Remarkable Jobs are recruiting on behalf of a dynamic, growing IT services provider.
We are seeking an IT Solutions Consultant – Migration to join their remote team. This is a hands-on technical role, ideal for someone with strong analytical skills and a good understanding of enterprise network environments, even if they haven't directly managed them.

IT Solutions Consultant – Migration Role:
As an IT Solutions Consultant – Migration, you will be part of a close-knit professional services team delivering email archive migration projects. You will receive full training on the tools and processes used by the business, and work under the guidance of a senior mentor to build your confidence and capability in this specialist area.

This position would suit someone with around 2 years’ experience in an IT support or IT services environment — someone who is naturally curious, eager to learn, and confident enough to trust their own technical judgement while knowing when to draw on the expertise of others. You should have a genuine interest in understanding how a full project lifecycle works — from initial scoping and design to rollout and delivery — and a desire to eventually run projects independently. Familiarity with Migrator software or similar tools will be a strong advantage.

IT Solutions Consultant – Migration Career opportunities:

This is an excellent opportunity to join a small but growing business, where your input will have a visible impact. As you develop, you’ll take on more responsibility with a clear path to owning and leading your own client projects — from initial discussions through to solution design and full implementation.

Participate in pre-sales technical calls and host design workshops
Create and maintain design and reporting documentation

Confident using own initiative while knowing when to ask for support
Reliable and self-motivated when working remotely
Detail-oriented with a methodical approach
Strong team player with excellent communication skills

How Many Data Engineering Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Engineering Job?

If you’re aiming for a career in data engineering, it can feel like you’re staring at a never-ending list of tools and technologies — SQL, Python, Spark, Kafka, Airflow, dbt, Snowflake, Redshift, Terraform, Kubernetes, and the list goes on. Scroll job boards and LinkedIn, and it’s easy to conclude that unless you have experience with every modern tool in the data stack, you won’t even get a callback. Here’s the honest truth most data engineering hiring managers will quietly agree with: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can solve real data problems with the tools you know. Tools matter. But only in service of outcomes. Jobs are won by candidates who know why a technology is used, when to use it, and how to explain their decisions. So how many data engineering tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think — but you do need them in the right combination and order. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable and employable rather than overwhelmed.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Data Engineering Job Applications (UK Guide)

If you’re applying for data engineering jobs in the UK, the first thing to understand is this: Hiring managers don’t read every word of your CV. They scan it. They look for signals of relevance, credibility, delivery and collaboration — and if they don’t see the right signals quickly, your application may never get a second look. In data engineering, hiring managers are especially focused on whether you can build and operate reliable, scalable data systems, handle real-world data challenges and work effectively with analytics, BI, data science and engineering teams. This guide breaks down exactly what they look at first in your application — and how to shape your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you stand out.

The Skills Gap in Data Engineering Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Data engineering has quietly become one of the most critical roles in the modern technology stack. While data science and AI often receive the spotlight, data engineers are the professionals who design, build and maintain the systems that make data usable at scale. Across the UK, demand for data engineers continues to rise. Organisations in finance, retail, healthcare, government, media and technology all report difficulty hiring candidates with the right skills. Salaries remain strong, and experienced professionals are in short supply. Yet despite this demand, many graduates with degrees in computer science, data science or related disciplines struggle to secure data engineering roles. The reason is not academic ability. It is a persistent skills gap between university education and real-world data engineering work. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they consistently miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build successful careers in data engineering.
