Company mission
To help organisations deliver high quality, innovative services that their customers will love.
Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for people who live and breathe cloud; not just delivering solutions, but constantly pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and finding better ways to do it
- You do not need active SC clearance as we will undertake checks upon you joining, but you must be eligible to pass SC clearance
- In future, DV clearance may be required, so the ability/willingness to pass DV clearance is advantageous but not essential
- You must be UK-based
What the job involves
- At Cloudscaler, you’ll be part of a consultancy at the forefront of cloud transformation, trusted by government, defence, and enterprise organisations to deliver complex AWS solutions that make a real national impact
- From modernising public services to securing critical infrastructure, the work you do will matter far beyond technology
- We combine the agility of a startup with the credibility of an AWS Advanced Partner, creating a high-trust, high-performance culture where self-starters thrive and every voice is heard
- You’ll work closely with senior leadership and cloud experts, shaping meaningful projects and driving innovation
- By joining us, you’ll accelerate your personal and professional development through hands-on experience with cutting-edge cloud solutions
- You’ll learn directly from experts while contributing to some of the UK’s most ambitious cloud programmes, gaining exposure and influence you wouldn’t find in a larger consultancy
- Shaping cloud and platform strategies for enterprise or public sector clients, aligning technology decisions with business objectives
- Establishing Cloud Centres of Excellence (CCoE), including operating models, RACI structures, and shared responsibility frameworks
- Designing and implementing cloud control frameworks, governance models, and risk/controls for secure and compliant operations
- Leading enterprise-wide cost optimisation, security, and observability strategies in complex AWS environments
- Defining and embedding Well Architected principles across large-scale organisations
- Advising senior stakeholders on cloud adoption, transformation, and operating model change, backed by a strong track record in cloud consulting and governance
- Developing cloud control frameworks, defining risks, controls, and ownership for guardrails
- Leading network strategy, managing RAM sharing and network performance monitoring

Our take
Founded in 2018 as Digital Dimensions, Cloudscaler delivers enterprise cloud platforms (ECPs). This helps businesses manage both business and client data, in order to streamline workflows and create efficient outcomes.
Delivering services such as cloud audits, cost optimisation and managed service, among others, Cloudscaler can serve a broad range of client needs. In 2021, it partnered with Santander, which was a huge milestone for the company and has supported its strong reputation and client acquisition.
The company also became an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner, furthering its credibility as a cloud platform provider. This status cemented its place in the market and sets the tone for an exciting future for Cloudscaler.
