We're working with a growing global business for an IT Infrastructure & Cyber Security Engineer to help design, secure, and maintain their hybrid IT estate. This permanent role combines hands-on infrastructure support with a strong focus on security — ideal if you enjoy variety and want to make a real impact.

You'll work across on-premise and Azure cloud environments, ensuring systems are secure, resilient, and up to date. Day to day, you'll be involved in planning and implementing security controls, monitoring threats, responding to incidents, and collaborating with group-level security teams to stay ahead of risks.

Key skills we're looking for:

• Strong background in IT infrastructure — servers, networks, storage (SAN/NAS)
• Experience designing and maintaining secure on-premise and cloud systems (Azure preferred)
• Hands-on knowledge of security tools (e.g., Defender for Endpoint, Sentinel, Palo Alto, Tenable)
• Proven ability to manage vulnerability scans, incident response, and remediation
• Solid understanding of network protocols, firewalls, intrusion prevention, and secure data handling
• Good documentation and communication skills — you'll work with people at all levels

You'll be based out of the Milton Keynes or Birmingham office and be willing to travel to the other location once or twice a month.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone proactive and collaborative who wants to own both infrastructure and cyber security in a varied technical environment.
