Job Description
Looking for a job with a social purpose?
Do you want to shape secure, scalable infrastructure in an Azure environment?
Can you bring structure, support and clear direction to a skilled technical team?
I am working with a Housing Association based in Newcastle to recruit for a Cloud Infrastructure and Security Lead to join an established technical team and lead them through meaningful digital transformation.
This isn't a role buried in technical firefighting. You’ll be leading from the front, coaching, mentoring, and growing your team while fostering a collaborative, high-trust culture. With established technical capabilities already in-house, the focus is firmly on people: guiding your team through change, developing their capabilities, and helping shape the future of infrastructure, cloud, and security services across the organisation.
You’ll need experience leading and managing technical teams, ideally within infrastructure and cloud-based services. While a strong understanding of Azure, Security and Networking is required. The real priority is your leadership style, how you develop people, bring clarity, and create a thriving, high-performing team.
What’s in it for you?
* Real Leadership Influence: Reporting directly to the Head of ICT & Digital, you’ll help shape strategy, build team culture, and be instrumental in futureproofing digital services.
* A Supportive Environment: You’ll join a leadership team that’s open, honest, and personable. With a blend of experience across the team and a strong technical foundation, you won’t be on your own.
* Modern Tech Stack: Fully cloud supported on Azure, you’ll work with current technologies including Microsoft Intune, AVD, and Cisco networking. The team is also responsible for the security wraparound of new software solutions emerging from the digital transformation programme.
* A Culture That Cares: This organisation prioritises wellbeing,, and team development. You’ll have the freedom to bring your ideas to the table and drive positive change.
This is a hybrid role working 3 days a week onsite in their office in the Newcastle.
The salary is £51,000 with an annual increase currently awaiting confirmation.
