Infrastructure Engineer

Manchester, with support for remote sites

A growing technology company operating across the UK and internationally, is seeking an experienced Infrastructure Engineer to strengthen its internal IT team.

Reporting to the Head of IT, you will be responsible for maintaining, securing and improving the company's IT infrastructure, delivering technical projects and supporting ongoing business growth.

This is a hands-on technical role focused on infrastructure engineering, cybersecurity, automation and continuous improvement, rather than day-to-day service desk support.

Main Technical Requirements

  • Windows Server: Strong administration, maintenance, patching and troubleshooting experience.
  • Active Directory & Group Policy: Advanced administration, access management and security controls.
  • Hyper-V: Virtualisation management, maintenance and infrastructure upgrades.
  • Microsoft 365 & Azure: Experience with hybrid environments, Entra ID and Microsoft Intune.
  • SQL Server, IIS & RDS: Experience supporting, maintaining and migrating these platforms.
  • Networking: Strong understanding of TCP/IP, switching, VLANs, WANs and VPN technologies.
  • Firewalls: Experience with next-generation firewalls, ideally Sophos XGS.
  • Cybersecurity: Vulnerability management, endpoint protection, security patching and Cyber Essentials Plus controls.
  • Backup & Disaster Recovery: Experience managing backup solutions, recovery processes and business continuity.
  • PowerShell: Scripting, automation and infrastructure administration.
  • Infrastructure Projects: Experience delivering server migrations, system upgrades and infrastructure improvements.

About You

You will have at least 6–8 years of infrastructure experience, excellent troubleshooting skills and the ability to take ownership of complex technical challenges.

You'll be proactive, technically confident and comfortable working independently and collaboratively.

Desirable: Cyber Essentials Plus, Mimecast administration and relevant Microsoft, Azure, networking or security certifications.
