We are seeking an experienced and motivated Senior IT Infrastructure Engineer to join our Digital Services team on a fixed-term basis to support a major digital transformation programme.

This exciting role will lead a dedicated team responsible for assessing, preparing and deploying end-user devices as part of the organisation's transition to Healthset.

Main duties of the job

You will be responsible for planning and coordinating deployment activities, managing technical resources, monitoring progress against programme objectives, and ensuring devices are configured and deployed in line with organisational and security standards. As the technical lead for the deployment team, you will provide expert advice, manage complex technical issues, and work closely with project teams, operational services and suppliers to ensure successful delivery.

The successful candidate will have significant experience within an IT infrastructure or end-user computing environment, coupled with strong leadership, organisational and stakeholder management skills.
