With a competitive salary, bonus scheme and freedom to innovate, this is an opportunity to join a family business with a modern outlook and rich heritage.

At Everards, we’ve been proudly brewing beer and supporting pubs since 1849.

We’re embracing a new chapter, investing in digital transformation to create a secure, connected, and cloud-first IT environment that empowers colleagues across the business.

Oversee the day-to-day running of IT operations, including user support, device management, and service desk leadership

Manage and optimise Microsoft 365, Azure, SharePoint, Teams, and Intune to support a cloud-first strategy

Provide technical leadership in IT infrastructure, balancing operational delivery with innovation and future improvement projects

Fostering digital confidence and skills across colleagues

Lead and support cloud migration initiatives, ensuring smooth adoption of new systems and ways of working with strong experience in project management skills

Act as a key stakeholder partner, building strong relationships across the business to ensure IT changes are understood, adopted, and embedded

Strengthen cybersecurity, compliance, and risk management to protect business operations

Develop and maintain IT documentation, processes, and reporting to continuously improve service delivery

What’s in it for you?

Competitive salary: depending on experience

Annual bonus scheme linked to performance

Holidays: 25 days plus bank holidays, with the option to buy/sell additional days

Wellbeing benefits: Optical/healthcare support with cashback options

Monthly product allowance: to spend in our Beer Hall or shop

Pension: Employer contributions up to 5%

Heritage meets innovation: A chance to shape the IT of a family owned business with over 170 years of history and a bold vision for the future

Freedom to innovate: your role will be future-focused, exploring improvements and digital opportunities

What we’re looking for

Strong experience in IT infrastructure management, including Microsoft 365 and Azure.

Proven track record leading IT operations or support teams.

A degree in Computer Science, Information Technology or similar would be desirable

Experience in cloud migration, service delivery, and stakeholder management.

Ability to work on-site at Everards Meadows, Leicestershire.

Exposure to Intune, SharePoint optimisation, or ITIL service delivery frameworks.

Proactive, curious, and confident in driving both day-to-day reliability and long-term digital improvements

If you’re ready to shape the IT future of a heritage brand with a modern vision, this is your opportunity. Click to Apply
