Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 5+ years of, hands-on IT ops experience - ideally in a company that moves quickly and expects people to take initiative
  • Equally comfortable with physical IT and operational work - network cabinet one day, vendor negotiation the next
  • Genuinely organised - vendors, subscriptions, documentation and access controls don't slip through the cracks on your watch
  • A clear communicator who collaborates well across teams, whether that's Engineering, Finance or a new employee on their first day
  • Proactive by nature - you flag issues before they escalate and look for ways to improve things without being asked
  • Someone who takes compliance seriously and knows how to translate policy into sustainable, practical process
  • Admin-level experience with Google Workspace and/or Microsoft 365
  • Hands-on MDM experience — Jamf, Intune, or similar
  • Solid understanding of networking fundamentals — DNS, DHCP, VLANs, VPNs, firewalls
  • Experience managing SSO (Okta, Google SSO, or similar)
  • Practical familiarity with SOC 2 and/or ISO 27001 IT controls
  • A track record managing software licensing and SaaS vendor relationships
  • Server and on-premise hardware experience is a strong plus
  • Clear documentation habits — you write things down in a way that's actually useful to others
