Azure Solution Architect

UK remote with minimal travel

Up to £110k plus car plus bonus

I'm working with a Global Consultancy that's scaling up its Azure practice and looking for a Solution Architect to lead the design of enterprise cloud solutions for major clients.

They're looking for a Solution Architect to shape Microsoft cloud adoption strategy - combining infrastructure architecture, Azure governance, and hands-on technical leadership across complex programmes.

This is a senior, client-facing role where you'll be acting as Technical Design Authority on projects, driving Azure adoption for clients, and helping grow the practice.

What you'll be doing:

• Working with clients on their Microsoft cloud adoption strategy
• Creating high-level architectural designs for infrastructure and applications
• Acting as Technical Design Authority (TDA) on projects alongside Technical Architects
• Delivering product presentations and demos to prospects and clients
• Providing governance to projects and mentoring team members
• Showcasing propositions via webinars and face-to-face workshops
• Supporting proposals and RFIs alongside sales and pre-sales teams
• Assisting with recruitment and growing the Azure practice

What they're looking for:

• Solid background in on-premises infrastructure, virtualisation, or applications
• Proven experience with Azure IaaS (networking, storage, VMs)
• Proven experience with Azure Governance (Blueprints, policies, tagging, cost management)
• Proven experience with Azure Security (NSG, ASG, Sentinel, Security Centre, Defender, Firewall)
• Proven experience with Azure SQL, Serverless (Functions/Logic Apps), and Kubernetes (ACR/ACI)
• Experience with Azure AD and on-premises Active Directory
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (ARM/Terraform/PowerShell)
• Experience leading client engagements and managing technical teams
• Desirable: Microsoft 365, Python, Azure Data Factory

If you're interested in where Azure architecture is heading - governance, modernisation, and large-scale cloud transformation - this is a great opportunity to get involved at a senior level.
