You will join a small, experienced and highly skilled team and will need a broad and deep skillset, working on a range of applications and systems including the expected VIP support of Office 2016 / O365, PCs, Laptops etc also some design and admin of Active Directory, VMWare (VSphere, VDI, Horizon), SCCM or equivalent Build tool and some scripting knowledge for automation (preferably Powershell or similar) as automation is a key focus of the team.

This is split with approximately 20% of your time on design, enhancement and set-up of the environment with 80% providing 1^st/2nd line support and pro-active support.

This is a strong but low ego team where the focus is to provide exemplary support and keep the trading business up and running at all time. You will continuously work on solutions in collaboration with your team mates, sharing ideas on how to make the systems more robust and ultimately requiring less day to day support.
