Milton Keynes | Hybrid, 2 days in the office | £60,000 to £65,000 A senior engineering role at a global data and AI consultancy, joining a small UK team just as a new Snowflake project gets going. You’d be the one shaping the build, guiding the engineers around you and earning the client’s trust. • A new Snowflake project to lead from the start.

Allica is the UK's fastest growing company - and the fastest-growing financial technology (Fintech) firm ever. Our purpose is to help established SMEs, one of the last major underserved opportunities in Fintech. Established SMEs are the backbone of local communities - representing over a third of our economy - yet have been largely neglected both by traditional high street banks and modern fintech providers. Platform Engineering is the centralised team that builds, provisions and runs the infrastructure every other engineering team at Allica depends on. Whether a product serves a business banking customer or a colleague inside the bank, it lands on a platform this team designed. The team owns both halves of that, building the platform and running it, against the availability and resilience standards a regulated bank is held to. Well-architected is the operating standard, not an aspiration: reliability, security, cost and operational excellence are design inputs from the start. The job is to make the right thing the easy thing, through paved roads, self-service provisioning, sensible defaults, and controls encoded in the platform rather than bolted on afterwards. Every control the platform enforces is one a product team does not have to think about, and one we can evidence on demand. Role Description The Lead Platform Engineer is the senior technical leader for a core domain of Allica's platform. You set its technical direction, you are accountable for how it behaves in production, and you build it yourself. This is a hands‑on role. Expect to spend a real share of your week in infrastructure as code, pipelines and live systems, and the rest setting standards, reviewing designs and making the calls that are too consequential to delegate. Your customers are internal. Product engineering and data engineering choose whether to use what you build, so adoption and the friction you remove are the measures that matter. Own the architecture of Allica's Cloud platform: landing zones, subscriptions and network topology, container runtime, and the integration and resilience patterns that sit on top. Design again Cloud Adoption Framework and Well-Architected Framework as working disciplines. Build the reusable core: Terraform modules, deployment templates and platform services that let a team stand up production-grade infrastructure without reinventing the security, networking and observability plumbing each time. Deliver and manage all infrastructure through Terraform and secure CI/CD, so that every change is automated, repeatable, version-controlled, tested, and reversible. Drive manual change and configuration drift towards zero. Set and evolve engineering standards for the function: code quality, peer review, policy as code and, release management. Embed security, governance, and compliance throughout the platform lifecycle, implementing effective policies, access controls, encryption, vulnerability management, monitoring, and configuration standards. Collaborate with Allica's Security, Engineering, Risk, and Compliance teams to ensure platforms meet organisational, regulatory, and control requirements, supported by clear documentation and auditable evidence. Identify and manage architectural risks, security vulnerabilities, control gaps, and technical debt, ensuring remediation actions are prioritised, tracked, and completed. Own availability, reliability, and run cost for the platform, backed by service objectives, monitoring you can operate from, and tested recovery arrangements. Lead the response to complex incidents, own the root-cause analysis, drive out repeat causes rather than repeat fixes. Use service data, operational experience, and FinOps practices to continuously improve platform automation, resilience, engineering standards, cost visibility, forecasting, and resource optimisation. Lead, mentor, and develop a team of platform engineers while remaining personally hands‑on in architecture, design reviews, and the hardest technical problems. Set the technical bar and raise it, through coaching, design review and the example of your own work. A strong track record architecting, and running production Azure environments at scale. Fluent in landing zone and subscription design, private networking, containerised compute, API management and resilience patterns across zones and regions. Extensive hands‑on experience with cloud infrastructure at scale, infrastructure as code, containerised runtimes, identity and observability. Has carried production accountability for systems that matter. Comfortable in handling incidents. Treats developer experience as a product. Talks to engineering teams, watches how they actually work and designs for adoption rather than mandate. Treats regulatory and security requirements as engineering constraints to design around, not obstacles to route past. Prior regulated or high‑assurance experience helps but is not a prerequisite. Gets adoption by building things engineers want to use and by making a clear case, not by escalation. Prefers the boring, well‑understood solution unless the problem genuinely demands otherwise. Willing to remove things. Architecture or engineering experience with Google Cloud Platform. Experience working in complex, regulated, or security-sensitive environments. Knowledge of Kubernetes, container platforms, serverless services, and cloud‑native application patterns. Experience with Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or comparable CI/CD technologies. Familiarity with FinOps, operational resilience, regulatory compliance, and cloud‑control frameworks. Relevant Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Terraform, security, or architecture certifications. At Allica Bank we want to ensure our employees have the right tools and environment in which to succeed in their role and in support of our customers. Our employees are at the heart of everything we do, so our benefits are designed with you in mind: Full onboarding support and continued development opportunities Options for flexible working Regular social activities Pension contributions Discretionary bonus scheme Private health cover Life assurance Family friendly policies including enhanced Maternity & Paternity leave Don't worry if you don't have all the skills or requirements listed on the job description. If you think you'll be a good fit, we'd still love to hear from you! We know the '9-to-5' isn't right for everyone. That's why Allica Bank is fully committed to flexible and hybrid working. Please let us know what is best for you and, if we can, we will do our best to accommodate. We're a diverse bunch here at Allica, with all kinds of experiences, backgrounds and lifestyles.

