Job Purpose:

As a Senior Cloud & Data Security Architect, you will be a recognised technical leader and trusted advisor, shaping security strategy and delivering innovative security solutions for enterprise customers. Acting as a senior escalation point and subject matter expert, you will bridge the gap between technical implementation and business outcomes, influencing stakeholders at all levels by translating complex security risks into clear, actionable business decisions.

Working within a Microsoft-centric Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP), you will lead the design, implementation, and optimisation of cloud, data, and AI security solutions across Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, and the wider Microsoft Security portfolio. You will help customers strengthen their security posture through the adoption of modern security architectures, Zero Trust principles, data protection strategies, and advanced threat defence capabilities.

This is a highly visible role combining strategic consulting, technical leadership, solution architecture, and customer engagement. You will lead workshops, guide transformation programmes, and work directly with technical teams, security leaders, and executive stakeholders to deliver secure, resilient, and compliant cloud environments.

As a senior member of the consulting practice, you will remain at the forefront of Microsoft innovation, evaluating emerging technologies, preview capabilities, and next-generation security controls. Experience in securing and governing AI-driven solutions, including Copilot, Security Copilot, Generative AI applications, and agentic AI workflows, will be highly advantageous as organisations increasingly adopt autonomous and AI-assisted technologies.

Using a combination of hands-on expertise, architectural vision, and industry best practice, you will help customers solve complex security challenges across cloud, data, identity, and AI domains. You will collaborate closely with sales, service delivery, engineering, and Microsoft teams to create secure outcomes that enable business growth while managing risk.

This role offers the opportunity to work with enterprise-scale organisations, influence security strategy, and shape the future of cloud, data, and AI security in a rapidly evolving technology landscape.
