Spencer Fitt, Infrastructure Team Manager via email on
SFITT@WESTMINSTER.GOV.UK About Us:
Creativity isn’t something that only senior managers do. In Digital and Innovation at Westminster City Council, we expect it from everyone, including our newest recruits. We’re also inviting residents aged 11-19 from the Westminster Youth Council to the Hub to attend a fun ‘speed dating’ event, where they hear from different digital teams. We’ll continue to meet with them every week to keep them directly involved in our plans to ensure young people have a regular voice at the heart of the council. The Role:
As an Infrastructure Engineer, you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster’s success. You will join a forward-thinking team and work across the whole of the Digital and Innovation portfolio, supporting activity across core IT and technology, customer and digital and the goal of making Westminster a world-class city. Your role will focus on enabling technology solutions and put user needs at the centre of every decision. You will leverage your technical skills to run and optimise technology infrastructure and services, manage technology operations such as monitoring or patching, and support end-user compute devices and audio-visual meeting room services. Collaboration is at the heart of this role. You will work with third-party suppliers to ensure systems are cost-effective and well-managed, while maintaining up-to-date records and robust processes for monitoring and upgrading infrastructure. You will investigate and diagnose complex infrastructure problems, safeguarding the performance and reliability of our systems to support the needs of all stakeholders. Your role will also focus on fostering a culture of continual service improvement, ensuring all infrastructure activities align with user needs and the Council’s values of diversity, inclusion and equity. To be successful in this role, you will need strong knowledge and experience of modern infrastructure concepts, protocols, and standards, including Active Directory (on-prem/Azure), Windows Server, Exchange, group policies, hosting solutions, security, storage, and backup/restore processes. You will have excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to administer and support a wide range of infrastructure technologies, solutions, and services. Strong analytical skills will allow you to evaluate current processes, optimise them, and ensure conformance to security and integrity standards. You will need excellent communication skills, enabling you to convey complex technical information clearly to a variety of audiences, and your interpersonal and networking abilities will help you successfully navigate challenging scenarios. What We Offer:
Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster. As a forward-thinking Council we appreciate that people work in different ways, therefore our staff benefit from working a range of flexible working patterns as well as Agile working. The Council is a Disability Confident Employer. If you have declared a disability in your application, we guarantee an interview if you meet the essential criteria of the job.
