Infrastructure Manager

Location: Milton Keynes - Hybrid 2 days per week

Reports to: Head of IT Service and Operations

We are seeking a hands-on and experienced Infrastructure Engineering Manager to join our growing IT team. This role is central to the evolution and operational performance of our infrastructure estate, ensuring it remains secure, resilient, scalable, and aligned to business needs. You'll play a key role in shaping and delivering infrastructure strategy across cloud, core enterprise platforms, connectivity, and end-user environments, with a strong focus on technical direction, platform improvement, and operational excellence.

We’re looking for someone who is comfortable providing technical leadership, supporting delivery teams, leading operational improvements, and engaging with senior stakeholders across both technology and the wider business.

As part of a multi-skilled technology function, you will work closely with Product Managers and Delivery Managers to shape priorities, support OKRs, and ensure successful delivery of both strategic change and BAU activity.

This is a key role with significant influence on the future direction of our technology landscape.

What you’ll be doing

  • Provide hands-on technical leadership: Lead the ongoing development, standardisation, and modernisation of our corporate infrastructure estate across cloud and enterprise platforms. Contribute to solution design, problem solving, automation, platform improvement, and the resolution of complex technical challenges.
  • Cloud and platform management: Drive the effective adoption and operation of our cloud platforms and related infrastructure services, ensuring solutions are robust, well-governed, and operationally sustainable.
  • Own operational performance and BAU delivery: Ensure the effective day-to-day operation of infrastructure services, including monitoring, patching, lifecycle management, incident response, continuity, and continual service improvement.
  • Drive delivery and prioritisation: Work closely with Product Managers and Delivery Managers to shape OKRs, prioritise work, and deliver infrastructure change, projects, and service improvements alongside BAU commitments.
  • Stakeholder engagement and translation: Build strong relationships across technology and the business, translating technical issues, risks, and opportunities into clear, practical language for non-technical and senior stakeholders.
  • Improve engineering practices: Contribute to the development of standards, automation, and modern ways of working to improve consistency, efficiency, and quality across the infrastructure estate.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
