We are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Oracle Data Migration Architect with Integration skills to work within a team of highly skilled consultants and positively drive and enable our deliveries.

Oracle's aggressive Cloud strategy and growth means that several new PaaS capabilities are now available which are creating a breadth of new opportunities with our clients to take their current IT Systems to the Digital & Cloud market.

You will operate as a Data Migration Architect for our complex data migration projects, with a particular focus on large scale Oracle SaaS/PaaS/IaaS implementations.
