TMTI is one of the most successful technical support companies in the UK, dealing with a number of major “high street” brands. We are now looking for an experienced System Administrator to join our established team.  The role is responsible for effective provisioning, installation, configuration and maintenance of systems hardware and related infrastructure. The individual will ensure that this infrastructure, as well as installed software, operating systems, and antivirus systems is correctly maintained, patched and conforms to the relevant security policies.

The System Administrator will work closely with the Network Manager in troubleshooting a wide range of issues across the network both proactively and re-actively to ensure resilience, with a helpdesk ticketing system in place to allow effective tracking of raised/resolved errors.

Supported technology will include ‘in office’ infrastructure (Desktop and Laptop machines, printers and other peripherals) as well as co-located hardware (predominantly in UK data-centres).

The role includes the setting up and administration of users within Active Directory, Exchange and Group Policy, configuration of web / mail filters as well as Windows server management.

There will be a requirement to work with in-house developed proprietary systems which will require the successful candidate to work outside of the company’s core opening times. Subsequently a flexible approach to working hours is essential.

Required Skill-Sets:

•    Windows Desktop operating systems - XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10
•    Microsoft Office 2010, 2013, 2016
•    Experience of basic network infrastructure management (switches, cabling, routers and similar)
•    Experience of Windows System Centre family of software
•    Antivirus deployment/ management
•    Experience using Windows Server operating systems – 2008 R2, 2012, 2016 (Physical and Virtual)
•    Understanding of Active Directory, Exchange, Group Policy and similar
•    Understanding of web filters and load balancers
•    Experience in using Cisco firewalls
•    Experience in back-up systems
•    Awareness of standard IT security requirements and best practices
•    Strong problem solving and communication skills
•    Good documentation skills
•    Ability to quickly learn new skills
•    Ability to work under own initiative
•    To be a ‘people person’, able to communicate at all levels within the business

Own transport is essential due to location and client visits
