Job description

Support all users in this global hedge fund as part of a small IT team that covers all IT issues.

You’ll be joining a team with responsibility for all IT, so you’ll get plenty of variety and will be one of the go-to IT generalists on the team.

You will need to be an all-rounder. You’ll need to be ready to support anything from fixing a printer to using PowerShell scripts to automate frustrating, monotonous tasks. You’ll have full access to systems admin, so you won’t have to elevate through other teams to get your work done.

This is a hybrid position. You’ll be paid well, with a salary up to £60,000 plus a generous bonus that could be as high as 30‑35% of your salary if performance is strong. As a global company, there could be future opportunities to travel.

It’s expected that this could be the second or third role of your career and you will cover mainly 1st and 2nd line issues. You’ll be sitting directly on the trading floor, interacting with traders and fixing issues throughout the day. You will need to have worked in a similar, smaller environment.

This is a Microsoft environment, so experience across Windows, Azure, Active Directory and some PowerShell scripting would be great to have. Virtualisation experience and networking experience would also be a huge plus.
