Senior Interim / Transformation Assignment
We’re looking for a Principal / Director-level Infrastructure, Cloud & Cyber leader to play a key role in a complex M&A integration / separation programme.
This is a senior contract opportunity for someone who can operate credibly with C-suite executives, advisors and Private Equity stakeholders, make confident architecture decisions and move quickly from incomplete diligence information to pragmatic designs and executable plans.
The Role
You’ll lead the technology infrastructure workstream across complex transformation activity, with responsibility for:
- Infrastructure separation, consolidation and M&A integration
- Infrastructure and hosting strategy
- Azure, AWS and/or GCP architecture and migration
- Microsoft 365, identity, workplace and network integration
- Day 1 readiness and managed-service transition
- Architecture decisions and technology roadmaps
- Executive, advisor and PE stakeholder engagement
- Turning diligence findings into practical, deliverable integration plans
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We’re Looking For
- Significant M&A integration / separation experience – essential
- Principal / Director-level technology leadership experience
- Strong infrastructure and enterprise architecture background
- Azure, AWS and/or GCP experience
- M365, identity, workplace and network integration experience
- Experience delivering Day 1 readiness / TSA / managed-service transitions
- Comfortable operating with executives, advisors and PE stakeholders
- Able to make pragmatic decisions quickly in complex, incomplete environments
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Cybersecurity experience is highly advantageous, although there is scope to supplement the role with a dedicated senior Security Lead.
Experience across facilities management, building services or field services would be beneficial, but sector experience is less important than seniority, M&A experience and architecture leadership.
Why This Opportunity?
This is not a BAU infrastructure role. It’s a high-impact transformation assignment where you’ll be expected to provide senior technical leadership, influence major decisions and help shape the technology landscape through a significant M&A event.
