We’re excited to be partnering with a successful start-up who is now into the growth stage and looking for a talented Support Engineer to join them. The company is highly profitable, and they know that this success is only possible through having the best professionals in the industry onboard, so you can expect to be joining a technically strong team who are well supported by this organisation. They have an amazing office in Central London with incredible perks, and can offer genuinely outstanding scope to grow and develop.

The IT team has been doing everything, as they have grown, they are now looking for a Support Specialist who can push the Support to another level, taking full responsibility for redesigning and implementing support processes to add maximum value for the teams you’ll be supporting.

With your expertise, you’ll evaluate the technology and infrastructure being used for the support and bring in new ideas and suggestions to increase service delivery. You’ll also need to work with consideration for security at all times, so if you have experience in this area, we’d definitely be keen to talk to you.

The role is customer orientated, where your sense of urgency and your love in helping people out is paramount. Most of what you’re going to see are Windows (80%) and a little bit of Linux (20%), but they’re open to talking to people with slightly different backgrounds:

Core technical skills:

• Strong experience administering a large Microsoft Windows desktop environment for a fast-paced business
• Experience automating administration tasks using scripting languages – ideally Powershell and Python
• Experience with Ansible and SCCM is a strong plus
• Experience of managing office facilities and building Management Systems is a plus

Salary: open, as we are looking for the right person for the role.
