Summary
As the Device Platform Engineering Manager, you will own and be responsible for the engineering and service for all enterprise, end user devices and the endpoint management platforms across a multi-site, device-diverse Retail estate.
This will include the endpoint management platform and device roadmap, engineering backlog, aligned to business priorities, target architecture and agreed engineering and service standards.
You will lead and develop a high-performing team, including managed service partners, to standardise, secure and continuously improve endpoint engineering, operations and management services. The role will deliver secure, reliable, low-friction device experiences for colleagues across Stores, Distribution Centres and Support Centre offices.
Drive transformation targeting a standard, unified endpoint management capability and operating model, shifting the organisation from location/device-specific ownership to a one platform view across the estate, with clear guardrails for configuration, policy, packaging, deployment and lifecycle practices.
You will be the platform owner, not just an endpoint admin. A people leader, not just a technical specialist. A retail / frontline service designer, not just an office-device manager.
Due to high interest, this role may close earlier than advertised. We recommend applying as soon as possible.
What you'll do
- Lead the design, build, testing and operation of enterprise endpoint-management platforms, owning the roadmap, backlog, engineering standards and technical change governance.
- Define standard endpoint-management patterns, provisioning, policy, application deployment, upgrade and lifecycle practices to enable secure, low-touch and supportable device experiences across all environments.
- Own the endpoint security, compliance and control posture across configuration, encryption, firewall, antivirus, patching, hardening, baseline enforcement, reporting and remediation.
- Ensure service stability and operational health by using analytics, reporting and rollout discipline to improve device experience, resilience, vulnerability management and continuous service improvement.
- Lead and develop a multidisciplinary endpoint capability, working cross-functionally with product, security, architecture, service, operations, vendors and partners to deliver business outcomes, quality and cost optimisation.
