Senior Infrastructure Manager - Cloud & Data Centre

Remote (infrequent travel to Birmingham)

A global industry leader with 30k+ employees across 20+ countries, is recruiting a Senior Infrastructure Manager to lead and enhance all cloud and data centre services across their multiple global businesses through both internal and vendor teams.

This is a key role within a large, complex organisation undergoing significant digital transformation. You’ll be responsible for leading a hybrid infrastructure landscape, with a strong focus on Azure cloud services, working closely with internal teams and external vendors to ensure reliable, secure, and future-ready IT operations.

The ideal individual will be someone who has experience leading and large-scale data centre and cloud operations, with a previous track record migrating services to Azure.

This can be a remote position based in the UK, with infrequent travel to core offices in both Birmingham and Europe (1hr flight).

Ideal Experience:

• Strong background in hybrid infrastructure, with deep knowledge of Cloud services (Azure very favourable)
• Experience leading technical teams and managing third-party vendors.
• The business operates in the retail and wholesale of physical products and materials. Due to the operation model, people who have solely worked in finance, insurance or saas businesses may not be optimally suited.
• Experience leading cloud and data centre operations on a large complex organisation (multi £bn turnover)
• Proven ability to improve resilience and performance of IT operations, on a multi geographical scale.
• In depth knowledge of data centre and cloud concepts.
• Strong vendor management and negotiation experience.

This strategically important role is highly urgent. We are looking to move quickly with a lean interview process over the coming weeks.
