Job description

Quinbrook Infrastrcuture Partners and Private Energy Partners are seeking an experienced and forward-thinking Global IT Manager to take ownership of the group's IT infrastructure across all locations. This is a critical leadership role designed to move the organisation from a lean, start-up-style setup to a secure, efficient, and scalable global IT operation. You will lead a comprehensive review of our current environment, design a future-fit architecture, and execute a transformation roadmap that supports our business growth, cybersecurity posture, and operational excellence.

Key Responsibilities

IT Infrastructure Leadership: Own and manage all aspects of the global IT infrastructure across Quinbrook and PEP, ensuring systems are secure, resilient, and scalable.

Strategic Review & Modernisation: Conduct a comprehensive assessment of the current IT landscape and develop a strategy for transitioning to modern, cloud-based systems and standardised tools that support long-term business needs.

Cybersecurity Oversight: Develop and implement a cybersecurity strategy aligned with industry best practices (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST). Protect company systems and data through robust policies, security tools, and continuous monitoring.

Device & Endpoint Management: Oversee the full lifecycle of company laptops and devices, from procurement and configuration to deployment, patching, and secure decommissioning. Implement MDM (Mobile Device Management) to ensure consistency and compliance.

Identity & Access Management (IAM): Implement and manage SSO and IAM solutions to centralise access controls, reduce risk, and improve user experience across systems.

Cloud-first Strategy: Lead the migration and integration of core IT systems into secure, scalable cloud environments (e.g., Microsoft 365, Azure, AWS), supporting remote work and global operations.

IT Support & Service Delivery: Establish a scalable and responsive global IT support model, including ticketing systems, SLAs, and standardised onboarding/offboarding processes.

Collaboration Tools & Intranet: Lead the implementation and management of internal collaboration tools, including the development of an intranet or SharePoint environment to support knowledge sharing, document management, and employee engagement across global teams.

IT Policy & Governance: Develop and maintain IT policies and procedures for acceptable use, data protection, remote access, and incident response. Ensure documentation is audit-ready and supports future compliance requirements.

Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity: Create and test disaster recovery and continuity plans to minimise risk and downtime.

Vendor & Partner Management: Manage relationships with IT vendors, consultants, and service providers. Negotiate contracts and ensure service alignment with business goals.

Budgeting & Planning: Develop and manage the IT budget, including forecasting, procurement, and cost optimisation for hardware, software, and services.

Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with business leaders to align IT strategy with operational priorities, project needs, and future growth.

Skills and Experience

• Significant experience in an IT leadership role, ideally in a high-growth or global environment transitioning from start-up to scale.
• Strong background in cloud infrastructure, SaaS platforms, and IT systems integration.
• Deep understanding of cybersecurity, IAM, and IT compliance frameworks.
• Experience managing endpoint fleets (e.g., laptops, desktops) and implementing MDM solutions.
• Proven ability to develop and lead IT support models, including service desks and SLA frameworks.
