The posting

Join us, be part of more.

We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that’s energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels, whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently – we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it and mend it.

About your team:

At Centrica Energy, our mission is to move it.

We’re energy movers by nature. We’re a global renewable energy trading company which helps move energy from source to use – powering businesses, homes, and societies as they transition to a new sustainable energy future. If the idea of working to create a sustainable energy future also moves you, we may very well be the right place for you.

At Centrica, energy is what we do, but it’s not all we are. We’re 21,000 colleagues working together to create a greener, fairer future, changing how energy is made, stored, moved, sold and mended. It’s a place where you can find more purpose, passion and potential, because this really is #MoreThanACareer.

An opportunity to play your part - We’re looking for a Cloud Architect & DevOps Lead to help shape and strengthen how we deliver cloud and DevOps at Centrica Energy. Working across AWS and Azure, you’ll design secure, scalable and cost-effective infrastructure, develop advanced CI/CD pipelines, automate environments through Infrastructure as Code and ensure our cloud estate is effectively monitored, supported and optimised. You’ll also take the lead on DevOps practices, mentor junior engineers and work across technical and non-technical teams to keep delivery aligned with business goals. It’s a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys great cloud engineering, smart automation and bringing people together to get things done.

The Day to day –

  • Design and maintain scalable, secure and cost-optimised multi-cloud solutions using AWS and Azure, evaluating and integrating emerging cloud technologies.
  • Implement advanced CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, AWS CodePipeline, Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD and GitHub Actions, incorporating testing, monitoring and rollback mechanisms.
  • Create and manage Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, CloudFormation, Azure Resource Manager (ARM) and Ansible, automating provisioning across development, testing and production.
  • Establish advanced monitoring and alerting using AWS CloudWatch and Azure Monitor, define incident response strategies, conduct root cause analysis and provide P1/P2 support for critical infrastructure.
  • Develop and enforce security practices covering IAM policies, encryption and Centrica-defined standards, conducting periodic security reviews and audits while supporting cost optimisation and efficient resource utilisation.
  • Lead DevOps practices across teams, providing guidance to junior engineers and establishing consistent standards, best practices and processes.
  • Collaborate with developers, QA and operations to align with business goals, communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders, and apply strong problem-solving skills in a fast-paced environment.

What does great look like ?

  • Bring significant cloud architecture and DevOps engineering experience, ideally gained within Commodity Trading, Investment Banking or Financial Services environments.
  • Demonstrate proven leadership experience within DevOps and/or cloud infrastructure roles.
  • Apply deep expertise across AWS and Azure, supported by relevant certifications such as AWS/Azure Solutions Architect, Kubernetes Certified Administrator (CKA) or DevOps Engineer Professional.
  • Show strong Infrastructure as Code (IaC) capability, with hands-on experience using Terraform, CloudFormation and Ansible.
  • Bring practical experience with DevOps and CI/CD tooling, including Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD and GitHub Actions.
  • Use excellent problem-solving skills to work effectively and confidently in a fast-paced environment.
  • Communicate with impact, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.

What's in it for you?

  • Enjoy a generous market salary, along with fantastic growth opportunities and a vibrant work environment!
  • Added Car Allowance program to make your commute and adventures even better.
  • Power up your pay with a 15% Employee Energy Allowance, surpassing the government's price cap!
  • Secure your future with our comprehensive pension plan, designed for peace of mind.
  • Elevate your health with our fully-funded company healthcare plan, prioritizing your well-being.
  • Recharge with a generous 25-day holiday allowance, plus public holidays, and even purchase up to 5 extra days for extended relaxation!
  • Experience unparalleled work-life balance with an exceptional selection of flexible benefits, from tech treats and eco-friendly car leases to travel insurance for your adventures!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
