Cloud Security Recruitment
Cloud security is now the fastest-growing specialism in cyber. We place cloud security architects and engineers who bridge the gap between security and DevSecOps, working across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments in financial services, technology, and critical infrastructure.
The market
Cloud adoption has outpaced the development of cloud security skills. Most organisations have migrated significant workloads to cloud environments without the security controls to match, creating urgent demand for professionals who understand both the cloud platform and the threat landscape. Cloud security architects with multi-cloud experience are among the most in-demand professionals across the entire cyber market.
Roles we recruit

- Cloud Security Engineer
- DevSecOps Engineer
- Cloud CISO
- AWS / Azure Security Specialist
- Cloud Governance Lead
- Security Platform Engineer

Experience and skills
Cloud security professionals typically develop from either a cloud engineering or a security engineering background. The most effective candidates have hands-on cloud platform experience (not just theoretical) combined with a security architecture mindset. Those who have delivered secure cloud migrations or built security controls into CI/CD pipelines are particularly sought after.
