Senior Azure Infrastructure Engineer

£85k-£100k + 20% bonus + unlimited holidays

Our client is a well-established, publicly listed investment management firm managing over $100bn in assets for institutional clients. With offices across London, Zurich, New York, and Germany, they're looking for a Senior Azure Infrastructure Engineer to own their infrastructure function and help them move legacy applications into Microsoft Azure... Lots of Terraform involved.

You'll become pivotal to a small team (1 Senior Engineer + 2 support engineers, plus close collaboration with a DevOps Engineer) and report directly to the CTO, the expectation is 90% hands-on, 10% mentoring . If you've become detached from the tech in your current role, this probably isn't for you.

You'll play a key role by...

• Personally configuring, maintaining, and troubleshooting infrastructure across Microsoft Azure, Windows Server, M365, Entra ID, Intune, and a VMware-based server estate.
• Driving Azure adoption, automation, and standardisation, with scope to work closely on infrastructure-as-code and modernisation initiatives.
• Taking meaningful ownership of vulnerability management, patching, penetration testing coordination, and audit engagement (3-4 audits per year), plus backup and disaster recovery, including a live RFP for new DR solutions.
• Contributing directly to a newly signed-off infrastructure strategy, including a future move away from the current on-prem/VMware stack toward a new target architecture.
• Mentoring and setting standards for your team.
• Our client wants someone who asks "why," challenges decisions constructively, and proposes improvements.

We'd love to hear from you if you have…

• Strong, current, hands-on experience across Microsoft Azure, M365, Entra ID/Active Directory, Intune, Windows Server, and VMware
• Terraform experience
• Solid enterprise networking fundamentals
• Some exposure to leading or mentoring a small technical team, or leading critical technical projects.
• Curiosity about AI-enabled operational tooling

What's in it for you?

• 11% non-contributory pension
• Unlimited holidays policy
• Up to 20% bonus (paid bi-annually)
• Two weeks of work from anywhere
• Hybrid working (Tuesday - Thursday in Paddington)
• Private Healthcare

If this sounds like a good next step for you please don't hesitate to apply.
