Infrastructure Project Engineer
Asset Resourcing · Gloucester, England ·
Infrastructure Project Engineer (Azure / Microsoft 365) Gloucester HQ | Hybrid, 3 days a week in the office | £55,000 | Permanent A growing group business is looking for an experienced Microsoft infrastructure engineer who wants to move into project delivery.
Reporting to the IT Director, you'll take IT projects from start to finish: scoping them, building them yourself and handing them over. The group grows partly through acquisition, so bringing newly acquired businesses onto its Microsoft 365 and Azure environment is a regular part of the job, alongside a wider programme of infrastructure, cloud and business systems projects.

Who this suits: A 3rd line, infrastructure or cloud engineer with strong Azure and M365 skills who has already been leading projects or workstreams and wants that to be the main job An MSP project or implementation engineer who has delivered migrations and onboarding for clients and wants to do it in-house
