3rd Line IT Support Engineer
Wimbledon | £45,000 - £52,000 | Office-Based | Occasional Client Visits
Are you an experienced 3rd Line or Senior Cloud Engineer looking for a role where you'll have real influence, not just another queue of tickets?
We're partnering with a well-established, growing MSP that is looking to add a 3rd Line IT Support Engineer to its close-knit technical team. This is a senior, varied position offering exposure to Microsoft cloud technologies, infrastructure, networking, security and client-facing project work - with genuine scope to shape how the technical team operates.
You'll work alongside experienced engineers and act as a key escalation point, supporting a diverse client base while leading on projects, improving service delivery, and mentoring less experienced members of the team.
The Role
As a senior member of a small technical team, you'll be involved in:
- Supporting and administering Microsoft 365 environments
- Troubleshooting complex infrastructure, networking and security issues
- Managing and maintaining virtualisation platforms (VMware/Hyper-V) and cloud-based services
- Acting as the senior escalation point for technical incidents
- Leading on firewall, connectivity and endpoint management activities
- Owning project delivery, upgrades and system improvements - on time and on budget
- Acting as a dedicated technical point of contact for key clients
- Producing and maintaining technical documentation
- Building strong relationships with clients and providing a high level of service
About You
We're open to different backgrounds, but you'll ideally have experience with:
- 3rd line support within an MSP, service desk or IT support environment
- Microsoft 365, Windows Server, cloud technologies and virtualisation (VMware/Hyper-V)
- Networking fundamentals including DNS, DHCP, VPNs and firewalls (FortiGate preferred)
- Entra ID, Conditional Access, SharePoint and Intune
- Project management or client management experience, with a track record of delivering on time and budget
- Supporting and troubleshooting complex technical issues
- Working independently and taking ownership of tasks and projects
Experience with MDM platforms, Power BI or automation tools would be advantageous, but isn't essential.
What's on Offer?
- 22 days annual leave (plus Bank Holidays) rising with length of service
- Training budget per employee
- Exposure to a broad range of technologies and client environments
- A genuinely varied role combining support, infrastructure and cloud technologies
- The opportunity to influence how things are done within the business
- A supportive and collaborative team environment
- Clear scope to develop your skills and grow with the company
