Job summary
The Cach System Manager will report to the Operational Manager and be responsible for the implementation and administration of the strategic Operational Database (ODB) environments (Cach).

Proactive monitoring and the implementation of defined and documented processes and procedures will be required to ensure 99.9% availability.
