Description
We're First Central Insurance & Technology Group (First Central for short), an innovative, market-leading insurance company. We protect the things customers love so they can get on with what matters to them in life.
Data drives us. It fuels our outstanding distribution, finance, technology and legal services. Our underwriting skills are built on data expertise; it creates the insights we need to give the right cover to the right customers at the right price. But, it's the people inside and outside our business that power us. They make us stand out, help us succeed. We're ambitious. We're growing. We've won awards.
We're on the lookout for a skilled Infrastructure Engineer to bolster our Infrastructure team.
This role is pivotal in achieving IT Support and Corporate Services' strategic goals, as well as deploying IT Services that align with the company's infrastructure requirements and growth targets. The ideal candidate will oversee the continuous monitoring and maintenance of our system's health, utilizing advanced tools and alert systems. You'll ensure robust service management and will provide essential support for critical applications, contributing to the reliable and resilient performance of our IT infrastructure. Additionally, you'll aid in the execution of our technology business strategy and champion a culture of 'security by default' throughout our tech framework.
Working flexibly, you'll spend most of your time working from home, with occasional trips to the office (so living within a commutable distance to Haywards Heath, West Sussex, Salford Quays, Manchester, or Guernsey would be perfect). But of course, it's your choice - if you prefer to be in the office more - that's good with us too.
We'd love an Engineer in our team who's:
