  • Lead end-to-end migration of structured and unstructured data to GCP (including Cloud Storage), preserving metadata and permissions, with reconciliation and post-migration verification
  • Design migration approaches, plan waves, manage dependencies and risks, and produce runbooks, cutover plans and rollback procedures
  • Deliver migration-readiness, operational, executive, governance and compliance reporting via Power BI and DAX
  • Establish engineering standards and coordinate delivery across business, infrastructure, security and application teams

What you'll bring

  • Advanced PowerShell for enterprise-scale data discovery and automation
  • Strong SQL Server capability, including data modelling, stored procedures, optimisation and reconciliation
  • Proven SSIS/ETL experience
  • End-to-end cloud migration delivery experience, ideally to GCP
