IT Cloud Lead
IT Cloud Lead
Be the true you
You will own the cloud strategy and compliance roadmap as an IT Cloud Lead and ensure all solutions meet enterprise standards while building a team. At Deloitte.
Benefits
- You will receive a profit-sharing bonus. On top of your fixed salary.
- Continue professional growth. Join our development program.
- A work-from-home office setup allowance to make sure you have everything you need for an ergonomically designed workstation and internet allowance.
- Work part-time (32 hours a week) or full-time (40-hours a week).
Be the true you
Naturally you constantly discover new ways to solve difficult problems and you know how to inspire others. But most importantly, be the true you. The one and only you. With your personal strengths, view of the world and unique personality. You need the following qualifications for the position of IT Cloud Lead:
- Technical: 8+ years IT experience, 5+ years hands-on cloud (Azure preferred), deep knowledge of networking, identity, storage, compute, PaaS, monitoring, and security. You understand architectural patterns and can design scalable, resilient, secure, cost-effective solutions.
- Leadership: 3+ years managing engineers (ideally 5+ for larger teams). You coach, give honest feedback, handle performance issues, and create psychological safety. You’ve worked in matrix organizations and influenced without direct authority.
- Mindset: You’ve navigated real trade-offs (speed vs. safety, cost vs. reliability). You’ve grown individual contributors into architects. You own outcomes, not just tasks. You’ve learned from failures and changed how you work.
For this position we do not offer visa sponsorship and/or relocation.
What impact will you make?
This role is ideal for an experienced cloud professional ready to step into strategic leadership. You'll act as the trusted technical soundboard, while fostering a culture of continuous learning and accountability.
This is a hands-on leadership position where you balance strategic vision with technical credibility, working closely with NSE Cloud, Global Services, and security teams to deliver secure, compliant, and cost-optimised cloud solutions
Let's make progress together
Connect your future to Deloitte
How do you do this?
- Own the Cloud Platform Strategy. Anticipate where the organization is heading (compliance regimes, cost pressures, technology shifts) and translate that into a realistic roadmap. Make trade-off decisions with incomplete information and defend them to stakeholders. Maintain the roadmap as a living document, not a 5-year plan carved in stone.
- Lead Engineers Through Complexity. Do 1:1s that matter—real conversations about what they’re struggling with and where they want to grow. Coach on design decisions, not just implementation. Give feedback that sticks. Handle performance issues directly. Create space for learning and exploration.
- Take Accountability for Reliability, Security & Cost. Own the SLOs. When uptime dips, you’re leading incident response and root-cause analysis. You understand IAM, network security, encryption, and logging. You monitor cloud spend like it’s your own money and can explain why your bill is what it is.
- Navigate the Matrix Without Direct Authority. Translate between worlds (dev teams speak speed, security speaks risk, finance speaks cost). Manage expectations ruthlessly. Push back constructively when needed. Coordinate across teams so everyone knows what’s happening.
- Define Standards That Stick. Create patterns for IaC, CI/CD, tagging, backup/DR, and access management. Make standards stick through education, not enforcement. When teams break the rules, understand why and adjust if needed.
- Manage Vendors and Platforms. Monitor SLAs and hold vendors accountable. Represent your domain in audits. Evaluate new tools against architecture, security, and cost. Build relationships, not just transactions.
We would like to meet you!
We are curious to know more about you. To learn what makes you exceptional. Because at Deloitte, we believe that our mutual differences add value to our client's needs. Please introduce yourself and apply for this great opportunity.

Step 1: Preparation
Step 2: CV and motivation
You can upload your CV and a motivation letter. We will send you a confirmation when we have received all your details.
Step 3: The assessment
When a recruiter sees enough of a match with your profile, we will ask you to complete an online assessment. By playing four online games, we can see which qualities and talents you possess and whether they align with the position you've applied for.
Step 4: The interview
Depending on the scores of the career scan, you will be invited for a first interview with the recruiter. The first interview is held with a recruiter and someone from the team. We are curious about who you are, what you have done and what you expect from a new job. We also give you more insight into what we are looking for and what the tasks are that belong to the position. If both parties would like to discuss it further, you will be invited for a next interview. In these conversations, we go deeper into the content. What is your talent and what skills do you manage? You can during one of the next interviews get a case study.
Step 5: The offer
When all conversations have been satisfactorily completed (for both parties), an offer will follow. The recruiter will draw up the contract for you which you will receive digitally.
