Are you a security-minded infrastructure professional looking for a role where you’ll genuinely shape how the environment is protected and run? We’re recruiting for an IT Infrastructure Analyst to join a close-knit team, working across a predominantly on-premise environment (80%) with a growing Azure footprint (20%). This is a security-focused role at heart, with real infrastructure depth behind it — you’ll be hands-on with both protecting the environment and keeping it running.
This role is for you if:
- You’ve got strong experience with Microsoft Defender and associated security tooling
- You’re confident with Cisco and Meraki networking
- You have solid VMware, Windows Server, and Active Directory experience — these are essential
- Intune and Entra experience would be a bonus
- You’re comfortable managing a major infrastructure project — you’ll be central to a Server 2016 to Server 2022 upgrade across c.30 servers
- You communicate well with stakeholders and internal customers, not just systems
What’s on offer:
- Salary up to £45,000 + bonus
- Based in Newbury, Berkshire — onsite with some hybrid working
- Occasional out-of-hours work, paid as overtime
- A hands-on role where security and infrastructure genuinely meet, in a small team where your input counts
If you want a role that blends security focus with real infrastructure ownership, and you’re ready to be involved in a major server upgrade project, get in touch.
