About The Role
We’re looking for a Senior IT Systems Engineer to join our team.
This is a hands-on senior role for someone who enjoys scripting, AI automation, systems integration, and network support. You’ll be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining IT systems and integrations that are secure, scalable, and fit for purpose across the organisation.
You’ll bring strong technical depth across core business systems such as Google Workspace, Mobile Device Management (MDM), identity and access management, and emerging AI and automation tooling. You’ll act as a senior point of contact for IT, helping to improve how we manage access, devices, and operational workflows while ensuring our environment remains reliable, effective, and aligned with best practice.
As a key member of the team, you’ll work closely with IT Support, Platform Engineering, and InfoSec to keep our systems running smoothly and to deliver improvements that raise the bar on automation, security, and user experience. We’re looking for someone who combines strong technical judgment with a pragmatic, delivery-focused mindset, and who can collaborate effectively, prioritise well, and solve complex problems with confidence.
