Please be assured however that this data is collected in a way that cannot be used to directly identify anyone and is never shared with other third-parties., A well-established and growing MSP in North Essex is looking for an experienced, customer-focused Senior IT Engineer to join their Support & Projects team. This is a varied, hands-on role split between 2nd/3rd line support and project delivery, with a pipeline of 15 Intune migrations already lined up and ready to go. It’s a great opportunity for someone who wants to own projects from scoping through to handover, not just assist on them.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Deliver 2nd/3rd line support to customers via phone, email and portal, with a strong focus on first-touch resolution.
  • Own projects end to end, including Intune migrations, Microsoft 365 tenant migrations and customer onboarding.
  • Carry out server migrations (server to server and server to cloud), infrastructure upgrades and firewall configuration.
  • Deploy and manage Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune and Azure environments alongside traditional on-premise servers and networking.
  • Share knowledge with the wider team and assist with escalated issues, while maintaining accurate time recording and documentation.

Requirements

  • Proven experience in a senior support or engineering role within an MSP, supporting multiple customer environments.
  • Experience independently delivering technical projects from requirements and planning through to testing and handover.
  • Strong knowledge of Windows Server, Active Directory and Hyper-V, plus solid Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune and Azure experience.
  • Good networking knowledge (firewalls, VPNs, VLANs), with image-based backup/DR and Autotask/Datto experience a bonus.
  • A calm, customer-first approach with excellent communication skills.
  • Full UK driving licence and own vehicle essential.
  • Relevant certifications (Microsoft, CompTIA etc) are a plus.

Benefits & conditions

  • Salary up to £35,000 (depending on experience)
  • 22 days holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off
  • A varied role combining support and project delivery
  • A busy pipeline of Intune and Microsoft 365 projects
  • A supportive, customer-centric team within a respected MSP
