Job description

TrueNorth is exclusively recruiting for a Contract M365 / O365 / Level 3 Engineer for a partner based in Newcastle.

This role focuses on clearing an existing backlog of tickets within the Digital Workspace area, as well as some key tactical projects such as a tenancy migration and a global Windows 10 to 11 upgrade. It is a hands-on, execution-focused role, suitable for candidates with prior practical experience in these areas rather than only design and deployment.

Key skills and experience required:

• Core M365 suite
• Teams
• End User Computing (EUC)
• Advanced technical support

Highly Beneficial:

• Windows 10 to 11 migration
• Scripting experience
• SharePoint

The initial contract is for 6 months with a high likelihood of extension. The role is outside IR35.

Due to the nature of the role and evolving requirements regarding onsite presence, the candidate should be able to work 2-3 days per week in Newcastle initially to integrate with the team, which can later be reduced to approximately 2 visits per month.

The daily rate ranges from £375 to £400, depending on experience. Ideally, the candidate should be available immediately, but there is flexibility to wait up to 2 weeks for the right candidate.
