Infrastructure Operations Engineer (3rd Line Technical Support)

An opportunity has arisen for an Infrastructure Operations Engineer (3rd Line Technical Support) to join a friendly, supportive ICT Technology Department.

This is a senior role within the Infrastructure Operations Team, ideal for an experienced infrastructure professional with strong technical expertise across enterprise IT environments.

The successful candidate will be highly motivated, enthusiastic and technically minded, with a proven track record of supporting and developing complex infrastructure solutions.

The role includes supporting technologies such as virtualisation, storage, backup solutions, secure gateways, server environments, and a small amount of networking and software defined infrastructure, while leading investigations, evaluating options and recommending innovative solutions that support the Councils business objectives.

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.
