Infrastructure Operations & Management Manager

Envision Employment Solutions is currently looking for an Infrastructure Operations & Management Manager for one of our partners, a leading Digital Bank! THE ROLE You run the ground the digital bank stands on. You will ensure the bank’s data-centre, compute, storage, network and backup platforms are secure, resilient and ready to support growth. You will combine strong operational discipline with automation, infrastructure as code and clear service ownership. In a bank, infrastructure must do more than run. It must recover, scale and produce the evidence to prove it is under control. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Lead the operation of staging, production and regulatory data-centre environments. - Operate the core infrastructure across servers, operating systems, virtualisation, storage, networks and supporting platforms. - Drive automation and infrastructure-as-code practices to improve consistency, traceability and recovery. - Own backup, restore and data-protection operations, ensuring recovery objectives are defined, monitored and tested. - Lead disaster-recovery capability and prove readiness through regular technical and business-aligned exercises. - Plan availability, resilience, performance and capacity ahead of demand. - Manage upgrades, vulnerability remediation and infrastructure lifecycle. - Define operational standards, support models, runbooks and escalation paths across infrastructure services. - Work with security to embed hardening, access control, logging and regulatory requirements into the environment. - Manage data-centre, hardware, hosting and infrastructure vendors against clear service levels. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR - 7+ years in infrastructure operations, platform operations or data-centre management. - Hands-on depth across servers, operating systems, virtualisation, storage, backup and networking. - Experience operating highly available, regulated production environments. - Practical knowledge of automation, infrastructure as code, configuration management and monitoring. - Strong experience in disaster recovery, capacity planning and operational resilience. - Familiarity with audit and regulatory expectations is valuable but not essential. YOU’LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU - You test recovery rather than assume it - You automate repeatable work - You plan capacity before it becomes a constraint - You treat resilience as something that must be continuously demonstrated.
