Infrastructure Engineer What we offer... 

We understand how important life is outside of work so, as well as competitive salary and 33 days annual leave, we are totally committed to flexible working. We’ll support you, wherever possible, so that you don’t miss out on what truly matters to you.

If you do ever need a little bit of extra help we have a great employee assistance programme, financial well-being support and access to loads of great discounts with leading high street names.

Our range of network groups are also there to support you to truly be yourself at work and play a key role in helping shape our future.

If you are a member of a professional body we’ll pay for your membership and once you get your top of the range digital kit you’ll be good to go in one of our great offices (or at home!)

A bit about the role...

Working in with a team of dedicated Infrastructure Engineers and primarily the wider Digital directorate, this role will play a critical part in our team and its delivery of great customer service, support and upkeep of our Digital Systems and Services. 

You will be joining our small talented, friendly and experienced team of people, who are committed to making positive change in how Digital Infrastructure affects the wider organisation, as well as always looking for ways to improve current and new systems/services.

We believe in working in a collaborative, flexible way to foster good decision making and problem solving within their team.

A bit about you…

Whilst our primary day job is to deliver first class customer service to our stakeholders on Digital issues, you will always be looking for ways to improve and innovate within our space.

You'll be comfortable supporting the organisation with any infrastructure issues, as well being able to work closely with other colleagues within the Digital Team and across the business. This includes understanding your audiences, working collaboratively to come up with solutions and communicating clearly and concisely on how to these will be delivered. 

As an experienced Infrastructure professional you’ll understand how to manage colleagues and be able to demonstrate you can work with others as part of a team in a collaborative, inclusive way.

Who are we?  We are the Government’s national housing agency. Our role is to accelerate the pace of house-building across the country, particularly in areas where there are the most serious affordability issues – meaning people are struggling to find homes. 

We have the appetite, influence, expertise and resources to drive positive market change and meet the Government’s ambition to deliver 300,000 new homes a year. We are using our land, influence, funds and knowledge to increase the pace, scale and quality of new homes accelerating delivery in areas of greatest demand and helping create great places to live. Within the next few years, we will have invested over £27 billion across our programmes. To deliver against these aims we’re building a different kind of public service - join us to help make this happen.

We would encourage all applicants to apply as soon as possible as we may close vacancies early should we receive a high number of applications. We also encourage you to apply using the full application option as opposed to quick apply, this is especially important if you would like to indicate to us that you would like to be considered under the disability confident scheme. 

If your application is shortlisted to interview we will require you to provide proof of your right to work in the UK at that stage.

Please note that Homes England are currently consulting on a pay and grading review.  We will share information with candidates about the outcome of this review and any impact that this may have on this role throughout the recruitment process.
