Senior Project Manager - Cloud Services

Company Description

Sopra Steria is Europe’s leading digital solutions provider, with over 56,000 employees in 30 countries. People drive the change we need to see, so we put people at the heart of everything we do. With our focus on holistic solutions, expertise across business areas, independence and teamwork, we’re powering Europe’s digital transformation and building a positive future for all. The world is how we shape it, so let’s shape it together.

Job Description

The sky’s the limit with cloud computing, so you’ll need to use skills of virtualisation, containerisation, and orchestration using tools like Kubernetes and Docker to design, deploy, and manage cloud-based solutions. We pride ourselves on our secure, compliant, efficient and well-optimised cloud solutions. You’ll feel at home working with cloud-native development, serverless architectures, and DevOps practices. To take cloud adoption to its fullest extent, you’ll use your analytical and governance skills, problem-solving abilities, and cross-functional team collaboration to drive innovation and efficiency in cloud environments.

For our clients to make the most of the software solutions they’ve purchased, our Project Managers must understand and anticipate their wants and needs. Working between clients and internal teams means you’ll need good communication skills and take the long view when it comes to strategic planning, all the while making sure all details align with the client’s specifications. Taking a proactive approach means using original thinking to identify client needs and gleaning insight from complex client interactions. Meeting client needs may involve a larger than usual workload and your ability to manage it will be just as crucial as your ability to exercise analytical thinking and solve problems as they arise.

Qualifications

We’re seeking passionate colleagues who are eager to push the boundaries in digital transformation and technology consulting. At Sopra Steria, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your skills in a constructive, collaborative team environment, working on impactful projects that drive change for our clients. If you thrive on challenge and meet (most of) the qualifications below, we look forward to your application!

• Location: European Union
• Contract hours: 40 hours
