The role is deputy director, not director, IT Ops so you probably wouldn't have to deal with her directly.
I'm not a dyed-in-the-wool ops person so don't have the CV nor the inclination to go for it but I would suspect the main issue would be, as a deputy, you get to do all the hard work trying to implement policies and not much of the fun of setting them.
