If you\'re looking for your job, but bigger, this could be your next move.

Develop your skills and expertise as you support our global mission

In detail, your tasks will include identifying operational problems and contributing to their resolution, and providing fellow specialists, users and managers with reports and proposals for improvement. Investigating faults in systems, processes and services, you\'ll advise on the implementation of solutions and preventative measures, take ownership of escalated incidents or service requests, and carry out technical investigations, diagnosis and the resolution of issues. We\'ll also expect you to work on document asset information, including the identification, classification and specification of all items, and associated storage, access and version information.

Use your programming and build skills to deliver results that make a real difference

We\'ll expect you to have well developed asset, configuration, incident, change and release management skills, and any experience of working within ITIL environments would be an advantage. A practical understanding of relevant tools such as ServiceNow, along with server infrastructure and networks knowledge would be desirable. As would a desire to enhance current scripting skills, automation and patching techniques, and the opportunity to work with various Linux Distros.

We offer a competitive salary, 25 days annual leave per year and a Civil Service pension. Depending on business need, we can accommodate some hybrid working between the office and home. While on-site, you\'ll have access to an on-site gym, nursery, canteen, and we offer interest-free loans on season tickets and bikes to help you get there. Above all else, we can offer your job, bigger. As an Infrastructure Operations Engineer you\'ll be using all your skills with an organisation that protects people, information and assets around the world. Using your skills in a way that just means more.
