Summary
The HCS team design, build and run all our hosting infrastructure including Public Cloud and On-Premises hosting. We’re helping product and service owners to transition to the Cloud.
The strategy for HCS is to implement a ‘Digital by Default’ approach. We will do this by providing an end-to-end ‘multi-cloud’ hosted service for our Product Development Units. We’ll be providing a securely connected hosting service which removes DWP’s reliance on traditional hosting solutions and contracts.
To ensure our success, we are standardising, simplifying and automating, together with developing processes, training and tools to accelerate our delivery.
Please note this role requires you to pass Security Check clearance. For further information, please see 'Selection process details'.

We ensure that we’re aligned to the Department's Technical Reference Architecture (TRA) and Security and Compliance Standards in all stages of development and delivery.
This is an exciting time to be part of what is effectively an enterprise-scale tech company in the heart of government.
The role and responsibilities include:
- Support the design and implementation of Public Cloud infrastructure services/solutions to meet strategic plans and roadmaps.
- Responsible for operational management of Public Cloud hosted technologies, products, and services, with a focus on security, availability, resilience, and performance.
