Role Description

This is a hands-on technical role within a small, supportive IT team. You’ll work alongside the Head of IT and another IT Engineer, providing IT support while getting exposure to endpoint management, security operations and automation. It’s a great next step for someone early in their IT career who wants to build broad, modern skills - Microsoft 365, Intune, security tooling, AI, automation and scripting - with proper guidance and room to grow.

This isn’t a run-of-the-mill service desk role, it’s a chance to develop technically in a small, fast-moving team where you’ll see the impact of your work directly.
