Our client is on the lookout for an experienced Infrastructure Specialist to join their team in Derby. If you enjoy working across a range of systems, solving problems before they become issues, and getting stuck into both day-to-day operations and longer-term projects, we’d love to hear from you.

* Assisting with cloud infrastructure (mainly Azure, some AWS)
* Monitoring systems, resolving issues, and spotting areas for improvement
* Taking the lead on infrastructure projects and upgrades
* Ensuring security best practices are followed
* Keeping documentation up to date and clear for the wider team
What we’re looking for:
* Solid experience in a similar infrastructure or systems role
* Confident with Windows Server environments and Active Directory
* Good knowledge of networking basics (firewalls, VPNs, TCP/IP etc.)
* Experience working with virtualisation and cloud platforms
* Comfortable juggling project work with daily support needs
* Someone who’s proactive, collaborative, and happy to share ideas
What’s in it for you:
* Salary between £45,000 and £55,000 depending on experience
* Hybrid working – mostly Derby-based but with some remote flexibility
* 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
* Private medical insurance
* Generous company pension
* Ongoing training and support with certifications
