Job Description
The primary focus of the role is to provide support for end users and computers in a large, complex and busy environment. This will encompass all areas of end user computing in a predominantly Microsoft-centric estate as well as several of the normal administrative tasks such as managing asset recording. There will be opportunities to gain experience in server-based technologies and the role would suit someone who would like to progress towards 3rd line support or gain wider technical skills.
The role will entail frequent travel between buildings across the 700-acre site and a clean driving license will be required (additional training will be provided to allow access to all areas of the site)
Due to the sensitive nature of some of the work we do the site is highly regulated so experience in working within frameworks such as ISO27001 and/or TISAX would be an advantage and the ability to obtain SC clearance is a requirement.
