More:

We are working with an established organisation that is looking to add a 2nd Line IT Engineer to its technical team. This is a great opportunity for someone who has progressed beyond traditional desktop support and wants to develop their career further into infrastructure, servers and virtualisation. The role will be heavily focused on maintaining and supporting our on-premises infrastructure, with a predominantly physical server environment and a hybrid IT estate. We have historically relied on VMware and are currently transitioning from VMware to Proxmox, so Proxmox experience would be highly advantageous, although strong VMware and general infrastructure experience will be considered.
