Form of work
SalaryAn opportunity has arisen to join the Hosting Operations Infrastructure Team. This represents a fantastic chance to develop and grow your skills in Technology.
We are Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world-leading academic publisher and assessment organisation and a proud part of the University of Cambridge.
About the role
- Install and maintain equipment in our Data Centres, so Cambridge can benefit from stable, performant platforms.
- Champion the standards we have adopted (BS27001 and 20000 to name but two), to help our business streams maintain and grow their businesses.
- Work collaboratively with other colleagues, so we can achieve the very best service possible for all our users.
- Keep abreast of new developments, to help us keep our Data Centres improving and moving forward.
- Become an expert in Data Centre technology.
About you
You need to be able to demonstrate good awareness of Data Centres, their constraints, and how they should be maintained (it would be beneficial to have had hands on experience in an IT technical role).
The role requires the ability to rack, cable and commission new devices following industry best practices and our local standards.
You must be a team player, eager to work and collaborate with others, but this role will also require you to work unsupervised on critical infrastructure, so you'll need a mature, conscientious attitude to become a highly regarded, trusted colleague.
Windows and linux administration, as well as basic networking skills, would be beneficial.
This role offers both personal and career development opportunities for the taking!
If you would like to know more about this opportunity and what will make you successful, please see the full job description attached to the bottom of this vacancy on our careers site.

• 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Private medical and Permanent Health Insurance
• Discretionary annual bonus
• Group personal pension scheme
• Life assurance up to 4 x annual salary
• Green travel schemes
Whilst we are a hybrid working organisation, and we offer a range of flexible working options from day one, this role requires mostly onsite attendance. We will also consider other work arrangements if you wish to work more flexibly or require adjustments due to a disability.
