Infrastructure Engineer (3rd & Team Leader)

Infrastructure Engineer (3^rd & Team Leader) - £35K - £40K, Northampton

We are representing an established organisation based in Central Northampton who have undergone a restructure across their IT division and are subsequently hiring for an Infrastructure Engineer. The decision was made that the department’s structure was too flat, and this is newly created role that will be the buffer between the technical engineers and the Head of IT. This role will involve being hands on technically across Servers & Networks (3^rd Line level) as well as having 2-3 direct reports that you will be managing.

Day to day you will be providing support, as a 3rd line specialist, for the IT infrastructure, databases and systems. In addition, you will also oversee all IT projects and work with the project team to ensure these are delivered accordingly as well as supervision of the team.

Essential Experience:

• 4 years + experience supporting IT infrastructure (systems, networks, databases, desktops)
• Willingness to move into leadership and manage a small technical team
• Strong technical knowledge of Microsoft products (Exchange 2010- 2019, SharePoint 2010-2019, Office2016, Windows 10 Enterprise)
• In-depth experience with Microsoft Server 2008-2019, Hyper-V 2008-2019, Azure AD, and MSSQL 2008-2019
• Familiar with networking technologies such as Cisco Networking (routers, switches, CUCM) Sophos UTM, VPN’s & APN’s
• Excellent communication and ability to prioritise workload

This is an excellent opening for someone with the above technical background who would now like some added responsibility within a leadership capacity.
