Head of Infrastructure Architecture - Executive Director
My leading Banking client are looking for an experienced and forward-thinking individual to own the infrastructure architecture across end-user compute, data centre estate and cloud, and drive the consolidation of three separate estates into one coherent, cost-managed platform.
Responsibilities:
- Define the target-state infrastructure architecture spanning virtual desktop infrastructure, physical and co-located data centres, and public cloud, with a clear placement policy governing what runs where and why.
- Lead the data centre rationalisation programme: workload discovery and dependency mapping, migration wave planning, exit sequencing, and lease/contract alignment.
- Consolidate the VDI and end-user compute estate — rationalise brokers, images, profile management and licensing; define persona-based desktop patterns; set the roadmap from legacy VDI toward a single strategic platform.
- Design cloud landing zones, network topology, identity integration, and hybrid connectivity to support migration at scale without re-platforming the operating model per application.
- Own resilience architecture — disaster recovery tiering, recovery time and point objectives, failover design and testing — aligned to operational resilience and important business service requirements.
