We take a consultative approach to recruitment, working closely with both clients and candidates to understand the technical, commercial, and cultural factors behind every successful hire.

By focusing on a specialist niche, we aim to provide a more informed, targeted, and effective recruitment service for the cloud consultancy ecosystem.

Why Cloud Architecture Hiring Is Hard

Hiring experienced Cloud Solutions Architects is one of the biggest challenges facing AWS and Azure consultancies today.

Great architects are responsible for designing scalable cloud platforms, guiding engineering teams, and supporting successful project delivery. They need to balance deep technical expertise with strong communication skills, client-facing confidence, and commercial awareness.

This combination is rare.

Many organisations find that traditional job adverts attract candidates with strong engineering backgrounds but limited experience leading architecture decisions or client workshops.

At the same time, the best architects are often already employed and not actively searching for new roles.

That’s why successful cloud consultancies rely on specialist recruitment partners who understand the cloud ecosystem and can connect them with proven architecture talent.
