  • Maintain high-quality documentation, operational procedures, and service standards.
  • Coordinate disaster recovery testing and business continuity readiness.

Champion Governance, Compliance and Security

  • Ensure IT operations meet governance, audit, compliance, and security requirements.
  • Support GDPR, information security, business continuity, and audit activities.
  • Promote a security-first mindset across operational delivery.

Deliver Continuous Improvement

  • Identify opportunities to improve services, processes, tooling, and efficiency.
  • Introduce innovative solutions that add genuine business value.
  • Help optimise IT spending and contribute to budgeting activities.
