London-based, highly profitable and extremely high-calibre SME working in the Real Estate sector are seeking an IT Manager to oversee their IT infrastructure, cyber security and data protection.



This is a high-impact role where alongside orchestrating external IT Service Providers, you'll keep systems secure, resilient and running at peak performance while driving continuous improvement across the business.

You'll be fully responsible for a small IT budget (<£1m) and there are no internal management responsibilities.



The organisation has a first-class culture (underscored by their average tenure of close to 7 years).



What you'll do:

• Lead and optimise IT infrastructure, cloud platforms (Microsoft 365 & SharePoint), networks, and core systems alongside our external IT provider.


• Own cyber security - from vulnerability management and patching to incident response (in and out of hours).


• Act as Data Protection Lead, ensuring full GDPR compliance and robust data security.


• Manage hardware lifecycle, asset registers, and supplier performance.


• Provide expert technical support, user guidance, and escalation handling.


• Support audits, maintain documentation, and contribute to IT budgets and strategy.

You'll work closely with the Corporate Services team, Office Manager and Ops Director in a collaborative, flat-hierarchy environment.

What you'll need:

• Strong technical background in IT infrastructure, cloud environments, networking and cyber security.


• Experience with Microsoft 365, endpoint security, and identity/access management.


• Proven track record in information security, vulnerability management, and third-party supplier coordination.


• Good understanding of GDPR and data protection (Data Protection Lead qualification desirable although full training will be provided).


• Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to explain technical issues clearly to non-technical users.


• Experience working with implementation or management / maintenance of SharePoint would be beneficial.


• Cyber Essentials / ISO 27001 knowledge is a big plus.
