• Look after backup, disaster recovery and VoIP telephony, and resolve complex faults as they arise

What Experience is Required

• Proven 3rd line experience personally installing and configuring networks, firewalls and servers, not just supporting systems others have built
• Strong Windows Server, Hyper-V, Azure and Microsoft 365 administration skills
• Hands-on backup and restore experience; 3CX/VoIP knowledge is a significant advantage
