Job description

We're working with a growing Managed Services Provider that partners with organisations to modernise their IT environments through cloud-first solutions.

They're looking for an experienced Level 3 MSP Engineer who enjoys solving complex technical challenges, leading cloud migrations and becoming a trusted technical advisor to customers.

This is a senior technical role where you'll work across Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, infrastructure and cyber security, helping customers move from traditional on-premises environments into modern cloud solutions.

What You'll Be Doing

• Lead infrastructure and Microsoft 365 migration projects into Azure.
• Design and implement modern Microsoft cloud solutions.
• Configure and manage Microsoft Entra ID, identity and authentication services.
• Deploy and manage Microsoft Intune, endpoint policies and device management.
• Deliver Microsoft 365 solutions across Exchange Online, SharePoint and Teams.
• Configure Azure networking, virtual infrastructure and cloud services.
• Support virtualisation environments including VMware and Hyper-V.
• Work across networking environments including Cisco Meraki and Aruba.
• Implement Microsoft security technologies including Defender, Sentinel and Essential Eight controls.
• Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across projects.

What We're Looking For

• Azure cloud infrastructure and customer migrations.
• Microsoft Entra ID and identity/access management.
• Microsoft Intune and endpoint management.
• Microsoft 365 implementations and tenant migrations.
• Windows Server, Active Directory and hybrid cloud environments.
• Azure networking, virtual machines, storage and backup.
• VMware and/or Hyper-V.
• Networking technologies such as Cisco Meraki and Aruba.
• PowerShell and Microsoft cloud administration.
• Solution design and technical delivery within an MSP environment.
• MSP tools such as ConnectWise PSA and Datto RMM.

You don't need to tick every box. Strong experience across the Microsoft/Azure ecosystem is key, and there's scope to develop your knowledge across some of the other technologies used within the environment.

Why Apply?

• Join a technically strong, collaborative and cloud-first MSP.
• Work on genuine Azure migration and cloud transformation projects.
• Take ownership of complex technical solutions rather than simply closing tickets.
• Work closely with customers as a trusted technical advisor.
• Opportunity to progress towards Solution Architecture and Technical Leadership.
• Ongoing investment in certifications, training and professional development.

If you're a Level 3 MSP Engineer with strong Microsoft/Azure experience and enjoy working on complex customer environments, we'd love to hear from you.
