The role

A UK retail bank is integrating with its new parent group. The internal infrastructure team, who know the estate best, are being pulled onto migration work. You'll provide hands-on technical cover across the existing estate to keep day-to-day services stable and reliable.

This is an operational, technical role, not a migration lead or capacity-planning specialism.

What you'll do

• Support and maintain Windows and Linux server estates, virtual infrastructure and enterprise storage
• Investigate infrastructure issues and work with specialists to resolve them
• Spot resource pressure and performance risks before they become incidents
• Review proposed designs and changes for their impact on the live estate
• Work with DBAs on how Oracle, SQL Server and DB2 depend on the underlying Servers and storage
• Work within incident, problem, change and configuration processes
• Give clear updates, raise risks and escalate early

What you need

• Strong hands-on experience managing, engineering or supporting enterprise Servers and storage
• Good Windows Server and Linux knowledge in a large organisation
• Solid SAN/NAS understanding
• VMware or similar virtualisation experience
• Exposure to Oracle, SQL Server and DB2 environments (DBA-level expertise not needed)
• Working knowledge of ITIL processes
• Ability to attend London or Edinburgh an average of 3 days a week from March 2027

Nice to have

• Banking or other regulated-sector experience
• Infrastructure or data migration projects
• ServiceNow
• Capacity and performance management
