Future Infrastructure Manager Opportunity
Northampton, East Midlands (On Site)
c£45,000 + Uncapped Bonus + Benefits
Are you a Technical Support Manager, IT Support Manager, Service Desk Manager or Senior Support Engineer looking for the opportunity to step beyond traditional support management and build a career in infrastructure, cloud technology and IT operations?
This is a newly created role within a high-growth, technology-driven organisation that is investing heavily in Azure, Microsoft 365, cybersecurity, AI and data. Reporting directly to the Head of Technology, you will play a key role in shaping and scaling the internal support function whilst developing towards broader infrastructure and operational leadership responsibilities.
This is not a traditional Helpdesk Manager role.
The business is experiencing sustained growth and is investing heavily in technology as a strategic enabler. This newly created position offers the opportunity to build, improve and scale the support function whilst developing your own career towards broader infrastructure, cybersecurity and IT operations leadership.
The Opportunity
You will lead and develop a team of two Helpdesk Engineers whilst taking ownership of the day-to-day operation of the support function.
Alongside team leadership, you will remain hands-on technically, acting as the senior escalation point for more complex issues across Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune, Exchange Online, VPN connectivity, endpoint management and business-critical SaaS platforms.
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.
You will have the opportunity to introduce structure, improve service levels, strengthen reporting, enhance documentation, improve ticket ownership and help create a highly effective and scalable support function capable of supporting a growing organisation.
The role also offers exposure to wider infrastructure and cybersecurity initiatives, including asset visibility, vulnerability management, endpoint security and operational governance.
This is an opportunity to influence how technology support is delivered rather than simply maintain existing processes.
