Job description
Reporting to the Senior IT Manager, you'll own a broad and genuinely varied infrastructure remit. Day-to-day, that means delivering high-quality support across 1st, 2nd and 3rd line, maintaining and improving our Microsoft environment, and leading infrastructure projects end-to-end.
You'll be the person colleagues across the business turn to when something complex needs diagnosing, when a project needs leading, or when a system needs tightening up. You'll work across our UK sites and in close collaboration with teams in the US and Hungary, so strong communication and a customer-first mindset matter as much as your technical credentials.
What you'll be doing
- Resolving complex hardware, software and network issues across the group, working to SLAs and making sure users feel genuinely supported
- Installing, configuring and maintaining Microsoft Windows Server, Microsoft 365, Active Directory and Hyper-V virtualisation environments
- Leading the planning, implementation and testing of infrastructure projects - server migrations, system upgrades and cross-business initiatives
- Performing advanced system monitoring, performance tuning and proactive maintenance to keep infrastructure available, optimised and secure
- Providing end-user support for Windows laptops, desktops and mobile devices
- Creating and maintaining clear documentation - system configs, technical procedures, project plans and user guides
- Collaborating with cross-functional teams on complex technical issues and staying ahead of industry trends to recommend improvements
- Enforcing and promoting IT security best practices across everything you do
Requirements
