Operations Team Lead - Cloud and Infrastructure

Permanent | Hybrid | UK-based - Slough | Competitive Salary + Benefits

Are you ready to take the lead in shaping the future of IT operations for a well-established global business? We're recruiting on behalf of one of our long-standing clients - a respected and forward-thinking organisation - who are on the lookout for an experienced Operations Team Lead to join them on a permanent basis.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a strong infrastructure background who has evolved with the times and is now confident in modern cloud technologies, particularly Microsoft Azure.

The Role

You'll be leading a team responsible for the day-to-day operations of a transitioning IT estate - moving from a traditional physical data centre to a cutting-edge Azure cloud environment. You'll manage operational support staff, oversee a small budget, and play a crucial role in maintaining stability, security, and performance across the organisation's IT services.

What You'll Bring

• Proven experience in leading IT operations teams within enterprise environments.
• A solid Wintel infrastructure background with strong knowledge of cloud functions - particularly Microsoft Azure.
• Experience with O365, Okta SSO, network comms, and cloud security tools like Zscaler or Cisco SSE.
• A pragmatic and proactive approach to ITIL-based service management and a sound understanding of security best practices, audits, and compliance.
• Strong communication skills - able to influence, lead, and collaborate with both technical teams and business stakeholders.
• Prior experience working in a Japanese or multinational corporate environment would be a plus, but not essential.
  
  

Why Apply?

• Join a stable and supportive team with long-term vision and a clear roadmap for digital transformation.
• Work for a global business that values innovation and invests in modern technology.
• Make a meaningful impact by leading the transition to a cloud-first operations model.
• Competitive salary, benefits package, and flexible hybrid working.
  
  

If you're a confident team lead with a passion for infrastructure and cloud operations - and you're looking for a fresh, permanent role where you can make your mark - we'd love to hear from you.
