Reigate Surrey, United Kingdom Willis Towers Watson Full time

Our industry is currently experiencing unprecedented innovation thanks to advances in big-data analytics, distributed super-computing and real-time cloud services. Willis Towers Watson continuously strives to be at the forefront of this revolution with its Insurance Consulting and Technology (ICT) business. Now is therefore the perfect opportunity to become part of ICT and join a global and growing organisation. We are developing world-class leading-edge risk analytics solutions and financial modelling software which enables over 1,000 major insurance clients worldwide as well as many of the largest financial services companies.

How do insurance companies manage risks when the future is unpredictable? How do they ensure they have enough resources to cover potential losses and prepare for various uncertainties? The answer is to develop financial models using our world leading modelling software. These models are time critical but computationally very intensive requiring huge amounts of compute power and may generate terabytes of data, and so every bit of performance and optimisations count.

Does solving challenging problems and finding innovative solutions excite you? Do you want to work for a company with strong values and ethics? We embody principles such as inclusion, diversity and social responsibility.

Do you enjoy collaborating with various stakeholders while working with a highly talented and outcome driven team?

Does this sound like a team you want to be part of? Then we are looking for a hands’ on experienced cloud solution architect to join our friendly, agile teams based in Reigate, UK.

  • Analyse and present suitable, high-performance solutions targeting Azure.
  • Convert and document high level system design to low level solution design.
  • Conduct PoC’s using the latest technologies and present the findings to technical and non- technical audiences.
