3rd Line Systems Administrator - the opportunity

This is a really exciting opportunity to join a leading provider of managed IT & telecoms services, working on a major customer assignment in the Government sector.  You'll be working with tech from Cisco, Juniper, VMWare, Veeam, Microsoft and others.

​

You will be based on a secure site and the nature of the role will mean you'll need to be eligible for SC-level security clearance.  If you're already cleared, then that's an advantage.

​

This is a challenging role, providing systems administration expertise across a range of IT and network infrastructure.  There's plenty of variety and responsibility: the role acts as an escalation point and includes recommending improvements to processes alongside the usual elements of installation and troubleshooting infrastructure and software.

​

The role is on-site 5 days per week and there's a shift rota: 8am-4pm, 9-5, 10-6.

​

The company is a great place to work, with very high levels of staff satisfaction, fantastic opportunities for learning and development and a generous and varied benefits package.
