Job Description
I'm working with an Oxford-based charity with an international reputation that is looking for an IT Manager to take full ownership of their technology landscape and lead them through an exciting period of modernisation.
This is a newly created, strategically focused role ideal for someone ready to step beyond day-to-day support and shape a long-term IT roadmap, elevate governance, and build a secure, future-ready infrastructure. The role is hybrid with 1 day a week in the Oxford office (flexible).
About the Charity:
This health and social-care charity is dedicated to turning people's real care experiences into meaningful improvements for patients, service users, and staff across the UK, with plans to expand internationally. Your work will directly support thousands of patients and families every year, offering a genuine opportunity to make a measurable positive impact.
The Role:
The charity currently partners with an external MSP for day-to-day support, and they now need a strong internal IT leader to take charge of all strategic decisions. Reporting directly to the CFO, you'll shape technology strategy and long-term planning, oversee hardware and software choices, lead modernisation projects, strengthen security, compliance, and risk management, and manage MSP performance and key vendor relationships. While you'll occasionally assist colleagues with hands-on issues, your primary focus will be leadership, planning, and continuous improvement.
Key Opportunities:
You'll have the autonomy to reshape systems, strengthen infrastructure, and lead technical and cultural change.
You will:
** Modernise and redesign the tech landscape
** Strengthen security & compliance (ISO 27001, ISO 27701, Cyber Essentials/Plus)
** Partner with the Governance Manager on data governance
** Ensure staff feel confident and supported with technology
What You'll Ideally Bring:
** Proven IT Manager experience
** Strong strategic thinking
** Deep Microsoft expertise
** Solid networking & hardware knowledge
** Clear understanding of data governance
** Excellent communication skills
** Collaborative, people-focused leadership style
In return, they offer hybrid working (1 day in Oxford, flexible), £50,000-£60,000 salary, up to 8% matched pension, life insurance at four times salary, flexible working around core hours, two annual pay reviews, and full support for training and professional development (alongside other great benefits).
If you're an experienced IT leader seeking real influence, autonomy, and meaningful impact, this is an excellent opportunity. Please apply or contact Matthew MacAlpine at Cathcart Technology.
Cathcart Technology is acting as an Employment Agency in relation to this vacancy.
