Infrastructure Architect / Microsoft / Azure / Cloud / M365

We're looking for an experienced Infrastructure Architect to help shape and evolve the technology landscape of a global organisation.

This is an opportunity to influence infrastructure strategy at enterprise scale, defining architecture that enables innovation while ensuring security, resilience and operational excellence. You'll work with senior technology leaders to establish standards, guide major transformation programmes and help modernise platforms across cloud and on-premise environments.

If you enjoy solving complex technical challenges, influencing architectural direction and enabling engineering teams to succeed, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

You'll act as the architectural authority across enterprise infrastructure, including:

Defining infrastructure architecture, principles, standards and technology roadmaps
Shaping Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365 strategy across a complex global environment
Leading architecture for hybrid cloud, identity, security and resilience
Supporting large-scale migration and modernisation programmes
Driving Infrastructure as Code, automation and platform engineering best practices
Providing architectural governance across cloud and on-premises platforms
Helping shape approaches to AI-enabled infrastructure, Microsoft Copilot and emerging Microsoft technologies
Influencing cloud cost optimisation (FinOps), operational efficiency and long-term technology strategy
Working closely with engineering, cyber security and enterprise applications teams to deliver scalable, secure platforms

We're interested in hearing from people who have experience with some of the following:

Enterprise infrastructure architecture within complex organisations
Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365
Hybrid cloud and on-premises infrastructure
Identity and access management (Entra ID / Azure AD)
Infrastructure governance, standards and architectural assurance
Cloud migration and transformation programmes
Infrastructure automation using Terraform, Bicep or ARM
Business continuity, disaster recovery and resilience planning
Working with enterprise platforms including Dynamics 365 and Power Platform

Professional certifications such as Azure Solutions Architect Expert, TOGAF or FinOps are welcomed, but they're not essential if you've gained equivalent experience through your career.

What's on offer

A highly visible architecture role with enterprise-wide impact
Opportunity to shape long-term cloud and infrastructure strategy
Hybrid working based in London
Exposure to modern Microsoft technologies, AI initiatives and large-scale transformation programmes
A collaborative environment where ideas are encouraged and innovation is valued

We know that no candidate ticks every box.

Research shows that some people are less likely to apply unless they meet every requirement. If this role excites you but your experience doesn't perfectly match every point above, we'd still encourage you to apply. We'd love to hear about the skills, experience and perspective you could bring.
