Hire by role

Hire cloud engineers in the UK

What cloud engineers are paid, what to name in the advert, and who you are up against — from the adverts on Cloud Computing Jobs, not a survey. Looking for the roles themselves? See Cloud Engineer jobs.

What you will pay

£40k to £90k, most around £62k

The range employers advertised for cloud engineers on Cloud Computing Jobs over the last 12 months, base salary only, across 189 priced adverts. Adverts that state a salary get more applications than those that hide it, and a figure at or above the midpoint is the single cheapest thing you can do for the response.

Remote or anchored

A fully remote role draws the whole country and can pay a little under the London figure; an anchored one competes locally and cannot.
Greenfield or inherited

Building from nothing is worth more to the right person than running what exists, and they will ask which it is.
Someone senior to learn from

A strong lead in the team is worth thousands on the offer; without one, expect to pay for that experience directly.
