Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- Together with our Director of IT Infrastructure & Security, you will ensure the stable, secure, and future-proof operation of the entire IT infrastructure as well as the information security of the FMTG Group.
- Hotels, Residences, Camps, and Offices must always have access to high-performance and fault-tolerant IT – for this, you work together with your team and help protect the company from cyber risks.
- You start as Deputy Director of IT Infrastructure & Security – a newly created position directly beside our long-standing Director of IT Infrastructure & Security, who will continue to lead the department.
- Over the next 12–18 months, you will work closely together: you will bring your own professional input from the start, gradually grow into your role, and develop your area of responsibility in close coordination with him.
- Above all, you will actively shape the department during a crucial phase: We are developing IT Infrastructure & Security from a heavily outsourcing-oriented model to an independent, internal organization with clear processes, measurable services, and modern cloud architecture.
- You will shape this transformation together with the Director and as a strategic sparring partner of the CTO, responsible for parts of the infrastructure and security roadmap, and implement it operationally with your team.
- Shared responsibility for the stable 24/7 operation of the IT infrastructure (data centers, networks, Wi-Fi, telephony) at all hotel and office locations, including monitoring, backup/recovery, and business continuity – in close coordination with the Director.
- Active involvement in the transformation of the department: Co-developing a modern operational model with ITSM processes (Incident, Change, Problem), KPIs, and SLAs, supporting the gradual insourcing of previously outsourced services, and assisting in the further development of the team.
- Contribution to the further development of the cloud strategy (Azure, Kubernetes, Microsoft 365) and the consolidation of the system landscape together with Software Engineering & Integration.
- Shared responsibility for information security: security architecture, vulnerability and patch management, penetration testing, incident response, risk assessments, as well as implementation of regulatory requirements including reporting.
- Support in managing external service providers and managed service partners, including contract, SLA, and escalation management.
- Participation in the planning and management of the infrastructure and security budget (CAPEX/OPEX) as well as the evaluation and selection of new technologies and partners.
- Participation in company-wide IT projects (rollouts, migrations, security programs), IT integration during acquisitions including due diligence.
- Professional support for IT construction projects, which remain under the responsibility of the Director – with the aim of gradually taking over this area during the handover process.
- Technical leadership of selected subareas of the international team (Vienna, Croatia, Italy) with increasing responsibility, involvement in coaching and team development as well as in building a service- and security-oriented culture.
