Job description
Enjoy solving complex IT problems, but wish you had more time to get involved in the bigger picture?
Perhaps you’re currently working in 2nd Line Support and want more exposure to infrastructure, networking and projects. Or maybe you’re already in a varied IT role but would love the opportunity to have more ownership and influence over the technology you’re supporting.
Either way, this could be exactly what you’re looking for.
You’ll be joining an established organisation in Cambridge, working as part of a close-knit IT team responsible for a diverse technical environment.
The best part? You won’t be stuck doing the same thing every day.
One day you might be investigating a tricky networking issue, the next you’ll be improving infrastructure, working on a technical project or helping colleagues get the most out of their technology.

What will you get involved in?

- Getting involved in infrastructure upgrades and technical projects, giving you the chance to work on more than just day-to-day support.
- Supporting a variety of technologies across the organisation, including meeting room systems, video conferencing equipment and other AV solutions.
Requirements

- Good knowledge of Windows Server, Windows 11 and Microsoft 365.
- An understanding of networking, including switches, Wi-Fi, DNS, DHCP and general connectivity troubleshooting.
