Role: Senior Data Engineer / Data Architect

Salary: Up to £85,000, plus £5,000 annual bonus

Technology - Azure Platform, DataBricks, PowerBI

Location: Warrington

Working Pattern: Hybrid - 2 days a week in the office.

The Role:

This is a great new role for either a Senior Data Engineer, wanting to make a step towards architecture, or, a hand's on data architect who is still very much a do'er.

You will be the Data Engineer / Architect for the business so this is a design and execute role, you will need to be happy to roll sleeves up and do some technical work alongside ownership of the architecture piece. The system is large, the company is a global business and there systems are already in a good shape, this is not like some roles I have seen where "everything is in a mess and we need someone to fix" - everything her is in place for the successful person to deliver.

In addition to the MS Technologies, they also have Salesforce and SAP in the business and a large amount of data is moved and out of those systems so experience in this area would definitely be an advantage.

This role is high profile, we are looking for someone to work with SLT, board members and international stakeholders. You will need to be confident and comfortable engaging in conversations and high level decision making.

Please note - this is not a remote position, it is hybrid in the office, 2 days a week but there is quite a lot of flexibility to that.

Responsibilities:

  • Own and evolve the enterprise data architecture - defining data models, integration patterns, and standards that scale with the business.
  • Design secure, resilient data solutions across cloud and on-premises environments, ensuring they are fit for purpose today and adaptable for tomorrow.
  • Act as the bridge between business stakeholders, analytics teams, and engineering - translating commercial requirements into robust, well-reasoned architectural designs.
  • Set the standard for data governance, data quality, metadata management, and master data management - and hold the organisation to it.
  • Ensure all data practices meet security, privacy, and regulatory obligations, proactively identifying and mitigating compliance risk.
  • Provide architectural leadership and assurance across data programmes, guiding teams to make the right design decisions at every stage.
  • Assess, recommend, and champion the right data technologies, tools, and platforms - balancing innovation with pragmatism.
  • Lead and support data migration, modernisation, and transformation initiatives, bringing structure and clarity to complex change.
  • Produce clear, consistent documentation of data architectures, models, and design decisions that serve as a lasting reference for the organisation.
  • Identify opportunities to commercialise data insights through automation and process efficiency - turning data into measurable business value.
  • Align data architecture with global systems requirements and regulatory evolution, ensuring enabling technology delivers maximum business impact.

Requirements:

  • Azure Environment
  • Strong, well - rounded data engineering skillset.

Where to Advertise Cloud Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise cloud computing jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach AWS, Azure, GCP and cloud-native engineering talent. The candidate pool is large relative to other deep tech disciplines but highly segmented — cloud architects, DevOps engineers, platform engineers, FinOps specialists and cloud security professionals each occupy distinct communities with different job search behaviours, certification profiles and salary expectations. General job boards reach a broad audience but struggle to differentiate between these disciplines, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist cloud roles. This guide, published by CloudComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise cloud computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Cloud Computing Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cloud Computing Jobs UK 2026: salaries, hiring trends and the AWS, Azure and GCP skills shaping UK cloud careers over the next three years. Cloud computing is the infrastructure layer on which the modern digital economy runs — and the jobs market that has grown around it is one of the largest, most sustained, and most structurally resilient in the entire technology sector. But the cloud computing jobs market of 2026 looks quite different from the one that existed three years ago, and the next three years will bring further change at a pace that rewards those who understand the direction of travel. The migration phase that defined cloud hiring for much of the previous decade is largely complete for enterprise organisations. The question for most UK businesses is no longer whether to move to the cloud but how to operate, optimise, and secure what they have already built there — and how to integrate the wave of AI capability that is now being delivered primarily through cloud infrastructure. That shift has profound implications for which cloud skills are in demand, which roles are growing, and which are beginning to plateau. At the same time, new architectural patterns — multi-cloud, cloud-native, serverless, and the growing integration of edge computing with centralised cloud infrastructure — are creating entirely new categories of specialist expertise that employers are actively competing to hire. The cloud computing jobs market of 2026 is not contracting. It is evolving, and evolving in ways that create significant opportunity for job seekers who are building the right skills. This article breaks down what the UK cloud computing jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
