Lead Database Administrator

🚀 Lead DBA - £95,000 + Bonus - Manchester (hybrid) 🚀

Are you fed up of just doing maintenance?

Do you want to own and build on top of a brand new platform

As a Lead DBA, you'll lead the architecture and strategy of a large-scale, high-availability platform for a household name.

This isn't a role where you'll be disappearing into meetings all day either. They're looking for someone who enjoys getting their hands dirty and leading from the front.

Outside the hands-on work, you'll define best practices, influence key decisions and help develop the wider DBA function.

They've just completed a huge migration project, so you'll get to influence how the platform evolves as it continues to scale.

✅ Looking for experience with:

• Relational & non-relational databases
• High-availability and disaster recovery
• Linux administration
• CI/CD
• Infrastructure as Code

🤩 What they're offering:

• £95,000 base salary
• Bonus up to 10%
• Hybrid working (mostly remote)
• Private medical

Even if your CV isn't fully updated, 'Easy Apply' and I'll be in touch.
