  • Line-manage and mentor a small (4- 8) team of solution and enterprise architects.
  • Improve time to market and speed to value for change initiatives.
  • Focus on digital-first, automated solutions to improve operational efficiency.  
  • Manage risks, controls, and mitigating actions for your area.

  

About you

 

  • Extensive experience in security and infrastructure architecture.
  • Experience working in a hybrid environment, with deep knowledge of on-prem and Azure infrastructure and services.
  • Established leader in the security and infrastructure space, with a keen desire to stay up to date with current and innovative technology.
  • You will have experience running end-to-end governance process.
  • Ability to line manage a team dealing with all people related matters and support their growth and development.
  • You will have solid communication and influencing skills with high emotional intelligence and empathy.
  • Azure and/or Security certifications are preferred. E.g. AZ-305, SC-100, CISSP an advantage.
  • Experience of achieving ISO 27001 an advantage.
