Akkodis is seeking an Infrastructure Manager for an excellent organization in Denton, TX!!! This will be a fully onsite role, 5 days a week. The desired candidate will have 7+ years of progressive IT experience in enterprise IT infrastructure (systems, storage, virtualization, cloud, networking, backup/recovery, or unified communications) with at least 3 years of experience in leadership. You will be responsible for coordinating, driving, and ensuring completion of infrastructure work across day‑to‑day operations and project‑level deliverables for all locations. This is a working manager role focused on task leadership, execution management, and service delivery, serving as an operational extension and assistant to the Associate Director, Infrastructure.

Responsibilities

• Facilitates consistent execution of divisional processes, including incident and problem management, change management, knowledge management, service process design, and performance analysis—ensuring work is visible, measurable, and continuously improving.

• Establishes and runs team operating rhythms (daily/weekly check‑ins, work planning, status reviews) to ensure consistent execution and on‑time delivery.

• Produces and maintains delivery artifacts (work plans, checklists, runbooks, cutover plans, after‑action notes, and task‑level schedules) to support repeatable execution and reduce risk.
• Coordinates cross‑team dependencies (applications, security, service desk, vendors, and campus stakeholders) to keep deliverables moving and avoid delays.
• Facilitates consistent execution of incident, problem, and change processes for Infrastructure work, ensuring documentation, approvals, communications, and post‑change validation are completed to standard.
• Supports operational health activities (patching windows, capacity reviews, lifecycle tasks, DR/testing activities, monitoring follow‑ups) by tracking commitments and ensuring completion and documentation.
• Tracks recurring operational deliverables (monthly/quarterly tasks, audits, maintenance cycles) and ensures nothing “falls through the cracks.”
• Identifies operational risk, drift, and process gaps; partners with technical leads to define corrective actions and ensure they are completed and verified.
• Assists the Associate Director, Network Architect, and technical leads with planning, sequencing, and executing infrastructure projects of varying complexity and priority; maintains integrated task plans, milestones, risks, issues, and dependencies.
• Coordinates project communications (status updates, timelines, outage notices, stakeholder summaries) in clear business‑friendly and technical language.
• Tracks and analyzes service and delivery trends; produces reports/dashboards for internal leadership and stakeholders (e.g., ticket aging, throughput, project milestone status, risk/issue logs).

Required Skills

• Bachelor’s degree required. Additional job‑related experience may substitute for the required education on a year‑for‑year basis.
• Seven years of relevant experience in enterprise IT infrastructure (systems, storage, virtualization, cloud, networking, backup/recovery, or unified communications) and operational service delivery.
• Experience with major server operating systems (Windows server, Redhat Linux, etc.).
• Experience managing interconnected systems and servers in a complex environment.
• Experience with virtualization systems such as VMware, Vsphere and other hypervisors.
• Experience with backup/restore applications such as Commvault, Veeam.
