for cost-effective cloud delivery.

You have consulting knowledge and experience:

• Experience of working in a client-facing capacity as part of a consulting team (essential).
• Prior experience of delivering complex engagements either as a leader or a senior member of a team;
• Experience of full delivery life cycle coupled with the ability to deliver significant impact, quickly;
• Proven ability to develop strong relationships and be able to influence colleagues, senior client stakeholders, partners, suppliers;
• Demonstrable knowledge of delivery business value to clients through IT.

Any of the following attributes would be ideal:

• You have a certification in one of the major cloud vendors (ideally AWS)
• Deep hands-on experience with CI/CD/automation tooling (Jenkins, Ansible);
• Deep hands-on experience with cloud orchestration tooling (Terraform, CloudFormation);
• Broad architecture and delivery experience;
• Specific experience of securing and improving the resilience of complex estates;

Along with a great company culture, Credera provides an exceptional compensation package including a competitive salary (£80,000-110,000) and a comprehensive benefits plan.
