Head of IT Operations Azure

Head of IT Operations (Azure) Remote UK to 75kJoin a growing technology led bank as Head of IT Operations, taking ownership of service delivery, service transition, operational governance and change management across a complex technology estate.

The bank has an established Azure environment supporting and integrating multiple business systems, alongside an AWS platform operated by a recently integrated business that has historically worked with a more entrepreneurial and less formal approach to technology operations.

A key priority will be bringing these environments together and introducing appropriate bank grade service management, governance and controls without creating unnecessary bureaucracy or slowing delivery. You'll own and improve service transition into production, operational readiness and handover, change management, incident and performance management, supplier governance and cloud operations across Azure and AWS.

You'll also help define the controls, processes and operating practices needed to support continued growth within a regulated financial services environment. Location / WFH:You can work from home most of the time, meeting up with colleagues in the London office once or twice a month.
