We are open to hearing from contractors as well as perm candidates, we would particularly like to hear from candidates that are Security Cleared and from contractors that are happy to work inside IR35. But if you don't tick either of those boxes please don't let that stop you from applying.

At Content+Cloud we help our clients to succeed and to transform the way their businesses operate, the way their users work, and provide them with flexible and secure platforms with which to do it.

Our portfolio of Professional and Managed Services enables our clients to truly leverage the power of Microsoft’s three clouds: Microsoft 365, Azure and Dynamics 365.

As our reputation has grown over the years, we’ve been able to attract exceptionally talented individuals. Whether they are a world-renowned technology specialist or a highly skilled member of a 24/7support team, all our people are driven by a desire to deliver success for our clients.

Our Technical Consultants have deep expertise in Office 365 (particularly SharePoint Online and/or Exchange Online) and the Microsoft identity ecosystem. Design, implementation and migration experience with these technologies is essential, along with a passion for Microsoft technology. A working knowledge of Microsoft Teams and/or Skype for Business is preferred but not essential.

The successful candidate can expect to be exposed to the broader Microsoft 365 suite, including security and compliance technologies available within the Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) suite.

Specifically, we are looking for a consultant specialising in Modern Workplace including Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams and preferably some Teams phone system experience.

We are open to contractors as well as perm candidates, however there is a strong preference for Security Cleared candidates and for contractors that happy to work inside IR35.Plearing fr
