Desirable: Microsoft SC-300 or a similar certification, and experience in financial services.

Benefits

Day rate of £550 to £650, depending on experience.

Contract role through your own limited company. We expect it to fall outside IR35, and we confirm this before you start.

Work alongside a senior delivery lead on a regulated client.
