- Administer and optimise Microsoft 365, SharePoint Online and enterprise collaboration platforms.
- Manage Microsoft Entra ID, identity governance, access management and security controls.
- Support Windows Server infrastructure, Active Directory, virtualisation and hybrid cloud environments.
- Identify and eliminate infrastructure single points of failure through automation, redundancy and cloud-native design.
- Deliver infrastructure upgrades,



cloud migrations and platform improvements.
- Troubleshoot complex infrastructure, cloud and identity-related issues.

Skills & Experience:

- Strong hands-on experience across Windows Server, Microsoft 365, SharePoint Online and Microsoft Azure.
- Proven Azure infrastructure engineering and architecture experience, including hands-on implementation.
- Experience migrating traditional Windows and SQL Server applications into Azure-native environments.
- Strong understanding of Azure SQL, Azure networking, compute, storage and managed services.
- Experience with Hyper-V, SQL Server and traditional Windows client/server architectures.
- Strong Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, identity and access management experience.
- Experience designing highly available, fault-tolerant infrastructure and disaster recovery solutions.
- Understanding of RTO/RPO, automated failover, infrastructure resilience and business continuity.
- Experience supporting hybrid cloud environments and Microsoft enterprise technologies.
- PowerShell scripting, infrastructure automation and Azure Infrastructure as Code capabilities highly regarded.
- AWS exposure advantageous but not essential.
- Financial services experience highly regarded.

Ideal Candidate:

We are looking for a highly capable, hands-on Microsoft Infrastructure & Azure Cloud Engineer who can operate confidently across both traditional Windows environments and modern cloud technologies.
