What it's like to work here

Your contractual location will be our head office in Swindon and there will be an expectation for you to attend the office. However, there is flexibility on where you are based at other times. You will be required to work at a National Trust location for 40-60% of your working week. This will be discussed in more detail at interview.

What you'll be doing

Behind everything our supporters see online, from our public websites to our mobile application, is the robust Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure managed by the Digital Web Operations team.

Driven by a passion for automation, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), resiliency, and security, the team is responsible for deploying, managing, and optimising servers, databases, services, and applications across environments ranging from development to production.

We take a holistic view of how our systems interconnect, tackling a wide range of challenges with a diverse set of tools and approaches. Our success is built on a culture of curiosity, problem-solving, openness, and pride in what we deliver.

We work closely with internal teams across the Trust and our external support partners to ensure our platforms are reliable, scalable, and aligned with organisational needs. These collaborative relationships are essential to delivering high-quality digital services and driving continuous improvement.

Our team brings together individuals with varied backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We actively encourage collaboration, bold thinking, and the creation of an environment that supports not only our team but the wider organisation as well.
