2 days per week onsite
We’re supporting a major UK organisation with the urgent hire of three experienced Cloud Data Engineers for an immediate project within a large-scale data and technology environment.

• Proven experience designing, building and supporting data platforms and pipelines
• Ability to clearly demonstrate what you personally owned and delivered
• Experience working with business or front-office stakeholders
• Strong technical judgement – comfortable challenging approaches and explaining your technology decisions
• AWS and Snowflake experience highly desirable
• Experience within large or complex organisations beneficial
• Asset Management / Financial Services experience is useful
Location: Birmingham or Telford – ideally 2 days per week onsite
Rate: £650–£750 per day
Duration: 6 months initially, with potential extension
Start: ASAP / early September
We’re moving quickly and expect interviews to take place imminently.
