About The Role

We're looking for an experienced Infrastructure Technical Lead to join allpay and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our technology estate.

This is a senior technical leadership position responsible for driving the evolution of our hybrid infrastructure environment, spanning Microsoft Azure, private cloud and on-premises platforms. You'll provide technical direction, lead a team of talented infrastructure engineers, and help deliver a Cloud First strategy that underpins critical services for both our business and customers.

You'll be equally comfortable discussing cloud architecture, automation and resilience strategies as you are coaching engineers and leading technical delivery.

What You'll Be Doing

Technical Leadership

  • Provide technical leadership across our Azure, private cloud and on-premises infrastructure estate.
  • Lead the design, implementation and optimisation of scalable, resilient cloud solutions.
  • Drive automation initiatives using PowerShell, ARM templates and Azure-native technologies.
  • Act as the senior escalation point for complex infrastructure incidents and major technical challenges.
  • Champion best practices around monitoring, performance management, disaster recovery and service resilience.

Strategy & Transformation

  • Play a leading role in delivering our Cloud First strategy and Azure migration programme.
  • Contribute to infrastructure architecture decisions and long-term technology roadmaps.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend improvements that enhance performance, security and customer experience.
  • Lead major infrastructure projects and collaborate with suppliers and technology partners.

Team Leadership

  • Lead, mentor and develop a team of Infrastructure Engineers.
  • Foster a culture of technical excellence, innovation and continuous improvement.
  • Support career development through coaching, knowledge sharing and performance management.
  • Manage priorities and resources to ensure successful delivery of operational and project work.

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.
