Digital transformation is no longer a future ambition; it’s a present-day imperative. As organisations accelerate their adoption of emerging technologies, the role of IT professionals has evolved from support function to strategic partner. 

At L&G, our IT teams are at the forefront of this transformation, helping to shape the infrastructure, security, and systems that power our business and serve our customers. 

Learn about the most critical developments in digital transformation and why they matter for technology professionals looking to grow their impact and their careers at L&G. 

1. Cloud-native architecture and hybrid environments 

At Legal & General, we are strategically embracing cloud-native architecture and hybrid environments to drive our digital transformation. As part of our cloud-first approach, we have migrated key business applications to Microsoft Azure, enabling us to scale more efficiently and enhance our operational resilience. 

Additionally, our partnership with Kyndryl is accelerating our transition to a multi-cloud environment, which allows us to seamlessly integrate and optimise resources across both public and private cloud platforms.

For IT professionals at L&G, this transformation presents an exciting opportunity to be at the forefront of cloud innovation. By leveraging cloud-native technologies, our teams are modernising infrastructure to meet the growing demands of our customers while ensuring compliance and robust security. 

2. Cybersecurity as a strategic priority at L&G 

With an expanding digital footprint and increasing reliance on cloud environments, we recognise that security must be embedded into every layer of our IT infrastructure. 

Our approach to cybersecurity is proactive and holistic, focusing not only on protecting data but also on ensuring business continuity in an increasingly complex threat landscape.

For IT professionals at L&G, the opportunity to shape and implement enterprise-level cybersecurity strategies is integral to the success of our digital initiatives. 

As we build a more secure and resilient organisation, we are seeking experts who can lead the charge in safeguarding our digital assets and maintaining the trust of our customers. 

3. The rise of AI and automation 

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is revolutionising how we analyse data, make decisions, and engage with clients—driving innovation in everything from risk management to customer service. 

By embedding AI and machine learning into our core systems, we are not only improving our internal processes but also redefining how we interact with the market and our stakeholders.

For IT professionals at L&G, this is an exciting time to be part of a company that is pushing the boundaries of AI and automation in the financial services sector. 

Our commitment to innovation means that we are looking for forward-thinking experts who can drive AI initiatives, experiment with new models, and continue to push the envelope on what’s possible with machine learning and automation. 

Evolve in the tech landscape with L&G 

From cloud architecture to AI, the technology landscape is shifting rapidly. Staying ahead means not only understanding the key trends but also having the agility and mindset to adapt as the pace of change increases.

As we continue to evolve our tech capabilities at L&G, we are looking for talented IT professionals who can contribute to building a future-ready IT landscape.