WD-40 Company is rolling out a new ERP platform across its global markets, and we need a Finance domain expert to help us get it right. Not a button-pusher. Not a ticket-taker. A thinker who owns the Finance process stream — someone who can walk into a room with stakeholders from multiple countries, understand how they work, map the gap between where they are and where they need to be, and co-design a solution that actually sticks. This is a newly created dedicated role — WD-40 has reached the point in its global ERP journey where this function needs its own owner. You will have a thorough handover from the internal colleague who built this function and will ensure you successfully hit the ground running. You'll be embedded in a global implementation team, working alongside an Implementation Specialist as a true partner — you bring the Finance expertise, they bring the system architecture. Together, you'll shape how WD-40 handles its financial processes worldwide. This role offers the flexibility of working a hybrid schedule between your home and our office in Milton Keynes, UK (minimum 2 days in office per week). This role requires UK work authorization. Visa sponsorship is not available. During implementation, your days will include: • Leading and co‑leading requirements workshops and fit‑gap sessions with finance stakeholders across multiple countries and regions, • Translating country‑specific business realities into clean, scalable process designs that hold up globally, • Partnering with the Implementation Specialist to build solutions that maximise standard functionality and minimise expensive customisation, • Owning the Finance process documentation — future‑state design, functional specs, and SOPs, • Building and executing test scripts; reviewing results and driving fixes before go‑live, • Creating training materials and leading sessions for the teams who will live in these processes every day, • Supporting hyper‑care through go‑live — you're not dropping the baton at cutover, • Providing process enhancement design and escalation support for countries already live on the platform The best candidate we've ever seen for this type of role didn't come in waving a software certification. They came in with deep finance knowledge, asked the sharpest questions in workshops, and left every session with stakeholders feeling heard and confident. They could spot a process gap before the system could, and they co‑created solutions rather than just documenting requirements. That's the bar. • 7–10 years of Finance process expertise across Record‑to‑Report (RTR) — GL, AP, AR, Fixed Assets, Cost Accounting, Financial Reporting, Budgeting, Cash Management, or similar, • Meaningful experience operating across multiple countries or regions — you understand that tax structures, regulatory requirements, and ways of doing business are not interchangeable, and you've navigated that complexity in practice, • Experience contributing to an ERP implementation (as a business analyst, process owner, SME, or similar) — you know what a fit‑gap workshop is and how to run one, • Comfort working across time zones and with geographically dispersed stakeholder teams, • Ability to hold your ground in a room: you'll work with senior stakeholders who have strong opinions, • UK work authorisation (visa sponsorship is not available), • Travel: Some international travel required during implementation phases, • Experience with e‑invoicing in European, Latin American, or Asian markets, • Familiarity with European VAT schemes and/or tax compliance in Brazil or Japan — both are active rollout markets, • Consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry background — relevant domain knowledge travels, • ERP experience in any major platform (D365, SAP, Oracle, or equivalent) — the tool matters less than your ability to translate business processes into system logic, • Comfort with EDI transaction flows Our competitive and comprehensive benefits package provides you with protection, security, and peace of mind. We offer life‑enhancing health, wellness, and financial programs, including profit incentive rewards, healthcare, and generous pension contributions. In addition, we want you to recharge and take time off, so enjoy short‑day Fridays, paid holidays, and an additional paid week off between Christmas and New year to spend with family and friends! You’ll join WD‑40 Company’s global ERP implementation team — a group that takes implementation seriously and doesn't treat go‑live as the finish line. Your hiring manager leads with high standards and gives her team real ownership. The UK office is collaborative and values some face time — you'll be expected to come in, especially early on, and will have the flexibility to work in a hybrid environment. WD‑40 Company has 94% employee engagement globally. People who join tend to stay, and they tend to be proud of it. If you've ever worn a WD‑40 jacket in public, you already know why. At WD‑40 Company we foster a culture of inclusion where all individuals are recognized, valued, respected, and experience a sense of belonging. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to individual characteristics that make us unique such as our backgrounds, experiences, qualities, talents, traits, beliefs, and preferences. #J-18808-Ljbffr
