  • Lead and develop Regional Infrastructure Managers, providing strategic direction and fostering a high-performing engineering function.
  • Own infrastructure governance, operational performance, KPIs, SLAs, and continual service improvement.
  • Manage strategic vendor and managed service provider relationships to ensure service quality and value.
  • Partner with Architecture, Security, and Technology teams to deliver large-scale transformation programmes.
  • Act as the senior escalation point for critical infrastructure incidents and operational risk.

Key Requirements of the Global Infrastructure Leader role:

  • Proven experience leading global enterprise infrastructure teams within a complex, multi-site organisation.
  • Strong background across Cloud technologies (Azure, AWS, Microsoft 365), Servers, Storage, Networking, and Enterprise Infrastructure.
  • Experience defining and delivering infrastructure strategy and technology roadmaps.
  • Strong understanding of ITIL principles, infrastructure governance, service management, and operational best practice.
  • Experience managing large infrastructure teams through Regional Managers.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills with experience engaging senior leadership and third-party vendors.
  • Experience delivering cloud transformation, automation, and infrastructure modernisation initiatives.
  • Previous experience within a professional services or similarly complex global organisation would be highly advantageous.
