Holiday: 22 days Hardware: Specify your own equipment we don't force outdated laptops on technical staff Training: Vendor-led training for NinjaOne, HaloPSA, CIPP formal upskilling budget separate from certification allowance Must have strong managed service provider experience Be the ultimate escalation point for our service desk owning the most complex technical incidents across our diverse SME client base. This isn't about clearing a ticket queue. You'll be architecting solutions whilst mentoring other line engineers through diagnostic methodology they haven't encountered before. Reporting to the Service Desk Manager, you'll define how we approach the technical challenges that determine whether clients renew or leave. MSP 3.0 reality check: We're implementing NinjaOne RMM to operate as a proactive, automation-first MSP rather than reactive break-fix. Your role includes configuring NinjaOne for maximum effectiveness building automated remediation workflows, establishing intelligent alerting thresholds that reduce noise whilst catching real issues, and creating monitoring policies that prevent incidents instead of just logging them. Proactive monitoring, self-healing scripts, predictive maintenance these aren't buzzwords here. They're how we can continue to continue to evolve our business with ever increasing intelligence and automation, using cutting edge MSP tools. Technical stack you'll own: Core MSP platforms: HaloPSA (PSA), NinjaOne RMM (implementing now you'll drive configuration), CIPP (M365 security automation), Hudu (documentation) M365 ecosystem: Full tenant administration, Exchange Online, Intune/Endpoint Manager, Conditional Access, DLP, ATP Infrastructure: Azure AD/Entra ID, hybrid on-prem/cloud, firewalls (vendor-agnostic), network routing/switching, VPN architectures Automation: We build custom solutions, not just copy/paste from forums. Get your API on!

When you propose automated remediation workflows or infrastructure changes, the conversation is about efficacy, not whether it fits a pre-approved vendor list. 18-staff MSP, financially stable, zero private equity ownership. We make technical investments based on operational merit, not quarterly EBITDA targets. Genuine progression: You're joining as we scale from 18 to 40 staff over 24 months. We are looking for rock stars to take the lead on this exciting journey. We promote based on technical capability and leadership demonstration, not tenure. IND/LET
