• Manage user provisioning and permissions across Microsoft 365, Salesforce and other business SaaS platforms, applying role-based access principles.
• Configure and maintain Windows and macOS devices through Microsoft Intune, and manage IT assets and inventory for the region.
• Own the office IT infrastructure, including video conferencing and meeting room technology, door access, printers and the communications room, and coordinate with our outsourced network provider on connectivity and access point issues.
• Take on practical, hands-on tasks such as cabling, equipment setup and desk moves
• Work closely with the UK Office Manager, providing practical support with day-to-day office needs and shared projects.
