Maintain monitoring tools, infrastructure diagrams and documentation 
	
Work within change control and governance processes in a regulated environment

A Typical Day

Previous management or team leadership experience
	
Strong Low-Level Design (LLD) capability 
	
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills—this is a collaborative role

A proactive, organised and detail-focused approach
