Data Management Team Lead

Sanderson

London · England · United Kingdom

Flexible working: 3 days a week in the office

We’re looking for an experienced GCP Platform / Data Engineering Lead to take ownership of a newly implemented Google Cloud data platform and play a key role in its transition into BAU.

This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys working across cloud technology, data platforms, third parties and stakeholders, rather than sitting purely within a strategic architecture function.

The Role

  • Take technical ownership of a new GCP data platform, overseeing its transition from implementation into a stable BAU environment.
  • Work closely with managed service providers, developers, application and infrastructure teams to manage deployments, technical change, best practice and platform stability.
  • Provide technical oversight across a number of major transformation programmes, including Salesforce, Claims, Reinsurance and legacy platform modernisation, ensuring new data is successfully ingested into the GCP platform.
  • Coach and mentor team members developing their GCP capability, while providing task and matrix leadership across internal teams and third parties.
  • Act as a technical point of contact for senior stakeholders, with the ability to explain complex cloud and data concepts clearly without unnecessary technical detail.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong commercial experience working with Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Solid understanding of cloud infrastructure, deployments and data platforms.
  • Experience working with third-party suppliers / Managed Service Providers and overseeing technical delivery.
  • Experience with data ingestion, cloud data architecture and ideally Medallion architecture.
  • Exposure to Google Cloud Composer, Vertex AI or other GCP AI tooling would be highly desirable.
  • Strong communication skills with the confidence to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience of coaching, mentoring and working across multiple teams in a matrix environment.
