Senior Infrastructure Engineer - Leicester (hybrid, 3 days onsite) | £70,000 - £80,000
Own an Azure migration from the ground up. Our client is moving from a private cloud, Windows Server environment to a modern Azure-first setup, and they're only at the pre-planning stage. That means you design it, you build it, you deliver it. Cradle to grave.
This is a senior, hands-on technical role (with leadership in due course) in a small IT function. You'll sit as peer to the Head of IT Services, owning infrastructure, cloud, networking, security technologies and integration architecture while they run service management and end-user computing. Two different lanes, same level.
What you'll be doing:
Leading technical design and delivery of the Azure migration, working with internal stakeholders and third-party partners Owning Azure and Microsoft 365 architecture: landing zones, Entra ID, Intune, Defender, Purview Holding infrastructure availability, resilience and performance during the transition Setting the technical standards for integration, APIs and platform connectivity Acting as senior technical escalation point for the team Building out the platform engineering capability as the function grows (a Cloud Engineer hire is planned for 2027, who'll report to you)
What you'll need:
Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365, not just strategy from the sidelines Solid background across Windows Server, networking and core infrastructure Proven delivery of cloud migration or infrastructure transformation Working knowledge of Entra ID, Intune, Defender and security best practice Experience securing cloud and infrastructure platforms: firewalls, WAF, network security, vulnerability management, Zero Trust Comfortable operating at both strategic and hands-on level in a small team Confidence managing third-party suppliers and technical partners
Nice to have:
Business Central SaaS, Nessus Tenable, Azure DevOps, PowerShell, Terraform/IaC, SQL, Meraki, and any exposure to building or governing API/integration platforms.
Security isn't all on you: there's a 24/7 SOC in place, so you're not carrying incident response alone. CyberEssentials and/or ISO27001 exposure is a strong plus.
Three days a week in the Leicester office, the rest remote. Standard hours Monday to Friday with occasional out-of-hours work during major incidents or deployments.
If you want a migration you can actually own from day one, not inherit halfway through, this is it.
