You will work with a high degree of autonomy, driving initiatives forward, contributing to quarterly planning, and influencing stakeholders at all levels.

  • Strong hands-on expertise with CI/CD tooling, including SAST, DAST and software composition analysis
  • Experience working with cloud platforms (primarily Microsoft Azure) and Azure DevOps pipelines
  • Practical knowledge of infrastructure-as-code, particularly Terraform, including security scanning and policy-as-code
  • Experience securing containerised environments and Kubernetes workloads

The first stage is typically conducted virtually and the second stage typically in person at the office in which the role would be based. However, we strive to remain flexible depending on the requirements of the role or the candidate.  

Our strength lies in our differences.

We are a top Stonewall employer, a Valuable 500 member, a signatory of the Race at Work Charter and a proud partner of Neurodiversity in Law. We encourage and value different ideas and styles of thinking. It’s with different perspectives that we’ll find solutions to our clients’ most complex challenges. It’s how we’ll deliver outstanding results today, and tomorrow. We want everybody attending an interview to be comfortable and able to fully demonstrate their experience and talents.  We want to build truly inclusive and diverse teams to get the best results and deliver the best service.
