## About the Role

* Microsoft Databricks

 * Power BI
 * Administration and operational support of Azure data platforms

You'll also ideally have experience with:

 * Experience working within secure or highly regulated environments

## Description

Hybrid working (2 days p/week onsite near Cardiff for the first month then 1 day onsite p/month thereafter)

Budgets are tight at £300 - £400 p/day (ideally closer to the £300 mark) but this has been determined as Outside IR35 if that helps (we can still pay through an umbrella of course if you prefer that)

We're recruiting a Cloud Data Platform Specialist to support the operation, administration and ongoing development of a modern Microsoft Azure data platform.

This isn't a Data Scientist role. We're looking for someone with a strong operational and platform administration background who can manage, support and improve enterprise cloud data services.
