Overview
We’re working with a specialist consultancy delivering a high-profile engagement for a critical infrastructure client, and we're seeking a Security Architect with deep hands-on experience in Azure cloud security and migration from on-premise (VMware) environments.
This role is ideal for a technically driven architect who enjoys designing and implementing secure cloud solutions, working directly with engineering teams, and helping organisations evolve from legacy infrastructure to modern, cloud-native platforms.

* Define and deliver security blueprints, HLDs, and LLDs for cloud adoption and transformation
* Collaborate with engineering teams on secure deployment pipelines, network security, and access controls
* Configure and optimise tooling such as Microsoft Defender, Sentinel, Palo Alto, Splunk, and SentinelOne
* Act as the technical lead on threat modelling, identity and access architecture, and cloud governance
* Provide hands-on support across security design, implementation, and troubleshooting
* Work with business and technical stakeholders to align security architecture with business needs and compliance requirements
What You’ll Bring
* Strong hands-on background in Azure cloud security and infrastructure architecture
* Experience with on-prem to cloud migrations, especially from VMware-based environments
* Familiarity with cloud-native security tools, SIEM/SOAR, and endpoint protection platforms
* Ability to produce and present technical designs and artefacts to architecture boards
* Previous work in regulated or critical infrastructure environments is a plus
* SC clearance eligible – must be a British Citizen from birth
Why This Role?
* Join a major, long-term programme shaping the security landscape of a critical client
* Be at the centre of a large-scale Azure migration with real influence and ownership
* Work in a technically capable, supportive team within a consultancy known for delivery excellence
* Competitive salary and long-term role stability in a mission-driven environment
