• Proven experience in hybrid cloud environments
• Strong background in cloud migration & infrastructure transformation
• Experience leading teams or acting as a technical authority
• Solid understanding of:

• DevOps / automation exposure
• Experience with large-scale transformation programmes

🔥 Why This Role

• Own and shape enterprise-wide infrastructure strategy
• Work across cloud, data centre, and hybrid environments
• High visibility with senior stakeholders
