EUC Lead / Endpoint Management Lead
£450–£550 per day | 12-Month Contract | Fully Remote
We are supporting an organisation in hiring an experienced EUC Lead / Endpoint Management Lead to take ownership of their endpoint strategy and drive a major modernisation programme across their digital workplace.
This is a high-impact role where you will assess the current environment, stabilise performance issues, and implement a clear roadmap toward a secure, standardised, and high-performing endpoint estate.
The Opportunity
The business has already invested heavily in Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), with ~80% of users operating in that environment. However, reliability challenges, inconsistent patching, and outdated configurations are impacting user experience.
The next phase is to transform endpoint management, and they need a seasoned expert to lead from the front.
You will:
- Take ownership of endpoint strategy across multiple jurisdictions
- Define and implement standards, builds, and governance
- Deliver quick wins while shaping a longer-term roadmap
- Mentor internal engineers and build lasting capability
Key Responsibilities
- Act as the SME for endpoint management technologies (Intune, Autopilot, Entra ID, etc.)
- Assess current endpoint landscape and define target-state architecture
- Design and implement standardised Windows builds, policies, and configurations
- Lead endpoint lifecycle management (provisioning, deployment, compliance, decommissioning)
- Drive adoption of modern, cloud-native endpoint management (Intune-first approach)
- Improve endpoint reliability and user experience, especially across AVD environments
- Oversee patching, compliance, and device health, reducing inconsistency and drift
- Implement Zero Trust principles across endpoint estate
- Work closely with Security, Cloud, and IT Support teams to align standards
- Act as escalation point for complex endpoint issues and root cause analysis
- Mentor and develop team members, embedding best practices

- Ability to define endpoint standards, builds, and governance frameworks
- Strong troubleshooting skills in complex enterprise environments
Preferred:
- Experience supporting Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) environments
- Background in global or multi-jurisdiction environments
- Experience contributing to technical governance and strategy
What They’re Looking For
- A true endpoint veteran who can take ownership and lead confidently
- Someone who can assess “as-is” vs “to-be” and deliver a clear roadmap
- A balance of hands-on engineering and strategic thinking
- A leader who can mentor others and raise overall capability
- Someone pragmatic, focused on real improvements and stability
