ICT – Driving Technological Transformation
Are you a skilled Cloud Engineer passionate about delivering secure, scalable, and innovative cloud services? We’re looking for someone to join our Cloud Operations Team to support and evolve our Microsoft cloud platforms, with a core focus on Entra ID and Microsoft 365 services.
We are a collaborative and high-performing team committed to providing efficient and reliable cloud solutions that meet the evolving needs of our organisation. We value teamwork, continuous improvement, and a supportive working culture.
In this role, your primary responsibilities will centre around managing identity and access through Entra ID, alongside supporting and optimising core Microsoft 365 services such as Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive. You’ll play a key role in ensuring these platforms remain secure, stable, and aligned with organisational needs.
Additionally, this role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development infrastructure support of our Power Platform environment, including Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power BI.
You may also work with Azure Infrastructure and use PowerShell scripting to automate tasks and streamline operations. A strong understanding of networking, cloud security, and compliance is essential.
This role requires on-site presence in Trowbridge one to two days per week, with flexibility to work remotely for the remainder.
If you’re ready to apply your cloud engineering expertise in a public sector environment that values collaboration and innovation, we’d love to hear from you.
