    HEAD OF IT INFRASTRUCTURE - LONDON HQ As Head of IT Infrastructure, you will be the operational anchor of the team: owning the infrastructure and security estate across all 28 properties, managing a small internal team, and working closely with the VP of IT to shape the direction of the function as it grows.

Locke leads with bold expression; Cove by Locke refines that same spirit into a quieter, more streamlined approach. Guests come to rest, work, or escape.
