You'll be responsible for

• Leading and developing a small team including Sys Admin, Network Admin and IT Specialists.
• Owning servers, networks, storage, desktops, peripherals and security controls.

• Ensuring high system uptime, performance and security compliance.
• Partnering closely with internal teams, stakeholders and site leaders.

You'll need

• 5+ years experience in IT infrastructure with leadership responsibility.
• Strong Microsoft Windows environment experience and understanding of virtualisation.
• Exposure to Nutanix, VMware or similar platforms.
• Manufacturing, CPG or very similar multi site operational experience.
• A proactive, accountable and relationship driven leadership style.
