DevOps Business Transformation Consultant

We're looking for a highly motivated and skilled DevOps Business Transformation Consultant to join our team, working with a leading FinTech client in London. This isn't a traditional technical DevOps role; it's a strategic position where you'll be the crucial link between business strategy and technical implementation. You'll use your deep understanding of DevOps principles and methodology to drive business outcomes, optimise delivery pipelines, and ensure seamless communication across all levels of the organisation.

What You'll Do:

• You will serve as the primary liaison between our clients and the offshore development team. A core responsibility will be to effectively elicit business requirements from clients and translate them into clear, actionable technical specifications for our engineers.
• Take ownership of the project delivery lifecycle, managing development teams to ensure they deliver on client needs. You'll lead the methodology and approach, leading from the front defining what good looks like, and providing the technical guidance necessary for successful integration and implementation, and communicating progression updates to clients.
• Collaborate with a wide range of internal and external partners, including IT infrastructure and hosting teams. You'll need to influence and align internal teams on priorities to ensure project success.
• Maintain brilliant communication, providing regular, clear updates and key alerts to management. Your ability to distill complex information into concise reports will be critical.
• I dentify bottlenecks and opportunities for improvement in DevOps workflows, including CI/CD pipelines, automation, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and security protocols.
• Thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where the answers aren't always predefined. You'll need to be comfortable with ambiguity and have the confidence to make your mark by owning and leading the process from start to finish.

Requirements

• 4+ years in a Business Analysis, Technical Project Management, or DevOps-focused role, preferably within a technology-driven company or InsurTech environment.
• A strong understanding of core DevOps principles and cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Familiarity with containerisation technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD tools (e.g., Git, Jenkins). You must be able to clearly explain these concepts to non-technical stakeholders and lead with technical confidence.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to elicit requirements from clients and navigate conversations with both technical engineers and senior executives.
• A desire to take ownership and lead, with a proven ability to influence stakeholders and drive internal teams to deliver on priorities.
• An ability to adapt to the different needs and styles of various clients, as well as internal stakeholders / teams, and strength to maintain the direction of travel throughout
• Hands-on experience with tools like Jira, Confluence, Terraform, and scripting languages such as Python or Bash.
• A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Business, or a related field.

Benefits

• Salary: £60k per annum
• Employment Type: Permanent, with an opportunity to go permanent at the client after 12 months
• Company: G MASS Consulting
• Impact: This role offers a unique opportunity to own and lead a process from the ground up, making a significant impact that you might not find in a larger, more structured organisation.
