Principal Cloud Product Consultant

At DigiRen we passionately believe that cloud is the best place to get work done. Founded by industry experts, DigiRen is a specialised consultancy focused on helping large commercial and public sector organisations build and scale new capabilities and ways of working to fully realise the benefit of public cloud computing.

Through decades of combined experience, we know that success in cloud computing is less about the technology, and more about understanding and managing an organisations adoption of new tools, processes and ways of working. It is essential that Cloud is not established as a technological island within an organisation, but integrated and seen as a catalyst to evolve a range of functions within Group IT.

We are vendor agnostic, possess a deep understanding of hyperscale cloud technologies, but anchor our engagements on the orchestration of change and the delivery of strategic outcomes. We are trusted advisors to our customers, helping them build new organisational capabilities, become self-sufficient, and take control of their cloud journey.

DigiRen operates a flat, highly collaborative and supportive working environment. Our focus on people drives our company culture. We are an inclusive team that nurtures our people for the long term. We value diversity of experience and anyone who can drive outcomes that deliver value to our customers; DigiRen is a community that enables great work and accelerated learning. The DigiRen team works remotely and offers flexible work models to support an effective work/life balance. We support professional development and have a deep commitment to the health and wellbeing of our team supported by world-class wellness programs and initiatives.
